“Carnival experienced great success with the first Mind/Body Cruise
because today’s consumers place such a high emphasis on health and
well-being,” said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO. “For the
second Mind/Body Cruise, we’ve put together an impressive group of
fitness experts who will help guests take full advantage of their
wide-ranging knowledge and expertise.”

Commented Teri Hanson, assistant fitness editor for Shape who is also
the program director for this year's sailing, “I have chosen a team of
experts who have been featured in our magazines numerous times.
Together, we will bring the pages of Shape and Men's Fitness to life
with fun and interactive classes that will sculpt the body and
rejuvenate the spirit."

While on board, the experts will put participants through their paces
in a series of heart-pumping workouts with energetic fat-burning and
body-sculpting classes, including Beach Body Workout, Pilates Sculpt,
Strength Training and Circuit Training. Home-based gym workout plans
will provide guests with fitness regimens to continue after their
cruise.

For those looking to jumpstart their body from the inside, a series of
interactive, informative and motivating nutrition lectures, including
“The Real Simple Diet” and “How to Age-Proof Your Body,” will be
presented by the nationally recognized experts.

No transformation would be complete without a boost to the spirit, and
the experts will offer invigorating tai chi, qigong and yoga classes
taught on deck in the breezy sea air. Participants will return home
refreshed with a deeper understanding of personal health and fitness.
