Phillip Mills, the Founder and Executive Director of Les Mills International, was named the recipient of the 2021 Lifetime Achievement Award at the recent Fitness & Wellness Awards of Excellence, which were held as part of the World Summit by FIT Summit.

These Awards celebrate the leading fitness and wellness brands and executives, and recognise the leading companies and executives from across health, fitness, wellness and hospitality throughout the Asia Pacific region.

The Lifetime Achievement Award recognised Mills as being an executive who has made a defining difference to APAC’s fitness and wellness industry; a pioneer for meaningful change; a demonstrator of lifelong industry leadership; and with an extensive track record of shareholder ROI, and long-term commitment to working with communities and industry stakeholders for continued industry growth.

“I honestly can’t think of a more worthy recipient for a Lifetime Achievement Award. Phillip has worked so hard for so long. It makes sense that he be acknowledged for the life-changing contribution that he has made on a global scale to the fitness industry. What he has achieved really is unrivalled.”
