Canyon Ranch Has a New Fitness Package for the Work Hard, Play Hard "Weekend Warrior"

Launching in November at Canyon Ranch Hotel & Spa in Miami Beach, the new "Weekend Warrior" package promises to be fitness intensive but safe on the body. The biggest perk? Specifically created for those who like to work hard and play hard, the three-day program offers the guidance and supervision of the renowned Canyon Ranch Wellness staff and access to the hotel's award-winning facilities. The wide range of activities and many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors also will score high with those regularly confined to their desks.

The "Weekend Warrior" package is available as an add-on to hotel guests or for independent purchase by locals (hotel stay not required!).

Starting on Thursday night and running through Sunday afternoon on select weekends, the package is $550 per person and includes nine meals. The schedule of activities is below and more information can also be found at www.canyonranchmiamibeach.com.
