FitRepublik Fitness Center: Opinions
Fantastic experience: “I am currently training with [mohammad labouri], and it has been a great experience so far. He’s very professional, motivates me every session, and makes sure I do the exercises with proper form. I’m already seeing improvements and enjoying the workouts. Highly recommend him!”
Positive experience: Went along for a trial one day session mainly to see if thi splace really lives up to the hype and would be a good gym to join, sadly after the intial greeting at reception it all started to raise eyebrows. First you need to go through another set of electronically monitored access gates to get to the changing rooms, and again to get into other parts of the gym, in fact you spend a lot of time scanning access gates than really needed. The mens changing rooms are in desperate need of a refurb! Old, kinda dirty, and not welcoming at all.... the showers are kinda ok but they are the kinda shower you have just to get home and have another shower to clean off! Credit where credit is due, reception team was awesome, helpful and attentive but once inside the first thing to see is the construction to the left which is not protected as well as it should be, you even have to walk over and avoid construction material to get upstairs... Once upstairs in the cardio area you suddenly realise, not only is all the equipment very old, but a couple of the few treadmills they have don't work and the ones that do are very outdated. Warm up done and back down the stairs, walk over the construction site and then try to navigate to find a resistence manchine, which are all again outdated and old! In general I think this place has great potential, just needs some work, maybe the construction work is part of a bigger refurbishment that includes replacing the outdated old machines and equipment, one would hope so! Shame reallly..... parking is good, location is good, size of location is great, pool is good, but needs urgent updating!

Negative experience: I gave this app one star because the customer service through WhatsApp has become terrible. No one answers. The reception team is professional, but they can’t help if there’s an issue with the app. It looks they the cutting the cost as before the response was good. Even the cleaning gym equipment before was there is sign for cleaning but not any more. I am not sure why they are not maintain in same level.
Dear Mahmud,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you were unable to get a speedy response through WhatsApp, as member experience is always our number one priority.

Negative experience: Take so long just to do one day trial, no sense of urgency or anything, the lady I spoke with on WhatsApp blatantly ignored me and showed no sense of remorse
Dear Yusuf,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your recent experience and understand how frustrating it must have felt when your trial request wasn’t handled as smoothly or promptly as expected.
On this occasion, the agent you first contacted was assisting another client and your request was forwarded to another team member. We regret that this transition didn’t feel seamless and that you felt ignored in the process. That is never the experience we want for our guests.
We are reviewing how trial requests are managed to ensure quicker, clearer communication going forward. We’d love the opportunity to make this right and arrange your trial visit without delay. Please reach out to us directly at [email protected] or on +971 4 246 1500 (call/WhatsApp), and we’ll personally assist you.
Warm regards,
The FitRepublik Team
Negative experience: They have a vegan bowl that is cooked with the same rack at the meat, it taste just like meat and they claim that it is cooked on a new rack. As a gym they need to have respect for dietary preferences.
Dear Maya,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and understand your concern regarding dietary preferences. While Zinn is an independently operated restaurant within our premises, the experience of our guests is very important to us.
We’ve shared your feedback directly with the Zinn management team to ensure it’s addressed, and we’ll continue to work closely with them to uphold the standards our community expects. If you’d like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or on +971 4 246 1500.
Warm regards,

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) at FitRepublik for a while, and the recent coaching change has been a true game-changer. The previous coach had serious ego issues , handing out blue belts like candy to his favorites, regardless of their time or skill, and even bullying students who got attention from others. It was frustrating and demotivating. With the new coach, it’s a completely different story — committed, attentive, and genuinely invested in his students’ progress. Every class feels purposeful, and the improvement is clear. The difference is truly night and day!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that the new coaching has brought such a positive change to your Jiu-Jitsu journey. It’s great to know that you’re feeling motivated, supported, and seeing real progress in every class. Your growth and satisfaction mean a lot to us, and we can’t wait to see you continue thriving on the mats ❤️

Fantastic experience: i love coach mohamed so much hes my favourite and hes always there for anyone whos in trouble. i even have a nickname that i call him everytime i see him. the camp is also equally as amazing because theres so many activities to do and everyone there is so welcoming.
Thank you for sharing such a warm and genuine review! We’re so happy to hear how much Coach Mohamed means to you. It’s also great to hear you’re loving the camp and its community. Knowing you feel welcomed and engaged in the activities means everything to us. We can’t wait to have you back again soon!
