Rocco Forte Hotels partners with wellness guru for weekend packages

Rocco Forte Hotels has partnered with sport scientist and renowned fitness expert, Joanna Hall to offer WalkActive Retreats, a wellness-boosting weekend package available this autumn at Brown’s Hotel, The Balmoral and Hotel Savoy.

With distinct wellness experiences available in three stunning cultural locations: London, Edinburgh and Florence, each city provides the perfect backdrop for guests to learn how to perfect their posture and enhance muscle tone to turbo-charge their fitness routine.

Guided by Hall, nourish your mind and body with a two-night stay, nutritious breakfasts, lunches and dinners, technique and posture workshops and invigorating cultural walks to see the city sights while using the WalkActive method.

Created by Hall, one of the UK’s leading diet and movement specialists, published author and also a regular on TV – most recently as a resident fitness expert on ITV’s This Morning, WalkActive is an effective walking system that is scientifically verified to improve posture, reduce joint stress, trim your waistline, increase walking speed by up to 24% and optimize calorie burn.

Hall said, ‘WalkActive retreats are not a no pain, no gain mentality, rather an educational process that connects you with the way your body should move, so you look better, feel better and perform better all through walking.’

The WalkActive Retreats stay true to the Rocco Forte wellness ethos of offering a balanced and integrated approach to health with state-of-the-art techniques and programmes individualised to every guest.
