The partnership between Celebrity Cruises and the lifestyle brand fronted by A-list actor Gwyneth Paltrow has taken another step with a series of four Caribbean cruises departing from Florida beginning this OCT.
Some of goop’s favourite wellness practitioners will board select Celebrity cruises, offering guests restorative and expanding classes for the mind, body, and soul.
The exclusive onboard programming includes a range of physical, mental and spiritual well-being sessions including workouts and mindfulness sessions with a goal of enriching guests' collective well-being during their cruise.
"As our guests have returned to travel, they've expressed how sailing has been a source of healing for them after a very challenging year," said Celebrity Cruises President and CEO Lisa Lutoff-Perlo.
"Nowhere else can guests experience this powerful confluence of the serenity of the sea with physical and emotional wellness."
"Physical, mental, and spiritual well-being are inextricably connected—and how fun to explore all, on the water, in the Caribbean," said Kiki Koroshetz, goop's Senior Wellness Director and contributor to Celebrity's Women in Wellness group.
"We look forward to sharing the wisdom of an incredible group of teachers with Celebrity Cruises' guests."
The two companies have been partnered since JAN 2020, and Paltrow was named the cruise line’s Well-being Ambassador in APR 2021.
The goop team has curated new wellness offerings for Celebrity's ships including fitness kits for AquaClass guests, on-demand wellness classes on stateroom TVs, a custom smoothie and more.
