​What's the difference between Zumba GOLD Fitness and Brisbane City Council's GOLD Program?

  • Zumba Gold Fitness is one of the class formats offered by ZUMBA. For example, Aqua Zumba is another Zumba class format. 
  • Brisbane City Council’s program for seniors is called GOLD (Growing Old & Living Dangerously).
  • Confusingly, they both have GOLD in them, however, they are completely separate from each other.
  • Find out more in my blog post here.
