Fantastic experience: Amazing classes Try classes with Aman!

Fantastic experience: Been coming to Pad for almost a year, amazing experience not once did I not enjoy the classes. Varied classes to cater for all different levels. Aman, Shreya and Zeinab are all very very knowledgeable. They know when to push you to try a little bit more and when to take it easy in you. I started as a beginner and now I am doing intermediate classes. They also change the schedules regularly to accommodate everyone and to have various classes. Very clean studio and the staff overall are amazing. Love this place ❤️

Fantastic experience: The Best Pilates Classes with the most amazing instructors!!

Fantastic experience: Loved the energy and vibe of the place

Fantastic experience: I started reformer pilates few months back. All the teachers are amazing. Pilates teacher Aman James is really exceptional . He's highly professional and very articulate in his teachings. I really look forward to his class. Keep up the great work everyone.

Fantastic experience: I was two months away from my wedding when I started stressing about not being able to find a good choreography team that would be able to plan and execute the dances for the Sangeet event. I had a particular vision for the Sangeet event that I wanted to execute, but I wasn’t getting the confidence or certainty until I met with Abbas from The Pad. When we met with Abbas, he came prepared with a presentation of what he had done in the past, but what I liked more was his flexibility and creativity in executing a show. He took the time to understand what I was looking to do and took it to a whole new level. Abbas and Zainab were fantastic in taking my song selections and bringing them to life! They were sensitive and patient with all my friends and family members in helping them practice the steps and also giving them the confidence to bring the best dancer out in each individual. It’s been two months since my wedding, and I still have family and friends complimenting me that they have never felt so confident and ready to go on stage to perform, and many of my family and friends are seasoned dancers and performers. The cherry on the cake was the special moments and messages they created through the dances. They created a special moment for my parents’ dance that touched everyone’s hearts. Thank you to Abbas, Zainab, and The Pad team for helping bring my vision to life!

Fantastic experience: We were looking for a memorable, mesmerising and mastibhari evening for our only daughter’s Sangeet. Someone who would partner with us in leading and supporting us as we had so many other aspects of wedding to focus on as well. Abbas & his team did a fabulous collaboration to create, curate and break the steps of songs to make them so easy for even non dancers and pushed the dancers to do even better. We would genuinely recommend The PAD for choreography. Thank you once again Abbas, Zainab and the full The PAD team

Fantastic experience: We recently used ABBAs and his team to choreograph our daughter’s wedding. Right from the first meeting , we felt the commitment , passion , expertise. Abbas did above and beyond what anyone would do for us and continues to to do till this day. The way he teaches the steps along with Zainab makes even people who have three left feet look like a gazelle. He taught us something like 21 dances in all by the end of it and you need to simply go to his instagram page and see the proof there yourself. I cannot thank you enough for the outstanding, exemplary, dedicated , commitment you have. ♥️

Fantastic experience: They have 3 beautiful approchable front desk and 3 amazing instructors

Fantastic experience: Best Pilates in town, loving all the classes. Amazing teachers especially Shreya

Fantastic experience: Amazing studio

Fantastic experience: I have been really enjoying the Pilates reformer classes! The instructors are exceptional, providing personalized attention and support, especially if you have any injuries or specific needs. They guide you through dynamic exercises and variations, ensuring a rewarding experience every session.

Fantastic experience: The Pad Dance team helped me prepare a dance for my niece's wedding in 2 sessions. It was a solo performance, and they helped me nail down all the elements of the dance so well and feel comfortable about performing it alone. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for wedding choreography or just learn dance. Their vibe is amazing, and they work with your strengths! Thank you Pad Team!

Fantastic experience: I have been doing reformer Pilates classes at the pad since the past three years and I must say what a significant change it has made in terms of my strength n core . Post some back inflammation I was doubting whether this is the rite move , however after 3 years with the pad I can comfortably recommend anyone looking for back n core strengthens or toning your love handles then look no further than the pad . The instructors are helpful and well qualified to take through your journey of fitness n health

Fantastic experience: A wonderful place with thorough professionals lead by Abbas Kanchwala. I being almost 50y loved the modules and found them much do able. I would urge all to visit PAD and I guarantee, u r going to love it

Fantastic experience: Joining the Pilates studio has been a transformative experience for both my mind and body. The instructors' expertise and personalized approach have made each session enjoyable and effective, making it an essential part of my wellness journey which is one of my goal for this year. It's a lifestyle change that has given me more energy and confidence than merely work out. I wouldn't swap the time for anything.

