Who is Carol Baker?
Carol Baker is a certified fitness instructor and nutrition coach with over a decade of expertise in the health and wellness industry.
She is passionate about empowering women over 40 to achieve their fitness goals and confidently navigate the challenges of menopause.
With more than 10 years of experience teaching Zumba, Carol combines her love for dance fitness with her dedication to helping others stay active and energized.
In recent years, she has expanded her focus to include nutrition, weight loss, and menopause coaching, addressing a growing demand for personalized support within the community.
Outside of her work, Carol enjoys dancing, cooking, walking her beloved dog, tending to her garden, and embracing a healthier lifestyle to make the most of life after 50.
Dance and fitness have always been at the heart of my life.
In 2011, I discovered Zumba® Fitness, and everything just fell into place. By October 2012, I proudly became a licensed instructor.
Today, I hold licenses in seven Zumba® specialties, with a deep passion for Aqua Zumba® and Zumba Gold®. I’m drawn to the energy, the music, and the pure joy it brings to people of all ages and fitness levels. As I continue to evolve professionally, my focus is expanding to Zumba Gold®, tailored for active older adults and individuals new to fitness. I’m also working toward teaching seated movement classes in aged care settings, making fitness accessible and inclusive for everyone.
Apart from my group fitness expertise, I’m also a certified Nutrition Coach and Weight Management Coach. This holistic approach allows me to help my clients not just move better, but feel their best—inside and out.
My mission is simple: to inspire people to embrace movement, build confidence, and achieve lasting wellness—at every stage of life.
Why DanSENfit?
After experiencing the challenges of menopause and the lack of tailored fitness programs for women over 40, Carol decided to create DanSENfit. Her goal is to empower women to take control of their health and well-being through fitness and nutrition coaching that is catered specifically for women over 40 and going into their senior years.
At DanSENfit with Carol Baker, we believe that age is just a number and every woman deserves to feel strong and vibrant.
Our mission is to inspire and empower women over 40 to Activate their Best Life by prioritising their health and well-being through fitness, nutrition and menopause coaching.
We are also dedicated at improving the health and fitness of our aged care population, which is often forgotten about.
As we age, it is essential to ensure that we continue to have good nutrition and keep up our strength & fitness training in order to live a long and happy life.
That's where we come in! We can come directly to your facility, or you can simply turn us on the big screen and watch!
