W Maldives has partnered with Ewa Chodakowska, one of the most popular personal trainers in Europe, to host a wellness week.

The “Detox. Retox. Repeat Week” will take place from November 12-19, and will involve daily workout and diet advice sessions with Ewa and her husband Lefteris Kavoukis, who is a book co-author and fitness instructor with over 20 years of experience.

Additionally, Marta Kielak, the official Be Active dietitian, will be holding daily body and weight measurements using the Body Composition Analyser. The machine gives clinically accurate and personalised readings, which will help the event participants understand the impact of the diet and exercise on their body, and keep them motivated throughout the whole week and after.

“[The programme] will set its participants into the pre-festive mood and help them look and feel fabulous while having lots of fun on the tropical playground. The event will go under the helm of W Hotels’ signature new approach FUEL, which delivers the healthy lifestyle choices to the fun seeking W clientele,” an announcement by the resort read.
