Equinox, operator of 80 high-end fitness and wellness gyms in the U.S. and abroad, will host its #POWEREDBYPRIDE 2016 “Partners in Pride” Series, where five global cities will each hold a celebration combining two diverse fitness classes. The Series reaffirms Equinox’s ongoing commitment to the LGBTQA community.

The Partners in Pride Series events will fuse two unlikely classes— yoga/ropes, Pilates/HIIT or dance/tabata—to demonstrate how opposing movements, sounds and personalities come together in perfect harmony.  Each event will be set to the tune of live, juxtaposing music acts.

“Equinox has always empowered people to be proud and unapologetic about who they are,” said Equinox Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Carlos Becil. “Now, more than ever, we’re proud to be an advocate for and voice within the LGBTQA community as we move forward together. In continuation of our ongoing Powered by Pride efforts, we’re working with The Center and Albert Kennedy Trust this year, two organizations that meaningfully support this community every day.”

Partners in Pride events will be held in New York, Los Angeles, London, Chicago, Toronto in the lead-up to each city’s respective Pride celebration and parade, and are open to members and non-members alike. Please visit https://eqxpoweredbypride.splashthat.com/ to register.
