  • Getting you into shape: The DEFINE Dubai team demonstrate some elements of a mind class.

    A new fitness studio has just opened its doors in The Marina, Dubai and is running some events throughout the summer. The first takes place on Saturday at Lululemon in Marina Mall where you can participate in a Body class with Stefani Bertoncini.

    The importance of a balanced fitness regimen which incorporates all the components of fitness may not be obvious until injuries start to creep in. Unless you have a personal trainer or access to multiple gyms/fitness studios, it’s almost impossible to know what you should be doing and where to go to get it.

    DEFINE Dubai might just be the answer. DEFINE believes that strength + length = balance and their classes are designed around this premise. DEFINE Dubai offers three classes only, but this is all you need to keep body, mind and soul in perfect health.

    The studio, based in Silverene Tower, near Pier 7, Dubai Marina has just opened and is offering the free Define Body class, a perfectly balanced 60 minute session of strength and flexibility exercises to sculpt and condition the entire body, to give you a taste of what they do. It is a combination of Pilates, yoga, barre and core strength, using props such as balls, weights, resistance bands and straps to vary the workouts and increase intensity. These classes are fun and fast paced which ensures that the heart rate remains elevated throughout to help boost metabolism.

    If you can’t make this weekend, don’t worry because you can keep an eye on their Facebook page as other events are planned. They are also offering a free introductory class at the studio, so you can visit their website to view the schedule and book. The other two classes which complement Body are Revolution and Mind: Rev is an indoor cycling class which will improve your cardiovascular fitness, but the use of drills and weights makes it a full body workout on the bike.

    Mind is a restorative combination of yoga stretching, ball rolling to release soft tissue tension, inversions in the hammock to decompress the spine and relaxation to relieve stress. The combination of all three classes has an extremely powerful effect on wellbeing.