Fantastic experience: I am very grateful to my friend who has recommended this studio. Shreya is truly exceptional, guiding sessions with expertise and enthusiasm, making every class a joy. The Pad’s Team friendliness and warmth add an extra later of comfort, fostering a sense of belonging. Personally, this studio has transformed my perspective on exercise, making it an essential and enjoyable part of my routine.

Fantastic experience: Im absolutely happy with the bollyfit class, I’m enjoying and getting results while sweating and that’s what I need.

Fantastic experience: I had sciatica pain which would not let me sleep well. This dull heavy constant pain would only get better with painkillers and then promptly come back again. Seeing my discomfort my son suggested I go to Pad. Two sessions with Shaazia and I was feeling so much better. Another session and much stretching later, the pain had almost disappeared. Thank you Shaazia for seeing me through this. You really made a difference.

Fantastic experience: A wonderful experience from the moment you walk in the door. Most professional team, always positive vibes, being sure to understand everyone's ability and helping at every level. Simply the best!

Fantastic experience: The staff and coach were so friendly, patient and considerate, the workout instructions were very easy and the facility was clean and neat.

Fantastic experience: I started Pilates with Hanisha in the Greens studio, with a trial session but my experience with her was so great that I have continued with it since then. She is a great instructor and she understands each individuals strengths and weaknesses during the class and is able to provide with clear support. Her class is always fun and I would highly recommend Hanisha as a Pilates instructor.

Fantastic experience: I attended the prenatal Pilates sessions conducted by Hanisha. She is extremely good and easy to approach, she knows the techniques and guides you properly. The sessions were very beneficial and fun.

Fantastic experience: So glad to I found this place! It's such a friendly and welcoming pilates studio. I've only started with their reformer pilates classes and can confidently say it's going to be my place to go in Dubai.

Fantastic experience: Visited the PAD studio finally. Had reformer level 1 Pilates directly by the excellent trainer and instructor Shaazia. Oh god, I loved how amazing it was. It felt very easy but had quiet deep impacts. Seemed so gentle yet so challenging. And though I am regular with yoga, in this session I just didn’t realize where time flew. Totally recommend anybody and everybody looking to stretch and strengthen their muscles to head over to this beautiful place in Onyx Tower in Dubai. My first experience of Pilates has been amazingly fabulous because of the place and the trainer.

Fantastic experience: I hired Abbas as my wedding Choreographer for my wedding and i think it was the best decision i ever made. The dance routine was beautifully choreographed and perfectly suited to our song choice. Also some of the song suggestions and choice came from him. He planned the skit perfectly coordinating with my friends and family. I highly recommend Abbas for wedding choreography , for any who wants there wedding to be unforgettable. I will always recommend Abbas Ali Kanchwala and the PAD Fitness to friends and family.

Fantastic experience: 'You are as young as your spine is flexible' Visit this studio and find out how you can stay young forever, experience the best Pilates and Dance

Fantastic experience: Abbas the Rockstar ! He not only organized and managed our group of friends in Dubai who at any given time were not available - but he was very patient with them. He got my three men to dance - not easy at all!! - and perform on our son’s wedding in Delhi. The most amazing part was that he got the groom and his friends to practice and perform a complex number in 24 hours - just amazing!! He is super patient , encouraging with a genuine love for his passion. Our performances were par excellence and surprised our respective families. It was such great fun practicing at the Pad and at each other homes.

Fantastic experience: Had lovely experience with Pad Pilates today! Instructor Aman was friendly, professional and encouraging to push my limits. Staff is pleasant and easy going, interior of the studio is cozy and giving tropical vibes, definitely inviting to come for more! :)

Fantastic experience: I have joined The Pad in Feb this year, with my hectic work schedules and traveling I tried to get there as much as I can. Hanisha is really good instructor. I have never tried the reformer before, she makes sure we understood her instructions before letting us start. She understands each individual’s needs and abilities to do certain moves. She adjust it accordingly. Im glad I found The Pad, allows me to de stress a bit when my day gets too wild !

Fantastic experience: This studio is one of a kind. I attended pilates with both mat and reformer sessions. The coaches are experts, soft spoken and very helpful. Recently also attended a bhangra workshop which was lot of fun. Highly recommend this fitness studio to help achieve fitness goals while having fun !

