Les Mills turned 91 which is pretty good innings eh. Seemed like a good bloke. RIP.

Agreed! My mate's dad used to work with him back in the day. Absolute legend. Sad day.

Wait he died?? I just did one of his workouts yesterday 💀

Paying respects with those Les Mills membership fees I bet. RIP anyway I guess.

Reese Morgan2026-07-03T00:37:06.000Z

Mate have some respect. The man built an empire and inspired thousands. Not everything is about money.

Grace Patel2026-07-03T01:32:06.000Z

nah fair enough. I can still roast the gym tho. Good on him though.

Well said Finn. He was a real part of the community. I'll always remember his legacy.

RIP Les. Only went to one class but it nearly killed me 😂 My gran used to love his old gym gear.

Lol my dad tried to get me into Les Mills. I avoided it but can't deny the guy was a legend. Condolences.

vibe as when my parents force me to go 🤣 But respect where it's due.

Actually really sad. My nan knew his wife. Said he was the kindest bloke. Rest easy Les.

Hana Stewart2026-07-03T01:51:06.000Z
