Reshaping the Dubai Luxury Fitness Scene

Going to a regular gym can sometimes feel like a chore. Walking into the same space and using the same machines repeatedly can zap your motivation.

When you start getting bored, you’ll start becoming less consistent. You’ll begin skipping sessions, and even if you do show up, you’ll likely engage only in half-hearted workouts, which don’t deliver the same results as energised, focused training.

If you’re in Dubai, you don’t need to lose interest and feel unmotivated by your workout routine. Reform Athletica offers luxury fitness experiences that challenge and help you achieve your fitness goals without getting bored.

Workout Programs

Reform Athletica offers these signature classes:

1. Reform Method

The Reform Method is Reform Athletica’s signature class. It’s a low-impact, high-intensity class that lets you engage in intense strength exercises and some Pilates-inspired movements.

Participants must perform these exercises on the Lagree Megaformer M3K+, a fitness machine designed specifically for core and muscle endurance and development. This equipment is excellent for lunges, planking, and other standing exercises. Many fitness and wellness centres use this equipment for innovative Pilates classes in Dubai.

During the 50-minute class, you’ll work on improving your physical strength and coordination.

2. MicroForm

In the MicroForm class, participants work out using a Microformer. Each exercise is carefully chosen to strengthen, tighten, and tone the body.

The class also includes mat work, which involves using free weights, kettlebells, and other equipment, and some cardio bursts.

3. RA Strength

The RA Strength class is designed to help participants learn to lift smartly to increase their strength and endurance.

During each session, you can also improve your form and technique through exercises using dumbbells, kettlebells, and other equipment.

The class also includes TRX, a workout program that helps improve strength, flexibility, and core stability.

4. Sculpt and Burn

Sculpt and Burn is a 50-minute high-intensity, low-impact class that incorporates Pilates, yoga, and other exercises.

It also includes barre exercises, which are inspired by elements of dance, yoga, and Pilates, and yoga, which are excellent for full-body strength training.

Participants will perform bodyweight exercises on a mat using ankle weights, stability balls, dumbbells, and other equipment.

The Sculpt and Burn class focuses on improving your movement, stability, and muscular coordination while immersing you in a fun, dynamic workout session.

5. Yoga

Reform Athletica’s yoga classes focus on increasing participants’ flexibility and mobility through a sequence of deep stretches and transitions.

The first part of the class involves exercises that warm up the spine and enable you to connect to your breath. You’ll then engage in a series of dynamic flows that open up and build strength through the body, preparing you for a full range of motion.

The second part focuses on a series of deeper stretches, which you’ll do for an extended period, with the help of props and breathwork.

Refueling the Body

Reform Athletica’s ICD Brookfield Place fitness boutique boasts an onsite juice bar, RAFresh, which offers delicious signature low-cal beverages packed with health benefits.