Fantastic experience: My experience with The Pad was lovely. Shaazia lead me gently through our classes and made me realise once again how amazing our body is if we pay attention. Shaazia is an amazing observer and trainer, I have learnt something new about my body during every session.

Fantastic experience: My husband is one of those people who had the myth that Pilates is not for men, mainly because he’s loves his traditional body building. I had to some how forced him to come and it changed his life. He was shock and amazed by his experienced at the Pad. He felt muscles he didn’t know existed! We are so glad we got a chance to attend a session with Shaazia, and we are looking forward to our next pilates class & looking forward to Bhangra workshop. Would highly recommend everyone to visit The Pad Fitness for game changing Pilates session

Fantastic experience: Had a reformer class with Shreya today, she's amazing! And I loved how she was teaching me all the moves with so much patience and care. Will definitely be coming to her classes again

Fantastic experience: I have had backpain for the past 10 years+ and I have tried everything to ensure that I can get back to playing sports like cricket and badminton. Nothing worked better than Pilates. Shaazia and her team at The Pad took me on as a client to work on simple stretches and strengthening. After almost 5 months, my back supports me with all the movement required for me to play the sport just as how The Pad has supported me to getting back to playing. Thank You Shaazia and The Pad for all the help.

Fantastic experience: I never danced in my life, but Abbas made it so easy and fun for me in only few sessions that i was able to perform with my team in front of everyone. boast my confidence and it was a good workout as well. Anyone new to dance, should come to them they make it so easy and fun

Fantastic experience: Booked the reformer beginners class with Hanisha & left feeling super positive. Hanisha takes huge pride in the class whilst paying attention to the students and correcting them as and when. The combination of excercises she introduced were very effective.

Fantastic experience: Every lesson I take at the pad is fun for me, but my favorite classes are those taught by Hanicha since she is so talented and knowledgeable. She is quite competent and has excellent expertise.

Fantastic experience: Undoubtedly the best fitness place... Encourage everyone to at least visit once, meet with the team and especially with Abbas.. he did amazing work with us non-dancers and brought out our best... Not to mention the neatness of the place and friendliness of the team .... great place to unwind guys.... All the best to Abbas and Shaazia... keep up the good work guys

Fantastic experience: Wonderful experience. Abbas and team are just fabulous in their work. He literally made a non dancer dance, in just 4 session.

Fantastic experience: Sajid here from LifeGuard Data Recovery Dubai , I am a BNI Gazelles member we had social event in the chapter we dance competition Mr.Abbas did an amazing job I never dance in my life but with Abbas 4 sessions I was dancing and enjoying it he teach us amazing way step by step how to and when is entry and moves I wanted to thank Yasmin Karachiwala's special thanks to Abbas continue amazing work.....

Fantastic experience: Excellent dance coaching center. Very simple but impressive steps. I recommend this for learning all types of fun dances.

Fantastic experience: I just love everything about this place! The team, instructors, classes and clients! I would highly recommend it❤️

Fantastic experience: Instructor Aman is amazing...Best reformer class I've done...

Fantastic experience: Super Dance experience with PAD team …

Fantastic experience: Recently joined the PAD to add something new to my workout routine and I’m pleasantly surprised. Have done classes with Shaaziya, Hanisha, Aman and Rupesh and all of them were something different. The reformer is a great machine to help stretch out muscles I’ve never even felt before. Very warm cozy vibe in their place and lots of natural light too.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, talented instructors, community feel, modern equipment. Love the Allegro 2 reformers, the Exo Chairs, the Bodhi suspension. The classes are as challenging as you want them to be and the instructors are always conscious of any historical injuries or current aches and pains. One area for improvement, although I didn't deduct a star because it is more of a luxury than a necessity, it would be that I wish there was one or two showers we could use after a class.

Fantastic experience: I have been to The Pad and the experience was simply amazing. At first I thought pilates to be just another way of exercise and did a trial session by Shazia and thought it to be super easy, only later to find that the next day each core body muscle was paining which means that the stretching was indeed effective. The overall place and staff are very professional and friendly. I strongly recommend trying out The Pad from Yasmin Karachiwala which is the best Pilates studio in Dubai. I wish them good luck and great success.

Fantastic experience: I suffered a back injury 6 months ago and was encouraged to do Pilates to strengthen my core and I'm so glad I found The Pad. From my very first trial session, the team has always been welcoming and deeply involved in my recovery. Shazia (the studio director) is a magician and my private sessions with her are the reason my back feels as good as new most days now. You don't just go through various exercises at The Pad, but really learn why your body moves the way it does and how even the slightest corrections in your posture can aid in pain relief. I couldn't recommend Shazia and her team more highly.

