JOE Wicks is to host hundreds of families and youngsters in a mass exercise class today.

The Body Coach will begin his PE with Joe live tour at Goodwood, Chichester today following the success of his online workout classes during lockdown.

Joe, 34, said that he was ready to take on a new challenge and help families to “keep moving” during the summer holidays.

 

He said: “Millions of families took part from their living rooms during lockdown and it's going to be amazing to meet some of them in real-life.

“The workouts are going to be really fun, and the locations are all incredible. I can't wait to see you there."

After the 30-minute workout, everyone will have the chance to meet Joe before he departs for his next location.

Further locations include Cheltenham Racecourse, Warwick Castle, Castle Howard, York, Emirates Riverside, Durham and Dundas Castle, Edinburgh.

During the lockdown in 2020, Wicks, 34, started his PE with Joe lessons on YouTube to help children stay active while at home, breaking a Guinness World Record after one of his classes was watched live by 955,000 people on the site.

Through daily workouts he also raised more than £550,000 for the NHS and was subsequently made an MBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours.

Last month, it was announced that a documentary by Joe tackling of mental health had been commissioned by the BBC.

Joe Wicks: Mental Health, My Family And Me will see the fitness guru reflect on the “poignant personal story” of his mother and father.

Documentary maker Louis Theroux is the executive producer for the BBC One programme.
