@Maggsmcg I've been teaching group ex. for 12 years. Most people will do exactly what the instructor is doing, regardless of ability.

@SingingTrainer This is not what Zumba Gold is supposed to be like.

Definitely no turning round on the spot like this, balance is a problem for many oldies, if the routine's too complicated they won't be back

@smasonvacation There might be a mirror we can't see on the video, but yeah. I'm taking a zumba gold class now and this looks a lot more complicated. I've taken a few classes of regular zumba though and that was just insane.

I agree with both comments. I'm certified to teach to elderly, Zumba has a lot of jumping not suitable for the majority of those people. But i took the regular zumba training, and this type of class often is full of jumps with lots of arms, and no cues. This is probably the way Zumba teaches the Gold version, but i agree to the advice to take it down a notch. Maybe the Zumba leaders should review the Gold approach before somebody hurt themself...

360 degree pivoting. 360 degree turns in general. jumping on one foot. 1:15 blue shirt lady almost falls, and is ignored. turned away from participants. no build up. no verbal cueing. no visual cueing. lateral jumps on one foot. ballistic movements above head. this at best is basic zumba. stick to the formula. zumba gold is a wonderful program when taught correctly. this is dangerous.

Most adult people no matter what age know if their bodies cannot do a routine and adjut accordingly. I do. I do normal Zumba classes and dont jump if it hurts!!! I am not quite ready for total GOLD classes yet.

OMG! Wrong on so many levels
What is the instructor thinking with that outfit?!?!?!?!?
Not good for seniors or deconditioned participants. No jumping and no smooth transitions noted here. Not a safe choreograph routine for Gold participants.