Fantastic experience: My reason for writing this post is to tell the world that THERE IS HOPE - no matter what your doctors and report say, if you believe that your body can heal then it most definitely will. When I was introduced to Pilates at THE PAD, I had been to enough doctors and physios, and I was told that I just must manage the mid back & neck pain with meds and rest. I was not in a good place to say the least, as pain killers I was not willing to take and rest I could get enough as I was a working mom of two. I was mentally and physically exhausted, at that time Shaazia was one who pushed me to try Pilates - that thru movement I could heal my body. At first, I was very skeptical of this approach, and questioned it, but Shaaazia has always taken the time to explain and educate me and put my doubts to rest. Shaazia is extremely flexible in her approach; she asks for continuous feedback during the session and alters the exercise as needed to make me comfortable. This ensured I could gradually increase my strength . She is a nurturing empath who can hold space for people and their pain, which itself helps in the healing process, so thank you Shaazia for helping me live a pain free life. It’s been a long journey, but I am grateful I had your help. The crew at the Pad is also super amazing and the place itself is beautifully done with loads of plants & natural light. The PAD is the HOPE - love Arine

Fantastic experience: Much recommended to fitness enthusiasts. PAD has Qualified staff & training relatively smaller groups to ensure attention to detail. Working out in a group of not more than 6 people really makes the difference Go to place for Pilates , Dance & cardio workout

Fantastic experience: The PAD experience is flawless. They not only help with regular body fitness and stability but specialize with client who have specific needs. After visiting The PAD I suggested them to my parents. My mother who has a continuous knee pain and my father who is still recovering from a bypass surgery, have been taken care of with perfection. Exercises that have been catered to their individual requirements and limitations were given to them which has resulted in them feeling much more fitter and healthier.

Fantastic experience: The instructors are amazing and every session feels like a private session. The instructors are adept at human anatomy and sensitive to injury and/or needs. My spine flexibility largely improved after just 10 sessions or so.

Fantastic experience: For as long as I can remember, I have been passionate about hiking in the mountains. But due to my persistent knee pain, I haven't been able to pursue this passion for many years. As my knee pain arose from weakened muscles supporting the knee, there was no straightforward or overnight remedy. The only solution that my doctor prescribed was strengthening my muscles cautiously with exercises. So I decided to try pilates. After merely 10 sessions at the PAD, I have gained enough strength in my knees that I am now able to hike every weekend without any pain. What seemed impossible a couple of months ago, is now a reality - thanks to the considerate team at PAD who gave personal attention to my knee situation and planned my workout accordingly. As a happy and now fit client, I strongly recommend the PAD to anyone who wishes to gain muscle strength through Pilates.

Fantastic experience: One of the best places in Dubai for Pilates. Classes with Shaazia have always been fun, and exciting. Packages are priced well and the instructors are very helpful. Great experience, overall!

Fantastic experience: The PAD has all the amenities from changing rooms, to sitting space, Pilates equipment and a beautiful dance studio! Everyone at the studio is extremely helpful and welcoming. Definitely recommend it for dance and fitness enthusiasts.

Fantastic experience: If you think pilates is not for men, just have a conversation with Shaazia and the team at PAD and they'll show you how wrong you are. I had a great experience at PAD, the trainers know exactly what they are doing and what's needed for your body, the stretches are amazing and definitely help in curing any of your body pains.

Fantastic experience: Shaazia is an amazing instructor, i had an amazing time learning Pilates from her. I thoroughly enjoyed my time training and have.recovered from my back injury. Thanks to Shaazia for helping me correct my postures.

Fantastic experience: So I had this crazy back issue which made me so depressed coz I couldn’t do the basic day to day stuff without feeling it in my back and then I met Shazia @THE PAD who helped me see how with stretching n strengthening one can go back to living life the way it is meant to be lived. Thank you THE PAD for literally HAVING MY BACK ♥️

Fantastic experience: I like that our instructor, Hanisha, explains the pose knowledgeably. Makes it easier to follow. And she takes time to look at the form and correct her student's form.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed my first class here with James . If you are doing something wrong he will correct you. The place is super clean and nice. Would be nice to have free parking tho.

Fantastic experience: I've attended a few sessions at the PAD and they are a great studio. Shaazia and her team are superbbbb

Fantastic experience: Amazing place !! Everyone at the studio is extremely helpful and welcoming. Highly recommend it for dance and fitness lovers.

