Apple announced Thursday that its Artist Fitness series on Apple Fitness+ will feature Madonna. The company will also celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride Month in June with a new set of workouts and meditations.
On June 5, workouts featuring Madonna’s music will be available. Madonna has had a style impact on pop culture as well as music, so the coaches at each workout take the Madonna theme one step further by dressing in one of Madonna’s looks. For example, trainer Tyrell Désean “wears a white lace wedding dress” inspired by Madonna’s hit song “Like a Virgin.” Coach Anja Garcia wears a red satin dress similar to Madonna’s in the “Material Girl” music video.
On May 29, Apple will release seven new workouts and meditations “that honor the LGBTQ+ community.” Workouts will have music by LGBTQ+ and Pride lighting that depicts the rainbow flag. A new meditation will reflect “on iconic leaders who have united communities in support of equal rights.”
Apple is offering three months of free access to Apple Fitness+ if you buy a new iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad or Apple TV, you can sign up for an Apple Fitness trial here. A subscription to Apple Fitness+ costs $9.99/£9.99 per month or $79.99/£79.99 per year. You can also get Apple Fitness+ as part of the Apple One bundle.
Earlier this week, Apple began selling the Apple Watch Pride Edition sport band to commemorate the LGBTQ+ community’s movement for equality. Apple has also released an Apple Watch face and iOS wallpaper that matches the band.