Negative experience: When I initially signed up for the annual membership, I was informed that I could cancel it if I relocated. Now that I’ve moved both my residence and workplace to a much farther location, my cancellation request has been denied. Unfortunately, I still have six months left that I’ve already paid for but can no longer use — and the salesperson who assisted me is no longer responding. This feels unfair and disappointing.
Hi Rania,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We completely understand how relocating can make it difficult to continue attending, and we’re truly sorry to hear how frustrating this has felt.
While our memberships are bound by terms and conditions that don’t allow for cancellations mid-term, our team has shared alternative solutions with you that may help make your membership more manageable. Please know we want to support you in making the best use of the time remaining, and we’d be happy to discuss these options further to find what works best for you.
You can reach us directly at [email protected] or WhatsApp +971 4 246 1500, and a manager will gladly assist you.
Warm regards,
FitRepublik Team
Fantastic experience: Had an excellent session with Mohammed Labouri. Patient with my lack of gym fitness and very able to explain the machines and best ways to get benefit from them. Would definitely recommend
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear you had a great session with Mohammed, he’s truly dedicated to making sure every member feels supported and confident, no matter their fitness level. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
Negative experience: Reception guys really un professional.
Fantastic experience: Clean gym with Very good classes and service!
Thank you so much! We're happy to hear you're enjoying the classes, service, and cleanliness. We’ll keep it up
Fantastic experience: Our child Vasilisa Tsiazhkina has been doing well gymnastics at Fit Republic from 3 years old and now she in stage 4 . She has been coached by Coach Precious, Coach Kudzi and Ambre since she was 3 years old and currently Coach with coach Maris and Coach Mae. We're greatful to have a coach like them. They have a good balance between caring and encouraging the gymnastics to do the best they can and just this few months she won in gymnastics competition!!!... Those coaches have impressive wealth and depth of knowledge that they freely share with the students in a supportive manners.We have always had an open line of discussion with the coaches who gladly make themselves available to talk whenever possible. We feel very fortunate to have our child at such a great gymnastics club. Love Tsiazhkin Family .
Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt message We're incredibly proud of Vasilisa’s journey and all the progress she’s made. Winning a gymnastics competition is such an exciting milestone, and we couldn’t be happier for her!
We’re also so grateful to hear how much you value the dedication and care of our coaches. They truly put their hearts into supporting every gymnast, and your recognition means a lot.
It’s a privilege to be part of Vasilisa’s growth, and we look forward to seeing her continue to thrive and shine!
Fantastic experience: من أفضل الأماكن الرياضية التي زرتها في دبي، يوفر جميع احتياجات الرياضيين مثل المسبح، الصالة الرياضية، صالة خاصة للكروسفت، بالإضافة إلى مطعم مميز. أنصح بزيارته بشدة لمحبي الرياضة واللياقة.
Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤️ We're thrilled to hear you had a great experience at Fit Republik and that you enjoyed the full range of our facilities. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back again soon!
Negative experience: Extremely disappointing and alarming experience. I registered my 6-year-old son for a full week of activities at FitRepublic, trusting they would provide a safe and supervised environment. On the very first day, I found my child alone outside near the road, under the sun, with no supervision whatsoever. He had passed two security barriers and was left completely unsupervised no staff even noticed he was missing until I brought him back inside myself. This is not a minor issue. This is a serious safety failure that could have ended in tragedy. As a parent, I was absolutely shocked and heartbroken. I immediately withdrew my son and requested a full refund. I sincerely hope this review helps raise awareness and pushes FitRepublic to take real accountability to ensure this never happens again to any child.
Thank you for taking the time to share this, and we are deeply sorry for what you and your son experienced. Your concern is not only understandable, it is absolutely justified. The safety and well-being of every child in our care is a responsibility we take extremely seriously, and we are alarmed and saddened to learn of this incident.
We are actively investigating what happened and are conducting an urgent internal review. This should never have occurred, and we are taking immediate steps to ensure it never happens again. This is absolutely not the standard we strive for.
We are committed to full accountability and corrective action, and we would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly if you're open to it, so we can offer a personal apology and update you on the measures being taken.
Fantastic experience: RE Swimming Lessons: LTS Beginner with Amy Bovens Amy has a unique ability to meet her students at their individual level, allowing her to quickly identify and address specific challenges from the outset. Personally, I struggled significantly with rotation and side-breathing during freestyle, and my backstroke capacity was quite limited. Amy focused on strengthening my fundamentals, giving particular attention to these areas. As a result, my confidence and enjoyment in the water improved exponentially. She is both extremely passionate and kind in her approach, capable of providing a strong foundation that enables any swimmer to progress and thrive in the sport. Thank you Amy and Swimming Team at FitRepublik!