Fantastic experience: Yasmeen Karachi Wala Is Really Gorgeous Talented And Amazing Fitness Trainer .. Hats Off To Her Hard Work

Fantastic experience: Nice studio! I like to train with Hanisha and Rupesh! And Zumba with Stephania also really good!!!

Fantastic experience: I barely to write the comments，but Yasmin is so good！professional coach and staff with affordable prices！well organized team！

Fantastic experience: The one place to get rid of all your back issues. Awesome team, great studio. Flexible classes

Fantastic experience: Ma'am shazha is my favorite ❤️❤️nice and beautiful director,,

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend if you have Back Pain, Knee Pain or any kind of Muscles Pain.

Fantastic experience: Loved the reformer class!

Fantastic experience: My Happy Place !

Fantastic experience: Awesome tasty

Fantastic experience: Had an amazing experience at The Pad. I am someone who gets bored of a workout very easily but The sessions were fun , different every time, and really helped me develop core strength and gave me an all round workout. The team is also super fun and high energy and make you feel welcome and part of the group. For someone who doesn’t know what form of exercise works for you, I strongly recommend you give this a shot. Thank you to Shaazia, Abbas and the whole team at The Pad for such an incredible experience.

Fantastic experience: This is where i got introduced to Pilates. I have been coming to The PAD since it opened in Aug 2018. I love this place and its been my second home since then! The whole team is super friendly and welcoming. The trainers are knowledgeable and keep everyone motivated to ensure we reach our fitness goals. The studio has a cute ambience and is very neat with all the equipment well maintained. I enjoy coming here and thoroughly enjoy my work outs here!

Fantastic experience: This studio is my happy place! Its always clean and fresh, has a great atmosphere, a lot of natural light (which is so important) and needless to say the best instructors. After trying few fitness studios in Dubai I’m never moving from The Pad ❤️

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Yasmine Karachiwala’s The Pad for almost a year now. I would say i have benefited enormously from my private sessions with Shaazia. She is just awesome!!! Technically she is outstanding and her knowledge of the human body and anatomy is on point. Her classes are refreshingly varied, she demonstrates every move with precision and every class is a complete workout at every level. I have also attended a few dance classes at the Pad, would highly recommend Abbas for bollywood dancing & Power Bhangra, if you want to sweat and burn those calories. The Pad’s staff are so warm,friendly and accommodating. Love the fact, they always send reminders before every class. This is a place one must try, you can’t help but fall in love with them....

Fantastic experience: I am a newbie to Pilates, I had heard alot about how Pilates can help you lengthen & strengthen muscle tone..with my at-the-desk lifestyle I always felt I was shrinking.. I'm just amazed how their fitness programs helped me correct my posture and develop my core strength. All the trainers, are hands on making sure that all movements are controlled and how each exercise is done in only right way, correcting posture till its perfect. The studio has great energy, vibe and is very neat with all the equipment well maintained. Especially during the current times, when the strictest of sanitization and social distancing is maintained. It smells fresh, has a great atmosphere, a lot of natural light (which is so important). It’s a great and fun place to workout with the amazing instructors who will not just help you remain motivated but also make sure you do get a workout. The whole team is super friendly and welcoming. The PAD - Pilates & dance studio is the BEST in town, if you haven’t tried, this-very-well situated, easy-to-reach, parking taken care of (extremely important factor), you’ve got to it give it a shot! I am so glad that I am now part of The PAD Tribe

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout. I have been going to The Pad since last year and I'm just amazed how their fitness programs helped me a lot in reaching my goal. I am a very lazy person but with the sessions they have , i started to love working out. Its more of having fun for me . So if you are looking for funpacked workout classes or sessions, The Pad is the right place for you. I love the staff , the members and everything about this fitness center ❤

Fantastic experience: One of the best pilates studios i have been to in dubai. The instructors are top notch at the pad, and the level of detail in my equipment classes is amazing. I really enjoy working my core and fixing my posture at the studio.

Fantastic experience: Had an incredible experience at the pad. This being my first experience at Pilates, Shaazia was hands on making sure that all movements are controlled. The continuous guidance helps newbies like me. Iv done my fair share of physical training at CrossFit boxes and gyms, but the Pilates session really helps these moves and form since it’s controlled and supported using “the reformer”. Feel lighter and refreshed after the session even though it breaks you into a decent sweat and tugs at ancillary muscles. The vibe is incredible, her energy infectious and the over all community amazing. Would highly recommend the group classes to anyone dealing with injuries, looking for a good workout without the high intensity and a perfect complimenting exercise routine apart from your typical gyms and boxes. Thank you Shazia , Abbas and team.

