Princess Cruises is expanding the onboard fitness classes available with the addition of workouts from the most popular boutique fitness brands in the industry, including Pure Barre, YogaSix and StretchLab starting in mid-February.
According to a recent Statista survey ‘increased exercise’ is once again atop the list of New Year’s resolutions for 2023.
“To many people, continuing their daily exercise routine on vacation gives license to extra special vacation indulgence, and Princess presents world-class options on both the fitness and indulgence fronts,” said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises.
“So whether it’s keeping up with New Year resolutions, offsetting the incredible food and drink on board, or connecting with other fitness fans, we’re excited to offer the most premium and inclusive boutique fitness experiences in the industry.”
Beginning Feb. 20, guests who have purchased all-inclusive packages like Princess Plus and Princess Premier will enjoy complimentary onboard workouts from several of the leading studios from Xponential Fitness, the largest global franchisor of boutique fitness brands, including Pure Barre, YogaSix and StretchLab, with additional brands including Club Pilates, CycleBar, and STRIDE Fitness to follow shortly thereafter.