Thank you for this beautifully written feedback! We’re thrilled to hear how impactful your experience with Amy has been. Her ability to tailor each lesson to individual needs is truly a gift, and it’s inspiring to see how her guidance helped strengthen your fundamentals and boost your confidence in the water. Here's to more progress, more joy, and many great swims ahead! ♂️✨
Fantastic experience: Fit Republic is one of my favorite gyms in the area—I come here almost every day and have always appreciated the facilities and atmosphere. However, I’m really disappointed with a new rule regarding the wristband. If you forget it, you’re either sent home to get it or required to pay 53 AED to enter. The last two times I forgot mine, I was only allowed in after spending a couple of minutes arguing with the reception. Today, I had to pay the fee—even though the staff knows me well and I’m a regular member with a disability. I don’t think this is a fair policy, especially considering how expensive the membership already is. It feels like a harsh punishment for something that can easily happen to anyone. Policies like this might push loyal customers to consider other gyms with more understanding and flexibility.
Fantastic experience: المكان جدا جميل واحترافي انا لفت نظري الاخ علي ماجد يتابع الاطفال الي موجودين فالمعسكر بصراحة قمة فالاحترام واسلوبة معهم جميل يحببهم للنشاطات شكر خاص له ولادارة المجمع الرياضي
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the space and noticed Coach Ali's efforts. He truly goes above and beyond with the kids. His respectful, positive approach makes activities more enjoyable and helps the children feel encouraged and engaged. We’ll be sure to pass along your special thanks to him and the rest of the team. We appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back soon! ✨
Fantastic experience: My son joined the summer camp and its great the activities are very interesting and Coach Ali is amazing taking care of all and doing a great job
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We’re so happy to hear your son is enjoying summer camp and having a great time with the activities. Coach Ali is truly fantastic, and we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. It means a lot to us that your child feels cared for and engaged. Here’s to more fun and memorable camp days ahead! ☀️
Fantastic experience: My daughter loved gymnastics at fitrepublik & enjoyed the competitions. Last 2 terms were with coach Mohammed. She didn’t want to move with any other coach . Highly recommended if you love gymnastics & looking for a supportive & motivating coach
Thank you for this lovely feedback! We’re so happy to hear how much your daughter enjoyed gymnastics and felt supported by Coach Mohammed. He truly has a gift for motivating young athletes while making training fun and rewarding. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words, and we hope to see her back flipping and smiling with us again soon! ♀️✨
Fantastic experience: Been going here since 2022, great place to workout! Recently started a PT program with Mohamed Amine Labouri and it has made such a big difference! Personalized attention inside and outside of the gym helps me in staying accountable and push to get better results! 10/10 Would recommend!
Thank you for being with us since 2022, your loyalty means the world! We’re so glad to hear Mohamed Amine Labouri has made a big impact on your fitness journey. His dedication and support, both in and out of the gym, truly set him apart. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. He’ll be thrilled!

Negative experience: Very disappointed with the lack of response from the kids swimming department.
Hi Ziad, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly.
Please contact us at 04 556 1800, or share your contact details by emailing [email protected], so our management team can get in touch with you.
Negative experience: Facility is Great but not our Swim Coach. My child 4yo female used to do private classes and was improved in swimming. Due to vicinity of our private classes we had to shift to Fit republik since it was closer to us. Mind you, per their report on the first semester my childs hand and arm control was great. Then, the second report from great to none. I would say our coach was not competent and not persuasive to kids. She would chit chat to neighbouring coach instead of reach “coach” the kids. Doesn’t talk, aside from calling the attention of the kid. Not engaging and my child swimming skills was not improved after two terms with them, it was even resulted to low performance.
Hi Amira, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly.
Please contact us at 04 556 1800, or share your contact details by emailing [email protected], so our management team can get in touch with you.
Negative experience: Very stupid way to enter the gym and very arrogant reception team... the one who placed the system in place not sure how he lives in Dubai
Hi Abdulrahman, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly. Please contact us at 04 556 1800 and ask for Omar or email us at [email protected], so our management team can reach out to you.
Fantastic experience: Mohamed Labouri is an amazing trainer
Thank you for the shoutout! Mohamed Labouri is truly one of a kind—dedicated, knowledgeable, and always bringing great energy. We’re so glad he’s made a positive impact on your fitness journey. See you back at the club soon!
