Zumba Gold is Bold!
with Lisa Elliot
![Calendar](https://d9j5qtehtodpj.cloudfront.net/images/icons/color-calendar.png?version=205907)
Zumba Gold is Bold! is designed for all ages - for those new to Zumba, for those who have had an injury, or those who love Zumba, but would like a modified version. Zumba Gold runs for 45 minutes, unlike Zumba that runs for an hour. There is verbal cuing as well as non-verbal cues. The music is the same great, fun, upbeat music. You will sweat and you will receive the many benefits of dancing. The only change is the movements will be less stressful on your joints and your body. It’s a class where you are exercising, but having fun doing it!! This is an in-person class; no class 2/17/25
Lisa Elliot has been a licensed Zumba and Zumba Gold instructor since 2015. Her specialty is Zumba Gold. She thoroughly enjoys getting to know those that come to her classes and seeing them have fun and getting the health benefits of dancing!
