Les Mills in Auckland actually has 3 entities: Les Mills International (LMI)
Les Mills New Zealand (LMNZ)
Les Mills – World of Fitness (LM-WOF)
Obviously they’re all connected, but let me explain the purpose of each one. Les Mills International is the company which creates, choreographs and films all the program releases that we get every 3 months. Those who work for LMI mainly consist of Program Directors, International Master Trainers, Marketing and those who assist with production etc. Les Mills New Zealand is essentially the New Zealand agent. An agent exists in each country and NZ is no exception. LMNZ focuses on training instructors, conducting workshops and sale of music and DVD’s etc, and exists in a separate location across the road from LMI. Les Mills – World of Fitness is the actual gym which exists a bit further down the road from LMNZ and LMI. A huge massive complex with 1 way glass windows, 2 group fitness studios and 55 steps to Studio 1, the massive group fitness room where all the filmings are held. 55 steps may seem like no biggy, but I hope you’re more organised than me since you don’t want to be running late, then to get to the top of the stairs and realise you have another 10 mins so decide to go back to the café and get a drink, then return to the top of the stairs and realise you need to use the toilet, go back down the stairs, then back up………you get the drift? Luckily most people in society are much more organised than me so you shouldn’t have a problem. Participating in the filming classes is free of charge. Les Mills widely encourage instructors and members from all over the world to come along and enjoy the experience of the filmings. Sometimes the filmings are held all on one day. Sometimes they’re spread out over a week. But they’re ALWAYS held every 3 months and generally occur the beginning of February, May, August and November each year. I will try to publish the provisional dates and times as they become available, however if you wish to attend you will need to contact

for the updated filming schedule. The good news is that

may also give you access to the gym for the rest of the time you’re visiting Auckland if you are a qualified Les Mills instructor. Remember only the filmings are free, so if you plan to visit the gym at other times you’ll need to take this into consideration.