Fantastic experience: Coach Amer is a karate coach and an academic specialist in training children. A former international champion, he holds the rank of 5th Dan. My child has changed significantly—from a weak child who was bullied by others to a strong, disciplined, and emotionally balanced individual. Thank you, Coach.
Thank you for this heartfelt message. Coach Amer is not only a world-class athlete, but also a mentor who brings out the best in every child he trains. We’re so proud to see the transformation in your child—it’s a testament to Coach Amer’s dedication, expertise, and care. Stories like yours remind us why we do what we do. ✨
Fantastic experience: We recently celebrated our son Adam’s birthday at Fit Republic, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! The venue was perfect – we had 1 hour of MMA followed by 1 hour of swimming, and every moment was full of fun and excitement. A huge thank you to Coach Diago and Grace who did an amazing job keeping the kids engaged, active, and happy the entire time. Their energy and professionalism really stood out. The food was also excellent – fresh, delicious, and well-prepared. Everything ran smoothly, and the whole setup was spot on. All the kids left with big smiles (and were completely tired out after 3 hours of non-stop fun!). We couldn’t have asked for a better birthday celebration. Thank you, Fit Republic!
Wow—what an amazing celebration! We’re thrilled to hear Adam’s birthday at Fit Republik was such a hit. Coach Diago and Grace will be over the moon to know their energy and care made the day extra special. From MMA to swimming and smiles all around, this is exactly the kind of experience we love creating. We’re so glad the food, setup, and vibe all hit the mark. Thanks for choosing us to be part of such a memorable day—we can’t wait to welcome you back for more fun-filled moments! ♂️
Fantastic experience: Great place for training and make friends!! Amazing coaches especially in Martial Arts.. I Did Boxing and was awesome!!
We love this energy, thank you! We're so glad you had an awesome time boxing and felt the magic of our Martial Arts community. Our coaches are truly passionate about what they do, and it means the world to hear it’s making an impact. Here’s to more training, more progress, and more friendship. See you back in the ring soon!
Negative experience: I was sent a time-sensitive deal from Fit Republic offering a full membership for AED 399. It included everything from gym access to CrossFit, martial arts, and even guest passes. The message clearly came from Fit Republic and had a strict deadline, so I headed over that same day with the intention of signing up. Unfortunately, the experience was nothing like what was advertised. When I mentioned the deal, the staff barely acknowledged it and instead tried to sell me a completely unrelated package that cost several times more. No real explanation—just a hard push for a more expensive membership. I left feeling pretty annoyed. If you’re going to run flash promotions, at least make sure your team is actually honoring them. Felt like a classic bait-and-switch.
Hi Yuri, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly. Please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.
Negative experience: Misleading Summer Promotion Once Dubai’s top gym, Fit Republik has declined badly. Service, quality, and trainers are disappointing. It tries to do too much but excels at nothing. Management focuses more on sales than fitness. The misleading summer promotion was the last straw.
Hi Karan, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly. Please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.
Negative experience: Very dissapointed by the service of the gym
Hi Jesca, thank you for your feedback. We would like to address this with you directly. Please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.
Negative experience: It’s worst gym I ever trained in , the staff are very bad in communication and very slow and please ask about everything before you pay becuse the say a lot of rules that doesn’t let you know before , and they think they are right in everything and they don’t even listen to you
Hi Ahmad, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly. Please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.
Negative experience: Disappointing Decline from What Was Once Dubai’s Top Gym Having lived in Dubai for over a decade, I remember when joining Fit Republik was a status symbol — the place to train, network, and be seen. Sadly, those days are long gone. What was once a standout facility has seen a steady decline in quality, service, and credibility. I have an office directly across from the gym with 90 staff, over a dozen of whom I personally referred to Fit Republik. Unfortunately, the experience has left all of us disappointed. While I’ve maintained my membership out of convenience, I now rely on other gyms for actual training value, better facilities, better staff, and more transparent pricing. Fit Republik today feels like it’s trying to do too many things but fails to excel in any area. Most of the quality trainers have left, and it’s not uncommon to see members in better shape than the staff. Management appears more focused on business development and sales tactics than genuine fitness expertise. The final straw came last week with a misleading summer promotion offering full access. FLASH OFFER – 12 HOURS ONLY Lock in your golden rate now! Get Full Access Premium Membership for just AED 399—nearly 50% OFF! ✅ 300+ weekly classes ✅ Unlimited Gym, CrossFit, Hyrox, Martial Arts, Aquatics, Group Exercise, Mind & Body, Gymnastics ✅ 24 Guest Passes ✅ 24 Hot & Cold Tub Sessions ⏳ Offer ends at 9 PM. ⚠️ Limited spots—once it’s gone, it’s gone! Don’t miss out; reply LOCK MY SPOT now! Despite it being actively advertised, my friend and I were denied access to the offer and it’s not the first time this has happened, on this occasion we were offered something completely different and their team refused to give us the offer which was on promotion. We ended up leaving without our memberships and a bad taste in our mouths with another friend not joining due to the same issue, this has now happened multiple times and is an ongoing joke in our offices. As it stands, none of the members from my company will be renewing, and I know many others who share the same sentiment. It’s sad to watch what was once a respected gym lose its reputation due to poor leadership and customer service.
