Silversea Cruises is catering to health-conscious travelers with
a new, multi-faceted “Wellness Program.” Incorporating exercise and
nutrition programs, various fitness activities, spa therapies and
healthy dining options, the Wellness Program provides guests with a
rejuvenating experience at sea.
Each day, guests will receive a schedule of Wellness Program
activities and seminars, developed by the fitness experts of
Silversea’s award-winning Mandara Spa. The comprehensive fitness
regimen includes popular workout programs such as aerobics
(including aqua and step), Pilates, circuit training, and yoga. On
Silver Shadow and Silver Whisper, fitness centers will be expanded
to include an additional 300 square feet for new cardiovascular
training equipment.
A typical day on the Wellness Program might include a sunrise
morning walk and yoga class followed by a late-morning seminar on
nutrition, exploring the pros and cons of popular diets. In the
afternoon, guests might choose to attend a seminar on healthy backs
and abs, followed by a circuit-weight workout. Guests can wind down
at the end of the day with exercises to stretch and relax, under
the careful guidance of a professional fitness instructor.
The Wellness Program guide will offer a daily sampling of lunch
and dinner selections to complement the roster of fitness
activities and seminars. Many of the light and low-carb options are
from the line’s “Collection du Monde” signature dishes, created in
collaboration with Relais & Chateaux chef Jacques Thorel, owner
of Michelin two-star L’Auberge Bretonne, a “Relais Gourmand”
restaurant in La Roche-Bernard, Brittany, France. Light menu
selections feature fresh fish, lean meats, seasonal fruits and
vegetables, olive oil and sugar substitutes, and vary between 100
and 300 calories. Sugar-free desserts are less than 200 calories.
Low-carb dining options feature appetizers, soups and salads
containing no more than five grams of carbohydrates and main
courses that vary between ten and fifteen grams. At breakfast,
Silversea guests can enjoy a refreshing carrot and tangerine
cooler, a mango, peach and apricot fizz or a thyme-scented plum
crush just a few of several new “vitamin-booster” juice blends
served at bbreakfast and made from the freshest raw fruits and
vegetables. Also available for breakfast are new low-fat yogurt
smoothies with names like Mango and Banana Tango, Cucumber and Mint
Reviver and Fragrant Fusion (made with fresh mango, papaya and
passion fruit).
All organized group fitness classes and seminars are
complimentary. Personalized, one-on-one training programs and spa
therapies are offered at an additional charge.
