COLUMBUS, OH—March 2, 2020—Involve, a brand activation agency with extensive experience inside the fitness, health and wellness categories, was recently awarded the public relations account for Les Mills US.

Les Mills is the global leader in group fitness offering more than 20 different science-backed workouts through live, virtual and Les Mills On Demand digital experiences. Some of its most widely recognized programs include BODYPUMP, BODYCOMBAT, BODYFLOW/BODYBALANCE, THE TRIP, and LES MILLS GRIT.

Science-driven programming, a focus on training and support, and diligent work toward a fitter planet separate the 52-year-old industry pioneer from the competition. In fact, Les Mills is one of the very few, if not the only, programming industry supplier to offer scientifically-based workouts. Programming is updated quarterly and are tested in its own Les Mills gyms (in New Zealand), as well as in pilot gyms worldwide prior to launch. In a world that races to release, the Les Mills approach ensures members experience each workout at its best.

“Creating a fitter planet – what an incredible companywide goal. And it benefits us all. From creating workouts that make people fall in love with exercise, to offering BORN TO MOVE workouts to combat childhood obesity, to raising money for clean water for children in Africa and more—the Les Mills team really lives its mission,” said Craig Lerner, president, Involve. “We are honored to have Les Mills in our portfolio of global fitness leaders and lend our category expertise, marketing experience and public relations talents to helping them achieve this goal and grow in prominence as a top fitness brand worldwide.”

“With a core belief that everything centers on relationships, we know Involve’s expertise will facilitate meaningful experiences between Les Mills and our audience,” said Ashley St. Jules, VP Marketing, Les Mills US. “In an industry robust with options, we are excited to partner with Involve to support us in our mission of creating a fitter planet, one life-changing fitness experience at a time. “
