Pullman takes fitness into a new era with Les Mills through a powerful mix of innovative exercise programming and community engagement
PARIS – Pullman Hotels & Resorts, a leading brand within the Accor group, is pleased to announce a strategic global partnership with Les Mills, the world’s largest creator of group fitness classes available at health clubs, online, and now, at select Pullman destinations. Pullman Power Fitness Fueled by Les Mills makes Pullman the first boutique fitness hotel brand with around-the-clock innovative fitness classes, in-room fitness amenities, challenging boot camps and Pullman Fitness Squad events, while unleashing the full experience of the Pullman Power Fitness community.
The Pullman Power Fitness Fueled by Les Mills partnership is a key element of Pullman’s latest approach to health and wellness – Pullman Power Fitness – replacing the stale one-size-fits-all hotel gym environment with a bold, artful, social approach to contemporary fitness. More than a gym, Pullman Power Fitness taps into a new era of training diversity, integrated technology and the support of a like-minded community to help Pullman guests stay on top of their fitness game.
“At Pullman, we’ve redesigned our fitness platform to be as action-oriented, diverse and dynamic as the busy lives of our guests – full of great music, plenty of fun and opportunities for safe social connections,” said Lilian Roten, Global Vice President, Brand Management, Pullman Hotels & Resorts. “Just as our guests are motivated to become the best versions of themselves, they have motivated us to look beyond the walls of the gym and create a platform that is more engaging, more inclusive and more enjoyable than what they typically find at most hotels. Our new partnership with Les Mills takes our wellbeing programming to the next level, with immersive experiences, continuously updated content and a Pullman Fitness Squad of creative individuals connected by passion and a shared mindset.”