Fantastic experience: I've only ever done pilates at The Pad. I am really glad I started out here, they put at ease as a beginner and upped the intensity as I progressed. The crew at The Pad as always super helpful and the instructors know their stuff. I always enjoy a session here. :) Keep up the awesome work guys.

Fantastic experience: On insistence of a dear friend joined the PAD. What started as a fun time to spend with friends turned out to be life changing. Been in chronic neck and shoulder pain for over 10 years and spending lots of money doctors and tests which turned into only short term relief and no long term solution or result. Meeting Shazia has been nothing short of a blessing she’s managed to get to the depth of the issue. In the short time she’s not only made me pain free for long length of times but also made me learn my.l body and to self release moments of pain. Shazia works selflessly on me with her Pilates expertise and shown me what all my body is capable. The PAD is such a friendly bunch of youngsters with depth of knowledge and experience. It never feels like a workout, until the next day ofcourse. And to top it all the dance studio is an absolute must to try. Then energy of Abbas is infectious he makes sure you yearn to come back for more. I can’t say the PAD is a workout studio it’s wonderful place to hangout where all are your friends and the plus point is me getting stronger with every visit. One has to try just one session to experience the power of the PAD work miracles on your body and soul.

Fantastic experience: My favorite studio in dubai. perfect location, nice ambiance !! Been coming for a months since my Dr. advice me to do pilates I couldn’t find as good as THE PAD PILATES YASMIN KARACHIWALA’s .Have a lot of classes available (Mat ,Bosu,equipments,dance,bhangra etc). Every class feels like a private session. The amount of care and attention to detail from instructors is plenty and it's very conveniently … I highly highly highly recommend it for all fitness levels."love to Rupesh & Hanisha nd all in “THE PAD pilates”.

Fantastic experience: The PAD is probably the best thing happened to me in 2020. Shazia and Rupesh are very knowledgeable trainers, they make sure each exercise is done in only right way, correcting posture till its perfect. I have joined with my daughter and we look forward everyday for our variety of classes which never let us bored of our workouts. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: First time visit to The PAD today. I suffer from chronic back pain and I don't think words can describe the relief I felt in my first Pilates session. It has been a few hours since I finished the session and this is the longest I have gone without back pain. This is priceless.

Fantastic experience: Came here as a first timer in pilates reformer classes and really enjoyed them. Attended the classes for two months so far, very good instructors, my favourite is Gulsun and really friendly staff. The place is very nice and clean. It was a very good experience

Fantastic experience: This is my happy place. It is always said ‘ HEALTHY BODY IS YOUR ULTIMATE SOUL PARTNER’ - that’s what TEAM PAD works for. I joined PAD few months back with acute problem of sciatic pain. With proper exercise technique and guidance from their well trained staff , I am pain free.Not even that they also helped me out in correcting my posture, exercises break which is very much required after working long hours on laptops. Thank you PAD for making me healthy and strong Love you guys

Fantastic experience: My husband, Sunil, and I have been practising pilates for over a month there and have seen a tangible difference – the instructor, Rupesh, has been excellent with providing guidance with detailed step-by-step instructions which make the pilates sessions a lot more enjoyable. We found ourselves greatly building on our core strength and Sunil had a tremendous amount of improvement on his back pain. We are sure to continue the exercise routine at the Pad Fitness for more time. Thank you so much for your exemplary services, Highly recommended for your fitness needs!

Fantastic experience: The PAD is a great studio. It is a fun and inviting place with fabulous instructors. The PAD was the first place I had ever tried Pilates at and I'm so glade that I did. I would 100% recommend to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Good Team Work for our events! They Work with passion and detailing... Loved my experience with Abbas and his team for our clients corporate event we did at Atlantis. Great Timing & Great Outcome! Will surely work again with PAD!

