RUN TO THE BEACH With summer fast approaching, it will soon be time to dig out our best beach attire from depths of the closet.
And with beach fashion as important these days as the latest hi-tech gadget, what better to look good in it than with a lean and toned figure.
As mentioned in our previous newsletter, HIIT training (high intensity interval training) is great way of burning fat and toning muscle, however if you don’t have the endurance bas complete a session, it will be less effective than we know it can be. Here’s where we come in
We offer a group running class on a Tuesday morning, from 8am - 9am, aimed at building the base endurance you need to make the most of your HIIT sessions. Not only will you b endurance, but running has been proven to increase energy levels, setting you up nicely fo day and indeed, the summer ahead.
This is also a great opportunity to meet like-minded members and quiz the coaches abou other aspects of training that might interest you.
And where better to take a running class than in the tranquil surroundings of London’s Ro parks. All three parks (Hyde, Green and St James’) are frequented by the running class, tak you away from the hustle and bustle of London’s busy streets.

DID YOU KN OW CORINTH IA LONDON SUPPORTS BATTER SEA DOGS & CATS HOME Corinthia Hotel London purchases these adorable puppies and kittens from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, and places them on our younger guests’ beds as part of our turndown service. There’s six furry friends to choose from - Daisy, the Border Collie, Rocky the Rottweiler, and Max the Labrador, or Jazz the black & white cat, Angel the white cat, and Oscar the ginger cat. At ESPA Life at Corinthia we also do everything we can do to help these real life cuddly creatures who are looking for a home. We recently decided to donate all our pre-loved towels to the shelter. Here is the heart-warming reply we received: ‘It was such a lovely surprise and pleasure to open your parcel with all the ‘pre-loved’ towels inside. I can’t tell you how much we appreciate you thinking of our dogs and cats. Since the home was founded in 1860, Battersea has rescued, reunited and rehomed over 3.1 million dogs and cats. With no Government funding to help us with the day to day costs of running the Home, it really is no exaggeration to say that without your help we wouldn’t be here to help the thousands of other dogs and cats who find themselves without a home each year. So, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much again for the kindness you have shown our animals.’
