Zumba
Gold mainly targets the older population. It is specifically designed to
the needs of the elderly and includes the same kind of music as the Zumba
fitness party class. Zumba Toning is for the people who do their workouts
with toning sticks. Zumba Toning will target the abs, thighs, arms, and
other muscles throughout the body. Zumba Toning is adding sculpting of body
and cardio. Aqua Zumba is Zumba in a swimming pool. The instructor is on
the ledge of the pool instructing while participants mimic his/her moves
while they are submerged waist high in water. Zumba in the circuit is the
dance combined with circuit
training.[8]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zumba#cite_note-8> These
classes usually last 30 minutes and features strength exercises on various
stations in timed intervals. ZumbaKids is a class designed for children
between the ages of 4 and 12. It has the same dance and music styles as a
regular Zumba Fitness class, but has routines designed specifically for
kids. Zumba Gold-Toning is a toning class for older participants with goals
of improving one's muscle strength, posture, mobility, and coordination.
Zumba Sentao is a chair workout that focuses on using body weight to
strengthen and tone the
body.[9]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zumba#cite_note-9> Zumba
instructors have the option to become a ZIN (Zumba Instructors Network)
member to receive bimonthly training DVDs to assist with the creation of
music and choreography for their personal Zumba classes. ZIN members are
the only instructors allowed to register for the new Zumba Core training
class which helps to incorporate more core training into any type of Zumba
class.

Because Zumba offers different options, proponents of Zumba claim that it
is safe for all ages.[10] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zumba#cite_note-10> At
least some of the classes are specifically aimed at elderly people, to help
them build strength, improve motion and posture, and
socialize.[11]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zumba#cite_note-11>