Hi Dean, thank you for your feedback and we would like to address this with you directly. Please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.

Fantastic experience: Best academy in Dubai!
Fantastic experience: FitRepublik offers high quality classes and training sessions to those ranging from any athletic background. Within their aquatics department, FitRepublik offers high-level training programs and intermediate swimming classes which people can join, and in my case, swimming with Coach Ahmed Gebrel in FitRepublik's Gold Squad for the past 3 years has been great. Their well-managed 50-meter olympic sized pool, competitive starting blocks, and experienced coaches have made me improve significantly. Furthermore, FitRepublik's swimming facility is clean, with the changing rooms being modern and spotless. Overall, I highly recommend training there.
Fantastic experience: Definitely the best gym in Dubai! The energy here is on another level. All the coaches are top-notch, but a special shoutout to Safouen, Ricardo, and Hasan — these guys are incredible! They're always there to support you, push you to your limits, and still keep things super fun. The atmosphere during classes is electric, and the music they play is always on point. If you're looking for a place that motivates you, challenges you, and makes you actually look forward to working out, this is it!
Fantastic experience: Joining this gym has been one of the best decisions for me. The facilities are great, but the real stars are the trainers. Safouen, Ricardo, and Hasan are exceptional. Their guidance have pushed me to achieve things I didn't think were possible. Love it!
Fantastic experience: Love training at FIT Republic. New equipment, great atmosphere. I usually go for the LBT classes – perfect for legs and abs with Ricardo Lourenco.
Fantastic experience: i really like fitrepublik. i train swimming here 6 times a week and i have no complaints about it. it is a very organized and clean place and reccomend it. fitrepublik is my favorite gym. i also want to mention my coach, coach ahmed who really helped me on my swimming journey and has helped me progress so much.Best coach ever
Fantastic experience: Guys if you visit this gym ask for Gerson as he is a phenomenal coach! His genuine care, laser focus on improvement, and respect for every athlete make him a true legend. He inspires greatness and brings out your best with every session. Absolute GOAT! 10/10
Fantastic experience: I’m super happy with the Group Exercise instructors in Fit Republik, I really like Ricardo’s Body Pump, Circuits and LBT classes. He is super energetic, very dedicated and always correct members to do the correct exercises. I’m coming to Fit Republik for 10 years and I never felt so good in a gym like this one.
Fantastic experience: Fit Republik is such an awesome place. The vibe is always motivating, and the coaches are amazing — especially the swimming programs and CrossFit Aptior. The Adult Fitness swimming classes have seriously improved my technique, and I always look forward to every session with Coach Dylan. The CrossFit Aptior community is such a vibe — supportive, fun, and always pushing each other to be better. The coaches really care about our progress, whether we are learning a new skill or grinding through a tough WOD. They make training challenging but enjoyable. If you want to get fitter, move better, and be around awesome people — THIS IS WHERE YOU BELONG!
Fantastic experience: My daughter has been doing gymnastics at Fit Republic for 3 years and is currently level 6/7. She has been coached by Coach Emrys and Coach Sabina. Both have a good balance between caring and encouraging the gymnasts to do the best they can, tailoring their approach for each child. Both coaches have impressive wealth and depth of knowledge that they freely share with the students in a supportive manner. We have always had an open line of discussion with the coaches who gladly make themselves available to talk whenever possible. We feel very fortunate to have our daughter at such a great gymnastics club.
Negative experience: Thank you coach Amer for your professionalism and care what you are giving to our kids
Fantastic experience: i love the place. amazing facility and variety. and thank you Omar for the constant support
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love it here! The group classes with Ricardo, Hasan, and Safouen are fantastic. Also in the mind & body programs, Livin’s classes are amazing—truly the best of the best!!! I can't recommend them all highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Amazing facilities all embedded into one. Definitely a place to recommend. I am current swimmer in the gold squad and recommed coach ahmed.
