Yes, ladies and gentlemen, ZumbaChemist is going to her Zumba Gold® license training in mid-July!
Why is this fun and exciting news?
Many folks in all of the venues I've taught at (with the exception of Aqua Zumba® for obvious reasons) have various physical movement issues. Some folks start Zumba® fitness having not done any physical activity for months or years. Some folks start Zumba® fitness after recovering from surgery. Any instructor will tell you, that's GREAT for desiring to get into shape - but as it has been previously pointed out - Zumba® fitness is a fairly high-impact cardiovascular activity. When you're recovering from a knee replacement, back surgery or you've not done physical exercise in a decade or more coming into a Zumba® fitness class can be literal torture for your body. Not only that, your doctor might not find it a great fit for you (and he or she will recommend that you walk!).
That's why Beto drew some of the best trainers in the world to help design the Zumba Gold® program. From Zumba website:
Zumba Gold targets the largest growing segment of the population: baby boomers. It takes the Zumba formula and modifies the moves and pacing to suit the needs of the active older participant, as well as those just starting their journey to a fit and healthy lifestyle. What stays the same are all the elements the Zumba Fitness-Party is known for: the zesty Latin music, like salsa, merengue, cumbia and reggaeton; the exhilarating, easy-to-follow moves; and the invigorating, party-like atmosphere. Active older adults want camaraderie, excitement and fitness as a regular part of their weekly schedule. Zumba Gold is the perfect fit. It’s a dance-fitness class that feels friendly, and most of all, fun.
SO...
If you've tried Zumba® fitness with the ZumbaChemist and found it to be a bit too "intense" for you - don't dismiss Zumba® until you've tried Zumba Gold® with the ZumbaChemist, coming August!!
