Zumba Gold chair class: For the active older adult, wheelchair or deconditioned participants, or anyone who may not be able to stand up for long periods of time while exercising.
This particular video is what got me exercising again. It is full of zest, makes me feel happy, and is SAFE. I still use it every day. Because it is so short, I combine it with other videos. I know the producers of Zumba do not make a seated Zumba Gold dvd (I looked everywhere), but if they ever do decide to do one, I hope they invite this instructor to make the video. I have lost 44 pounds, and my triglycerides have gone from 700 to 330. My life is changing! Thanks so much!!
I'm sorry but I cried a little seeing this and imagining my grandma and mother (< who is very overweight) trying this. I'm going to show them this and try to get them involved with Zumba. Thank you so much for your video!
This was so awesome! I use a wheelchair full time and have always wanted to try Zumba, but had no clue how from my chair. Thanks for posting this video and please post more soon!
Awesome, amazing, fun, do-able!!!! Thanks for sharing! I hope you do a lot more of this zumba chair routines! I'm most definitely following you for inspiration!!!!! :)
This is interesting. I have periodic Gout attacks and a lot of heel spur and ankle instability pains so walking is becoming increasingly painful. I need to get some weight off this frame but it's hard to figure out where to start when my feet hurt all the time. Anyone have good experiences with this?
Thank you so much for providing this choreography! I can't wait to show this to my mother. She would need to do Zumba in a chair if she attended a Gold class, and this would show her that EVERYBODY can do Zumba -- including her! Thanks :)
I am a senior chair and arthritis teacher and this YT video is very well presented and easy to follow. Some of the presenters on YT do not seem to be aware of body alignment and safety issues for senior.
god bless you for posting this so many people wonder why those people on tv are so morbidly obese but its because they probly couldnt stand might have sustained some type of injury that cause them not to be able to stand very long and if they had known about excerise like these to help maybe just maybe thier life would have been a little different. god bless you and i thank you for posting this!
Love this it makes me smile every time I do it. I would love more do you have any more routines? I wish I could get a DVD of your routines I simply love this one. I had never tried Zumba before as I need seated exercises but this is simply great.
All the big chains needs to pay attention. LAFitness, 24 Hour Fitness, Golds Gym, etc. It's not like everyone is able bodied or young. Some people have arthritis, some have other medical issues that make it difficult to stand, or walk for long periods of time. Not to mention some people have weight bearing issues too. Get on Facebook, Yelp, and their websites and let them know!
I have been watching this video over and over again. I have always wanted to do Zumba but, I cannot stand or walk well at this point. There is another gentleman on youtube that does this as well but, he doesn't have any cues and I cannot follow him. So I use this one 6 times in a row. I am requesting more videos like this and longer ones as well so I can get the workout at one time instead of stopping and having to restart. I have looked on line for full video, alas nothing! please help.
I'd like to make an addition to my last comment. To those just starting out and feeling like it's to hard to do lots of exercise, I wanted to say that when I started I did only this one video, and it was hard for me to get through it. Yep. Then I worked up to three times through, then added a couple of other exercise videos. This video is now part of routine, and I use it to begin my program every day. Be of good cheer, and take just one little step forward to begin! You can do it!!!
@susiecuse11 There is a trainer named Anne Burnell. She has a website as well as many YT videos. It's called Stronger Seniors. She does a lot of really good routines. She offers DVDs on her website as well. She has 2 YT channels, StrongerSeniors and annebanned. Just thought it may help you. I am hoping to to be able to post some Zumba chair videos in the near future. I am seeing that there is a need for them. Best wishes!

Thank you for giving a version of Zumba that wheelchair users can use, or approximate! It's fun, and we need fun ways to work out too!
I'm sorry but I cried a little seeing this and imagining my grandma and mother (< who is very overweight) trying this. I'm going to show them this and try to get them involved with Zumba. Thank you so much for your video!
So good to see a fun class for those who cannot stand or thump their feet for long periods. My favorite song too. Nice cueing.
Love the people sharing their chairs! Great movement.
I have arthritis and can't do any leaping around so this is perfect, iv tried to find a chair group locally but no luck yet so thank you x
I am wheelchair bound and have always wanted to try zumba!!! Thanks for this!!!

I agree, I do Zumba seated but I need high-energy. Most of the Zumba (Gold) seated routines I have tried don't even raise my heart rate.
I so can't wait to tell my mom that YES she can do zumba too! =0)
Wow! This look great. Where can one train to become an insturctor of this?
Great routine. The most fun exercise video I have seen in ages.
Can't believe you've only made one video ??
GREAT JOB!!
How can I find out about becoming an instructor?
thanks for the help/tip, will try this one at work with our chair bound people it could be fun.
Where is this at I am in a wheel chair and would love to do something like this

The main instructor looks like the ZES Priscilla... I love her!
that's great... rather than sitting dazed.