Fantastic experience: The gym is really clean and nice. I really enjoy Ricardo’s exercise classes, they’re fun and motivating!
Fantastic experience: My happy place!
Fantastic experience: Fit Republik is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve been to. I’ve been a regular for about a year now, and the classes are a major highlight for me. I spend most of my time in Ricardo’s classes—they’re full of energy, easy to follow, and somehow the time always flies by. Also, I’m a huge coffee snob, and Zinn serves the best coffee in Dubai. Couldn’t recommend Fit Republik more!
Fantastic experience: Fit Republik has been a game-changer for me. I started attending classes about 9 months ago, and I genuinely look forward to every session. The variety is great, but Boot Camp, Body Pump, and LBTs are the standouts for me. The instructors are all fantastic—really knowledgeable and encouraging. Ricardo, in particular, brings so much energy and personality to his classes. He makes tough workouts enjoyable, and his instructions are always spot-on. The whole place has such a welcoming, community vibe. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Coach Irina is hands down one of the best fitness coaches I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. From day one, her energy, professionalism, and passion for fitness were incredibly motivating. She has a rare ability to push you to your limits while still making every session enjoyable and engaging. Irina tailors every workout with precision, ensuring it matches your personal goals and fitness level. Her deep knowledge of strength training, functional movement, and mobility work means you’re always progressing safely and effectively. She pays close attention to form and technique, which has not only improved my performance but also helped me avoid injury. Beyond her technical skills, Irina is a phenomenal motivator. She genuinely cares about her clients’ progress and is always ready with encouragement, smart advice, and a contagious positive attitude. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, I can't recommend Coach Irina enough. FitRepublik is lucky to have her, and so are we!
Fantastic experience: What a great fitness centre! Thank you for comfortable conditions and new equipment Especially I am grateful to strong and smart instructor - Irene. Her qualifying comments and big support make my training really powerful and correct

Ирина, я очень рада, что попала именно к тебе! Ценю нашу работу и результат.
Fantastic experience: Coach Irina at Fit Republik in Motor City is an excellent personal trainer — professional, supportive, and always tailoring workouts to your goals. She follows up closely and keeps you on track. The gym is spacious, well-equipped, and conveniently located. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Fit Republik for over 3 years, using the gym, joining classes, and especially swimming. The facilities are excellent, and the environment is always motivating. Coach Dylan has been my swim coach for more than 2 years, and his sessions have helped me improve my technique and confidence in the water. Every class is different and focused on progress. Highly recommended for anyone serious about getting better in the water!
Fantastic experience: Friendly gym ! Amazing coach ! Join us !
Fantastic experience: Craig Lesley is truly one of the best group exercise instructors I’ve ever trained with. His professionalism, deep knowledge of fitness, and engaging personality—combined with his great sense of humor—make his class a non-negotiable part of my weekly routine. From the moment you step into his class, you’ll understand why it’s exactly what your fitness journey needs. Yes, it’s challenging—but the results speak for themselves. Craig knows how to push you in all the right ways while making the experience enjoyable. He is without a doubt one of Fit Republix’s greatest assets. Don’t miss his class—you won’t regret it!
Fantastic experience: Top class equipment and highly experienced instructors. Classes are great!
Fantastic experience: Great for CrossFit and Weightlifting
Fantastic experience: Great facility and amazing atmosphere
Fantastic experience: I’ve joined FitRepublik in 2019 and started CrossFit end of 2020, hands down the best fitness community in Dubai, you’ll feel welcomed no matter your fitness level, trainers are friendly and helpful in each class. The Strength and Conditioning program is the best in Dubai! You can find different types of classes from endurance to mobility to powerlifting.. there are dozens of gyms in dubai, and many CrossFit areas, but you’ll not find a place like this one.
Fantastic experience: Been working out there for three years in the CrossFit area. Definitely the best gym in Dubai.
Fantastic experience: S&C here is the best in Dubai. Shout out to all the incredible coaches ✌
Fantastic experience: Great place turning pigs into beasts. Love the coaches and the free parking. We need more classes during the weekend.
Fantastic experience: Crossfit Aptior! The best coaches and the best community!

Fantastic experience: Berlin is a wonderful , and a very helpful person.
