What I’m looking for are older instructors that are doing contemporary workouts. If you have any YouTube workouts with older instructors that you like, I would love to see them

For example, here’s one with Lisa Sherman. She’s probably 50+ years old and in wonderful physical condition. Lisa Sherman workout

Skipped around in the clip you posted.... I love that she uses a football. It does seem as though she gives really detailed form pointers.

she's a good singer too - she has the same hobbies that i have - fitness and being in a band. she sings Tori Amos' Winter.

in answer to your question, the majority of instructors i've seen, both on DVD and youtube, tend to be >50. there's some young spring chickens, both male and female, appearing on youtube, however, the majority are at least 30 YO.

Caroline Girvan is pretty young, and I do know a lot of young people will find workouts on YouTube, but from anecdotally listening to my students, I think a lot of them prefer going to a gym in person. For the rich kids, it's all about Peleton.

Here’s an older Bernadette Giorgi working out in her hotel room. She starts with a nice towel stretch. She’s aged beautifully

Just b moved in Myrtle Beach

I found Rachel inspiring. She's an older woman and in excellent physical shape. It's refreshing to workout with someone around my age.
Thank you for sharing! Recently, I kept seeing her channel in my recommendations. I tried one of her workouts yesterday and really liked it. It had a bit of everything: lower body, upper body, core, and stretching. I'll link it below in case anyone wants to check it out.

As a side note, I really like the background/set and the colors of her outfit!

I did it in the evening! I was tired that day and it felt "just right".
