The pages of Shape and Men’s Fitness magazines come to life during Carnival’s third annual Mind/Body Cruise, starting December 2. You’ll enjoy seven days of fun, fitness and de-stressing on Carnival Glory as you sail from Port Canaveral to the Western Caribbean with experts from Shape and Men’s Fitness magazines.

Whether you’re a fitness fanatic eager for new challenges or a workout wannabe searching for the right program, the Mind/Body Cruise will help jump-start your strategy for long-term healthful living.

If you’re a novice, the program begins with basic strength training and workouts such as Easy Does It Yoga. If you’re a fitness buff who wants to step up to advanced programs, you’ll enjoy the more intensive yoga, tai chi and Pilates workouts on deck.

The Rhythm Is Gonna Get You

Onboard Carnival Glory, you can choose from a stellar lineup of fitness activities.

• Jamaican/Caribbean Cardio Dance gets you moving with upbeat music and steel drums.
• Reggae Yoga helps you zone in to gentle reggae tunes.
• Power Ball Pilates builds strength using small, lightweight gel balls.
•• Focus on the Core strengthens your abdominals and lower back.
• Cardio-Sculpt combines muscle conditioning with low-intensity aerobics.
• Quiet Mind/Supple Body uses tai chi, yoga and meditation.
• “Ship” Shape Boot Camp Workout pumps up the fun and motivation, boot-camp style.

Discover Exotic Ports

Between fitness programs, dance classes and motivational discussions, you’ll have plenty of time to explore diverse Caribbean ports.

• In Cozumel, dive along the world-famous Palancar Reef teeming with sea life, shop for Mexican marketplace wares and soak up el sol on tropical beaches.
• Go mountain biking or snorkel with sharks along the lush coast of Belize, a gorgeous, English-speaking nation wedged between Mexico and Guatemala.
• When the ship stops at Costa Maya, see the Chacchoben Mayan Ruins or ride horseback into the Mexican jungle, then shop for souvenirs and kick back with a margarita in this luxurious seaport.
• In the Bahamian capital of Nassau, you can swim with dolphins, sail on a catamaran or hit the links for 18 holes at the spectacular championship Cable Beach Golf Course.

Power Up

Back on board, you’ll enjoy all the amenities Carnival Glory has to offer, including four pools, seven whirlpools and a wet-and-wild 214-foot waterslide. Motivational, nutrition and fitness experts will teach you how to energize your mind, body and spirit, and you can enjoy some programs out on deck in the open air.
