What is Zumba Gold TONING?

Zumba® Gold-Toning is a modified Zumba Gold Fitness class with the addition of hand weights to create a redefining total body workout to shape those muscles!

​Benefits of Zumba Gold Toning...

• Low to moderate-intensity strength training exercises are essential to prevent a dramatic reduction in muscle mass, muscle strength, atrophy and sarcopenia (loss of skeletal muscle mass).
• Other benefits of combining dance with weight training include:
  • improved bone density (to prevent osteoporosis)
  • improved joint mobility and range of motion (to help you perform your daily activities pain-free)
  • improved posture, balance and coordination

​How Zumba Gold Toning works...

• ​The Zumba® Gold-Toning program takes the basic Zumba® Gold dance-fitness party and adds in lightweight Zumba® Toning Sticks (or dumb bells) to enhance muscle strength, tone and endurance.
• You can enjoy an energising mix of cardio and dynamic resistance exercises to a variety of tantalising rhythms including Merengue, Salsa, Cumbia, Tango, Belly Dance, Reggaeton and Flamenco!

​Who Zumba Gold Toning is for...

• ​Every class is designed to be easy enough that everyone can join the party and feel the beat.
• Zumba Gold Toning classes are especially suited to active older adults, participants with mild injuries or other special considerations, and those just starting their journey to a fit and healthy lifestyle.

What you need for Zumba Gold TONING classes...

• Wear your workout gear or comfortable clothes that you can exercise in.
• Make sure you wear closed-toe supportive shoes that allow you the freedom to pivot and twist, such as cross trainers, dance/jazz sneakers or Zumba shoes. You don't want shoes that have too much grip as these will "stick" to the floor and end up jarring your ankles, knees and/or hips.​ Flip flops or sandals are not suitable.
• You'll need light hand weights, such as:
  • Zumba Toning Sticks - choose from 1 LB Light Green (1l punor 2.5 LB Purple Toning Sticks. You can purchase them online here: www.zumbashop.com.au.
  • 0.5 KG (or max 1 KG) dumb bells from a sports store or department store
  • small water bottles filled with water
  • ankle/wrist weights
• Bring your water bottle. There will be drink breaks during the class. You'll need to keep hydrated as you work out!
• You may also wish to bring a small towel to wipe down the sweat of having so much fun! 
• You do not need a large towel or a yoga mat as there is no floor work in the class.

Where to go for Zumba Gold TONING classes

• All in-person Zumba Gold FITNESS classes include 3-4 TONING tracks, so you're welcome to bring light hand weights to these classes (up to 1kg each).
• ​Complete Zumba Gold TONING classes are available ONLINE only.
