Les Mills

The Les Mills programs are efficiently designed to gain fitness, cardio work out and create the harmony between the body and mind. These programs are in 80 countries and have millions of satisfied clients. Holmes Place brings 3 the most favorite programs to the clubs in Prague:

BODYPUMP™

BODYPUMP™ is the original barbell class that shapes, tones and strengthens your entire body. Often referred to as ‘Pump´ by those who love it, it´s one of the world´s fastest ways to get in shape. This 60-minute addictive workout challenges all of your major muscle groups by using the best weight-room exercises such as squats, presses, lifts and curls. The key to BODYPUMP™ is THE REP EFFECT™, a breakthrough in fitness training focusing on high repetition movements with low weight loads. This will help you achieve strength and introduce lean body muscle conditioning. With the latest chart topping music, highly trained instructors and your choice of weight, get the results you are looking for – and fast!

BODYCOMBAT™

BODYCOMBAT™ is the empowering cardio workout where you are totally unleashed. This fiercely energetic program is inspired by martial arts and draws from a wide array of disciplines such as karate, boxing, taekwondo, tai chi and muay thai. Supported by driving music and powerful role model instructors, you strike, punch, kick and kata your way through calories to superior cardio fitness. Like all the LES MILLS™ programs, a new BODYCOMBAT™ class is produced every three months with new music and choreography.

BODYBALANCE™

BODYBALANCE™ is the Yoga, Tai Chi, Pilates workout that builds flexibility and strength and leaves you feeling centered and calm. Controlled breathing, concentration and a carefully structured series of stretches, moves and poses to music create a holistic workout that brings the body into a state of harmony and balance. Like all the LES MILLS™ programs, a new BODYBALANCE™ class is released every three months with new music and choreography. (For copyright reasons this program is known as BODYFLOW™ in the USA).


This week, in more than 13,000 clubs, in 75 countries, millions of people will put aside whatever else is happening in their lives and lose themselves for an hour in the pure exhilaration of one of our ten LES MILLS™ group fitness classes. And we want you to be a part of it too.

With Les Mills you´re not just exercising, you´re joining in on something bigger than yourself – a revolution. You´ll fall in love with fitness as our passionate instructors and inspiring music tracks guide you through a huge variety of workouts that will change your life.

You´ll sweat, you´ll shout, you may even curse us, but you´ll leave feeling extraordinary. And tomorrow you´re likely to come back and do it all again.

Our Culture
Les Mills is a community of like-minded people, with a culture that celebrates passion, energy and good health. We pride ourselves on being the ones who turn up their sleeves when it comes to hard work. The ones that ‘dig it in´, scream ‘hell yeah´ when the instructor barks ‘ten more´. Those who view sweat on their brows like a crown of achievement. The ones who don´t just step up, they turn it up.

Our Values
Values are something hard to describe. You´ll get the best sense of what ours are when you take on one of our group fitness classes. It´s in the atmosphere, in the music, and in the buzz you have when you´ve finished your work out. But when we do put our values in words, we talk about One Tribe, Be Brave, and Change the World.

Our People

Behind the amazing culture of Les Mills are our people. And our people are on a global quest to change lives. We call ourselves a tribe, and it means we´re always working towards the same goal; we work together in the battle for a fitter world. We´re brave, motivated and always seeking new opportunities. And along the way, we ensure everything we do is world-class. The enthusiasm we have for life-changing fitness has spread to thousands of people around the world who are now part of the Les Mills tribe. And when we all come together, watch out! The latest LES MILLS™ Global Summit brought nearly 700 trainers and agents together in Auckland, New Zealand. We were re-inspired and re-united in the city where it all began. And from our combined energy came something very special…

Our Haka

The Les Mills fitness warriors now have a powerful rallying call in the form of our very own Maori haka. The haka is a traditional form of dance from the native Maori people of New Zealand. Best known as a war dance performed by men, haka can also be performed at ceremonies and as a welcome or a celebration. And some – like the Les Mills haka – can be performed by a group that includes women. The Les Mills haka was created by New Zealand´s leading Kapa Haka specialist, and was first performed at our Global Summit. It holds a clear, compelling message about overcoming obesity and sedentary lifestyles as one tribe.
