Luxury Mexican spa resort, NIZUC Resort & Spa, has partnered with performance coach, Artur Zolkiewicz, and international breathwork and mindfulness coach, Artur Paulins, to bring their wellness programme to those in isolation with a virtual wellness residency of pre-recorded practices and live classes.  

Head over to NIZUC's Instagram account @nizucresort or their blog, find a quiet space and work out alongside Artur Zolkiewicz as he takes viewers through a sequence of stretching & strengthening exercises inspired by his residency at NIZUC last year.  With postures like the bird dog, crab, beast crawl & side clam, you would be mistaken for thinking you were already back on the beach.  NIZUC guests will have met renowned performance coach, Artur Zolkiewicz, during his last residency at NIZUC Resort & Spa in September 2019.  Artur will be returning to Mexico later this year, but until guests can return to this little corner of paradise, he has filmed an introductory warm-up and three exercise circuits for NIZUC guests to try at home. 

These NIZUC at Home strengthening and stretching practices from Artur will be complemented by three mindful breathing practices filmed exclusively for NIZUC by international breathwork and mindfulness coach, Artur Paulins.  Each breathwork sequence, entitled 'Breath of Fire', 'Coherence Breath' and 'Square Breathing', is intended to bring calm, stillness, inner strength and contentment.  

These will be followed by two more filmed exercise practices from Artur posted over the coming weeks and will culminate in a live class on NIZUC's Instagram page at 6pm BST on 11 May.  Artur Paulins will then lead a virtual mindful breathing class on NIZUC's Instagram page at 6pm BST on 25 May.  
The filmed exercise circuits and breathing sequences are designed to be viewed independently or can be put together to create a longer practice at home.  The live classes will be available to replay on Instagram for 24 hours after each class ends.

About NIZUC Resort & Spa

Recently voted 'Most Instagrammable Hotel in the World' by readers of Luxury Travel Advisor magazine, NIZUC Resort & Spa is located on the secluded Punta NIZUC in an area once used by Mayan astronomers and as a presidential retreat for world leaders. NIZUC Resort & Spa sits within a 29-acre private beachfront estate surrounded by a paradise of protected mangroves and lush local foliage facing the white sands of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef – the second largest coral reef in the world – and yet within easy reach of Cancun international airport. A collaboration between artists and architects who have created a resort that fuses modern sensibility with Mayan ethos, NIZUC was opened in March 2013 and offers 274 suites and villas, as well as multiple pools, including family friendly and adults only options, six world-class restaurants including Mexican, Peruvian, Italian, Asian and a beachside Grill, and a 30,000 square foot ESPA spa complete with male and female hydrotherapy areas and 10 indoor/outdoor treatment rooms.  Guests wanting to get more active can collect a paddleboard or kayak from one of NIZUC's two beaches or explore the region's natural wonders, archaeological sites and amazing attractions, including the world's first Underwater Art Museum.  www.nizuc.com
