The Guinness World Records world record for the largest pilates demonstration/class was achieved by 3,486 participants in an event organized by Denizli Municipality (Turkey) in Denizli, Turkey, on 2 June 2013.
Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the largest rowing class; it consisted of 191 participants rowing simultaneously and was achieved by Akademischer Sportverband Zürich (Switzerland), in Zurich, Switzerland, on 27 January 2012.
Born to Move is an exercise technique developed by group exercise guru Les Mills aimed at inspiring kids as young as two years to actively engage in fitness and various physical activities.
It is founded on the idea that all children “are born to move” and classes are geared towards achieving a lifelong love of movement, based on the kids’ innate need to move and enjoy.
Swiss International Scientific School Dubai (SISD), in collaboration with Stryx and Reebok, are pleased to announce that their students, staff and parents have accepted the challenge of helping to set a World Record.