Hi Adem, we’re thrilled to know our team has made your experience at FitRepublik even better! Looking forward to supporting you on your journey.
Negative experience: Rubbish sales team. Unprofessional, do not follow up on inquiries, take forever to respond. Was in contact with Raemond and Hope. Makes you wonder how some people have jobs. Waste of time..better options available.
Hi Omar, we’ve looked into the matter and found that our team responded professionally and within a reasonable timeframe. We’ve also made several attempts to reach out to you to clarify and assist further but have been unsuccessful. If you’re open to a conversation, we’d be happy to reconnect and address any remaining concerns.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facility for swimming , Muay Thai and infact any sport . Great coaches and programmes
Hi Jayant, thank you for your great feedback! We’re excited to be a part of your fitness journey at FitRepublik and look forward to seeing you again soon!
Negative experience: I had a bad experience with FitRepublik - sports city, as they asking to buy the bracelet access as non-refundable without this you cannot enter the gym, this for Privilee members. I had to call Privilee customer services and they totally disagree with that. And they asked them to allow to enter without paying any additional cost as I’m active member. Better to share!
Positive experience: Restrictive and unfair cancelation policy . The gym is great and, as a full member I can say that classes and facilities are stunning. However, the recent cancellation policy is completely unbalanced and dictatorial. Currently, if you either cancel later than 10 hours prior to the class or do a no-show twice in a week they penalize you by freezing the chance of book any class for a week. 1. Applying the same penalty to a no show than to a late cancellation is exaggerated. A no show is inadmissible but a late cancellation gives room to other people to book and use the class. It shouldn’t be on the same level 2. There are million reasons why you have no option but to cancel the day before or even the same day. Unexpected Health issues , a bad night, traffic. Family, etc… . 10 hours notice is too long. If any event occurs, canceling is a respectful and kind gesture but still gets hardly punished. 3 if you want to change/swap a class on the same slot for any reason , the system forces you to cancel, hence : penalty. 4. It feels like a boarding school ruling system 5. The system applies the penalty to all the classes, regardless which one was cancelled 5 Possible solutions: A. Full penalty for a no show B. Give 2 hours notice for late cancellation. C. Apply equal penalty, proportionate to the number of events ( 2 late cancellation = 2 days penalty) D. Apply penalty only over the cancelled class, not blocking all booking system for everything else E. If you do a late cancellation but the class is not full or someone else could occupy the slot, then it shouldn’t exist penalty. The gym is not impacted for this, so it is not fair to ground members for this. This tries to be a constructive feedback but the reality is that this new system is really annoying. Fit Republik is not cheap and this restrictive system blocks weeks out of a membership that you’ve already paid. It’s abusive
Hi Elena, Thank you for sharing your feedback—we truly appreciate it.
We understand your concerns and would love the opportunity to explain our booking policy in more detail.

Negative experience: Horrible timings. For being the only main gym in Dubai Sports City area and closing at 9pm on a weekend night, especially during Ramadan is absurd. Not sure why or who has come up with these timings.

Fantastic experience: Got
Hi Nicholas, thank you for your great feedback! We’re excited to be a part of your fitness journey at FitRepublik and look forward to seeing you again soon!
Negative experience: My daughter goes there for gymnastics. Coach Mohammed Sami is really good and my daughter’s progress accelerated because of him - but this was all ruined because of my horrible experience with re-registration . I have been calling, emailing , whatsapping to get my daughter registered again for term 3 for weeks and yet can’t receive confirmation. They told me the class is full on one day yet managed to register other students on the same day. I have been requesting a call back from the unreachable program manager for over a week now yet no response. Other slots are gone too just waiting. This is very frustrating and unprofessional, all the channels of communications are purely a waste of time.
Hi Zeinah, we’re thrilled to know our team has made your daughter's experience at FitRepublik even better! Looking forward to supporting her on her journey.
Negative experience: Disappointed with Fitrepublik’s Treatment of Long-Term Members! I’ve been a loyal member of Fitrepublik for six years, always appreciating the facilities and community. Unfortunately, I recently faced a frustrating situation. Due to a knee surgery, I was unable to attend the gym for six months—a situation I proactively informed them about in advance. Now that I’m ready to return, I was shocked to learn that my founders' rate has been revoked because my membership “expired,” despite my long-term commitment and clear communication. Instead of supporting a dedicated member recovering from surgery, they’re insisting I pay the new, higher rate. This is not how loyal customers should be treated. It’s disappointing to see that longevity and transparency mean so little.
