Olga's Zumba class is so much fun. It's a large class coz everyone enjoys it so much & keeps coming back. Olga chooses really good music & has a great personality and sense of humour. We get our exercise in and before we know it the class is over. I Totally recommend Olga's classes.

I enjoy {Olga's} classes as she has a very friendly bubbly personality and gets everyone in the class involved. She has a good memory and knows everyone in the class by name. She has a good selection of music tracks to accompany the session. I highly recommend Olga's classes. |

Olga runs an awesome Zumba program. I feel I'm getting a really good weights as well as aerobic workout and Olga makes these classes lots of fun with lively music and sassy moves. Plus we're out in the open breathing in healthy fresh sea air (in Manly) - what's not to love! |

Our Manly Class Story
ZUMBA GOLD FITNESS
The Manly Zumba Gold Fitness class had been running for several years on Wednesday mornings through FSG before Olga took over as instructor on 27 September 2017.
When FSG entered voluntary administration in June 2018, the new service provider chose not to continue the Manly and Inala Zumba Gold classes. To keep the classes going, Olga successfully applied to have them included in the Brisbane City Council Active & Healthy Program, with the first Council-funded class held on 25 July 2018.
From 31 January 2019, the Manly class moved from Wednesday to Thursday mornings, where it continues today.
ZUMBA GOLD TONING
Zumba Gold Toning classes were offered at Manly from October 2020 until December 2022. The classes were discontinued due to consistently low attendance.
ZUMBA GOLD FITNESS AND TONING
Since October 2023, the Zumba Gold Fitness class at Manly has incorporated toning tracks using light hand weights, giving participants the benefits of both cardio and light strength training in a single class.

Three years on and still doing it and still loving it! Olga’s class at Manly, opposite the ocean is excellent. We move, we exercise our body and our mind. Giggles along the way and coffee after. Great morning and feeling better for it!

I look forward to these sessions immensely. They are fun, motivational and ever evolving. I feel connected to my community through these sessions and would be devastated if they ceased.