Fantastic experience: The Pad is my happy fitness space. I started pilates in NOV 2018 and have never looked back ever since. My posture and my fitness has gone up to the next level thanks to the PAD. The icing on the cake is Bollywood and bhangra power cardio classes which gets me my dose of cardio. These are lot of fun. The combination of pilates and dance together has helped me shed 8 kgs in 4 months in an absolute fun way. This is a gem of a place in the greens and I would recommend anyone and every one to try it out. #realmendopilates. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Dubai is filled with amazing studios/ gyms/ personal trainers etc and it is everyone’s personal choice to pick any place to work out based on their convenience, trainer preferences and workout plans. These were my personal targets: Improve my body strength and not just lose weight, Get back to healthier lifestyle and focus on core strength while training the body as an integrated whole. I stumbled upon this studio - THEpAd (Yasmin Karachiwala’s Pilates and Dance Studio) located in Greens by chance and went in for 1 trial class. Because I had no idea what and how pilates works!!! I was just #MEH but then what brought me back and why am I reviewing it? Studio: 10/10 – The interior is pretty slick and has positive vibes to it altogether. The way they played with the colors are so inviting and fresh. Customer Relation: 10/10 – If you have not yet met the receptionist, you are missing out on some warm welcome and the upbeat energy that gives you the jive to smile and laugh whenever you are there Trainer: 10/10 - The simple gestures, engagement with all the clients in the 1st class and the way she explained each step as the class went on was pretty impressive. Correct posture is what they preach and practice! Now after gazillion amount of classes, with combination of mat pilates, equipment pilates, private pilates, kick boxing, dance! (yeah even danced when I can hardly remember steps) ;D. I can only say few things, I am grateful : to have met amazing trainers in this studio who not only assisted me with maintaining my workout activities but most importantly helped me with managing my degenerative disc issues and I can say my chiropractor was impressed with the much better flexibility I had in my movement. I am happy : with the cozy warm studio that invites you in with the biggest bright welcome EVERYTIME. I am impressed : with the value I am getting back on the cost I pay for these classes. If you know what total cost of ownership means, then I will say you will get the most here. So why not experience it yourself to see the difference and to enjoy a much healthier lifestyle.

Fantastic experience: My daughter who is 11 years old, has joined Shazias summer camp and is having such a blast doing her kids pilates. She was always a book worm and it's good to see how she looks forward to the class and even practices it on the day the classes are not there. Shazia is exceptional with the kids..I would highly recommend her. I have also enrolled for the adult batch to get introduced pilates.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had an amazing experience at the pad. One of the best place in Dubai for Pilate and Bollywood dance classes. Packages are priced well and the instructors are very helpful.

Fantastic experience: Happiness is when you go to a place, where you enjoy what you are doing. This can only be possible if the people around you are helpful & smiling... This is one of the reasons why enjoying going The Pad.. It’s a fun place, where you don’t feel that the working out is boring..

Fantastic experience: An exciting place to experience total body fitness .

Fantastic experience: I joined them in december & been so happy with my transformation after training on their equipments. Their trainers are so good with what they do and always make sure ur comfortable working out even in group classes specially if you have an injury. I also attend their Bollywood Dance classes and they are so much fun & help me burn calories so its a win win. I would highly recommend joining them because they know their pilates & the staff is so accommodating.

Fantastic experience: We at Pluto Travels took Online Pilates Classes with Shaazia. It was a great team building. Shaazia is simply amazing with her high quality of service. She has a deep knowledge on physiology and Pilates. Our team has taken her class and most of us are beginners but we managed to complete the session without any hassles. We will highly recommend The Pad to our clients as she uplift not only our physical well being of but also our confidence.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to the PAD since February 2020 and I can safely say, it is one of my best finds in this year! All their classes and all the trainers are brilliant...and the fact that they continued with the virtual classes was the cherry on the top! I’ve tried their beginning Pilates and Cardio classes, but my favorites will always be the Bollywood and Bhangra sessions! I think everyone should definitely try a class once and you will become addicted just like I did :)

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to the Pad since January 2, 2020. Yes, it was just one of those initial new year resolutions which I was not very confident about following to the tee, to be very honest, but once I started coming to this place, I just could not help, not coming! The Pad is amazing! The people here are amazing! Shaazia, Abbas, Rupesh, Shekhar, Soumen, Natalia, Pau, Abi, Nikita- They are all amazing instructors! I have been doing Bollywood, Zumba, Kickboxing and Pilates for the last one and a half months and love how my body is gradually transforming. I have lost almost about 6 kilos in the last few weeks and cannot wait to hit my goal weight. Pilates has also helped me with my knee and back pain. So, all in all, this has been a very very rewarding association. If you are looking to get fit in a healthy and fun way, you have to come to the Pad. Sure, it is a fitness centre but people here are actually invested in your well-being. I have not missed a single class till date (unless I have been traveling) because these guys really care about you and make you feel like home. P.S.- This review is not paid, just in case if you were wondering :)

Fantastic experience: Love the Pad! This has become my happy place. Very comfortable and pleasant environment. The instructors are attentive to your existing physical conditions and encourage proper form when conducting the exercises. The all around service is personal and everyone makes you feel like you are part of the Pad family.