Dear Mohammed,
Our team members have tried to reach out to you several times concerning this matter with no success.
Supporting our loyal members, especially those recovering from injuries, is our top priority. We always strive to go the extra mile to ensure you receive the best possible experience at FitRepublik.
Please reach out to us again so we can address this matter—we truly value you as part of our community and would love the opportunity to assist you. You may call or WhatsApp at +971 4 556 1800, or email us at [email protected]
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Negative experience: Great training venue but the management is not professional. They don’t care about your basic needs, had to move to another place.
Thank you for your feedback. We want to address this with you directly, so please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.
Negative experience: A decent gym and the rating would be higher but they lose a star for each of the following: 1) limited car parking due to nearby construction 2) half the toilets are permanently out of service 3) Half the lockers in the men’s changing room don’t lock
Thank you for your feedback. We want to address this with you directly, so please provide your details by contacting us at [email protected] so our management can get in touch.
Fantastic experience: It’s my first time in this gym. I have to commend the service provided by Rajiv. He’s so kind! Pleasure to meet him! I’ll be back soon!
Hi La Vie, we’re thrilled to know our team has made your experience at FitRepublik even better! Looking forward to supporting you on your journey.
Fantastic experience: As a level 2 gymnast here i really like fitrepublik and the coaches are really nice. They help you improve by pushing you out of your comfort zone but not too much. The gym is huge and has everything you need for practice including two trampolines, lots of bars and beams and a huge floor area. It has a cafe with really good food and a nut-free section. I really recommend going here if you want to do classes or even just work out.
Hey Noona, we're glad you're enjoying the facilities at FitRepublik and that our team has made your experience even better! We take pride in providing the best environment for your fitness journey.
Fantastic experience: I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for Omar Nahhas, who has been an incredible asset to Fit & Studio Republic Gym. From the very beginning, Omar has gone above and beyond to address my concerns and complaints, ensuring that I feel heard and valued as a member. His dedication to client satisfaction is truly commendable. Omar is always keen to assist with any requests I have, making me feel like my experience at the gym is a top priority. It’s refreshing to see someone who genuinely cares about the well-being of clients, and his positive attitude makes a significant difference in the overall atmosphere of the gym. Thanks to Omar, I feel confident that I’ve chosen the right place to pursue my fitness goals. His commitment to ensuring that all clients feel important and appreciated is a testament to the values of Fit & Studio Republic Gym. I highly recommend this gym, not just for its facilities, but for the exceptional support provided by team members like Omar. Thank you, Omar, for making my experience so positive

Fantastic experience: One of my fav spots to work out!
Hey Mahmoud, we're glad you're enjoying the facilities at FitRepublik! We take pride in providing the best environment for your health and fitness.
Fantastic experience: Gym equipment is good quality and generally it gets only reasonably busy but not too excessive. Main reason to join is for the classes, coaches are really friendly and welcoming, lots of different classes to learn new things and a great community of people. One of the best gyms I've been to. I've been using it for the gym and CrossFit / weightlifting / gymnastics classes so can't speak much about the other classes or facilities as there's a lot of other things to try!
Hi George, we're glad you're enjoying the facilities at FitRepublik and that our team has made your experience even better! We take pride in providing the best environment for your fitness journey.
Fantastic experience: If you are considering PT or gym membership as you head into the new year I recommend Rob and the team at Crossfit Aptior. The crossfit coaches at Fit Republik have created such a special community that really encourages growth and commitment. I started with Rob Begley as my personal trainer after attending one of his classes with a friend. His ability to motivate everyone, whether they’re complete beginners or more experienced, and the way he breaks down tasks to make them understandable for someone with little gym technique is impressive. Rob is a consistent source of support and understanding - he gets work and family life impacts on energy but never lets you use them as an excuse not to train. He helps me refine my technique and celebrates the small and big wins - I genuinely enjoy training consistently. A year later, with Rob’s guidance, I’ve gone from sporadic sessions to training 5–7 days a week, and I can see real progress. My children also train here with Sara Hindarsh, who brings the same passion, humour, fun and expertise that will mean they understand technique from a young age and will never be afraid to step into a gym later in life. The entire team of coaches are a joy to work with.
Hey Tracey, thank you for your great feedback! We’re thrilled to know our team has made your experience and your kids' experience better. We’re excited to be a part of your fitness journey at FitRepublik and look forward to seeing you again soon!
Fantastic experience: It is one of my favourite gyms, very clean, lots of equipment and great staff at the reception.
