Health is a state of mind and wellness is a state of being. With plenty of wellness retreats to visit, guests don’t necessarily have to sign up for a week or two weeks of detoxing to find your zen. 

The Mövenpick Hotel Colombo launched a unique wellness program this week, which will take place daily at the Wellness Centre on the 23rd floor, taking measures to expand their fitness offerings and paying more attention to meditative, full-body-and-mind classes like yoga. 

The hotel now offers Zumba, yoga, contemporary dance and other fitness activities everyday of the week, 23 storeys high with sprawling ocean views. 

The seven instructors bring with them a wealth of experience and join the hotel’s wellness program from various backgrounds.