Fantastic experience: During the Covid Pandemic, I was introduced to The Pad's Virtual/Online Pilates & Dance classes. I would like to highlight that my experience has been extremely enriching and I am grateful to Shaazia (Pilates) and Abbas (Dance) for not only helping me create a fruitful workout routine but also proactively working with me to improve my problem areas, be it strength or mobility. The team at The Pad is fantastic and takes genuine interest in all their clients, special mention to Shaazia, who by far is one of the most superior Pilates instructors I have come across.I can vouch for their high quality of service and would definitely recommend it to a lot more people out there who are looking to train/learn under very capable and enthusiastic instructors. I would like to thank the Pad for being one of the key drivers in maintaining my sanity/ mental & physical health during these unprecedented times.

Fantastic experience: An excellent facility with the most genuinely caring, knowledgeable and enthusiastic team. Whether, it's dance, pilates or any other form of exercise, you'll find an eager trainer to help you navigate your workout journey. During the COVID pandemic, I'd been taking private classes with Shaazia and she has not only helped me physically with my many physical problems but her commitment kept me committed to my workout routine. I'd complete my daily exercises without slacking off thanks to her. Thank you, The Pad for helping me stay Healthy and frankly a little sane during this crazy time.

Fantastic experience: I had been Pilates regularly since 4 years when I first came to Pad. I thought I knew exactly what they were offering so I resisted visiting for months even on a friend's insistence. I ended up attending a Pilates Chair class through Classpass (omit?) and was blown away. The class was so challenging and worked muscles that I didn't know existed in my body. This experience was repeated class after class. I thought I was regular, fit and working hard but not seeing results till then, now I knew - the small cues from The Pad trainers made all the difference. During the course of my membership, I happened to injure myself and was so grateful to already be with Shaazia in privates. I am certain that I have averted further injury, pain or even a surgery with our regular sessions. I don't know what I did in the name of Pilates before, but this is magic.

Fantastic experience: “I, Savita Nair, had a great time attending the workout session. After each session felt an overall increase in energy. For me it treats pain, I am having frozen shoulder and spondylitis problem since a year and with this lockdown experienced a new pain ……back ache. Pilates exercise helped me treat my pain with no medicine, infact its fun to do as it’s a combination of breathing and strength.”

Fantastic experience: I felt each and every muscle in my body move like it has never moved before. If you are into fitness, you have certainly not completed the journey without experiencing a session at The PAD.

Fantastic experience: My most Favorite place to workout! I was always wanting to be fit and go healthy, but clearly gym got really boring for me and I was not seeing any major changes in my body. That's when I got to know about THE PAD which had newly opened in Greens, Dubai. One trial class with Shaazia, my first time trying out Pilates and I wanted to join them. Now Almost 6 Months of training with The Pad and its wonderful trainers, its changed my life in a manner I can't really explain, specifically in regards to fitness and Health. First few classes and you slowly start seeing changes ( of course with a bit of healthy lifestyle). From the trainer to everyone associated with The Pad has been really warm, friendly and always motivating you, its literally like going home but to workout and dance. That's exactly how they make you feel as well. The studio is amazing. Its definitely one of my Favorite places to chill. So anyone in Dubai looking out to experience an amazing journey to being fit and Dance their heart out, then THE PAD is the place.

Fantastic experience: I genuinely love coming to The PAD for my workouts and I try to come at least 4-5 times a week. I look forward to working out with Shaazia, Rupesh, Abbas, Elena, Immie, Erika and Nikita. They r a fab team of instructors and do their best to keep u positively fit. I have tried a variety of classes such as Mat, Equipment, dance etc and thoroughly enjoy them. Through my workout sessions at The PAD: 1. My posture has improved 2. My stamina has increased after the cardio sessions 3. I make conscious efforts to be in a correct posture and maintain my breathing during the exercises. If we feel any discomfort, the instructors always ensure that we are progressing well. 4. The mind and body coordination is alive and active in every class and is a great active meditation. Totally recommend working out at The PAD for increased flexibility and stamina and more importantly fun!
