Fitness First Ibn Battuta Mall

Positive experience: Spacious enough to accommodate members but not in term of equipment. I always come in on unusual timing ( 10am or 3pm ) but surprisingly I still have to spend good amount of time looking for a spare dumbbell or kettle bell. Personal trainer are super nose - up , specially when you turn them down on PT program offer. They will unfriendly tell you not to touch the equipment which they reserve for their own client, which is unfair.

Positive experience: Trying to become a member. But not able to give time for it. Lots of my friends are working out here and they are well satisfied .

Positive experience: classes are great . good equipment but needs more care , lockers and washrooms need serious cleaning

Fantastic experience: I think this is the best fitness center in dubai it's so convenient and it's on so many locations you dnt have an excuse to visit the gym

Positive experience: They will make you sign a contract when you join. And they tell you that you can leave any time you like after your contract finishes, but then later they tell you that you have to inform a month in advance, even if you're not on the contract anymore. They also set up an auto-payment system to debit your card automatically every month. The personal trainers will keep pushing you to take personal training classes, because that is how they make most of their money. The group classes are the only good thing but almost always packed. The men's showers smell like toilets.

Positive experience: Near side gym which I have signed up, Place most of the time busy machines are ok if it’s compared with other new gym

Positive experience: Fitness First at Ibn Battuta Mall boasts spacious areas for both weightlifting and cardio equipment. There in the main studio they don’t clean at all after class nor between classes. You will see sweat on the floor from previous classes totally disgusting . I myself clean the floor where I will exercise However, some members have odor/bad smell issues from bad sweating smell to food spices smell within the gym, which can detract from the overall experience. Hope this gym turn into titanium so we get better members quality. At Gym showers also there is a bad smell. On the bright side, the gym's classes are a standout feature, with professional and motivational coaches leading a variety of engaging sessions. Whether you're into high-intensity workouts or more relaxed yoga sessions, there's something for everyone to enjoy and benefit from.

Fantastic experience: I renewed my membership and still excited. I like group lessons with Tiago,Bruno, Roehl, boxing with Alvin and pump with Parastoo. Zorana, Paul,Akpo,Khai - rush, omg, that's really crazy lesson)))

Fantastic experience: An exceptional gym option in the area, boasting ample space and a diverse range of high-quality training equipment. My personal trainer, Manu, offers exceptional guidance and support, truly elevating this gym to a top-tier fitness destination

Fantastic experience: Workout was great, and the coaches were super motivating.

Fantastic experience: Good

Fantastic experience: I love this place and it’s ambience. Specifically in the morning time , the bustling activities make me more energetic. Enough space to accommodate many visitors at a time. Post -gym hot shower in fitness first is ultimate experience.

Fantastic experience: Conveniently located with plenty of parking.

Fantastic experience: My journey with Fitness First, particularly with trainer Amal, has been nothing short of remarkable. From the moment I stepped into the gym, I was greeted with a warm and motivating atmosphere that instantly made me feel at home.The gym boasts top-of-the-line equipment and facilities, providing a conducive environment for achieving fitness goals. What truly elevates the experience is the expertise and dedication of Amal. His passion for fitness is palpable, and his knowledge is extensive.Each session with him is not just a workout but an educational experience. Amal takes the time to understand my fitness objectives and crafts personalized routines that challenge and inspire me to push my limits while ensuring proper form and safety. He goes above and beyond in helping members and guide them on right ways of workout. Highly recommended!

Positive experience: The Dumbbell section If you want 10 KG dumbbells, it will take 10 minutes to find the Dumbbell

Fantastic experience: The training space, Facility and Proximity, being inside the mall itself makes it 5/5, the staff and personal trainers are all approachable for assistance and questions, cleaners and locker rooms are very clean. I didnt avail the personal trainings which i cant give any comment. Drinking water is free, coffee is free [havent tried it].

Fantastic experience: ✔

Fantastic experience: So far so good. Around one month in here but I can feel the energy of the group class coaches. They are on fire man. They give you the boost what’s needed. I also understand that it’s not possible to concentrate on individuals of classes 20+ people but that’s okay they also have PT for that if you require the same. Zorana , Bruno , Petras

Positive experience: Very outdated equipment, nice and calm place when I work out tho .

Positive experience: I've been regularly going to this branch. Good machines ... etc. My request is to fully isolate the prayer room because you can hear music in the background while praying, which prevents us from focusing, thus gave 3 stars.

Fantastic experience: Nice gym, enough variety of equipments ,big cardio area and functional training space !!! Nice staff , I like train there lunch time very quiet !!!

Positive experience: If you are looking to get fit and learn the art of fitness this is the place for you and I am your friendly neighborhood PT (Personal Trainer) aka Coach Veer. Ciao & See you there !

Fantastic experience: I recently had a fantastic experience at Fitness First Ibn Battuta Mall. The facility is top-notch with modern equipment and a clean environment. Manu Madhavan, the trainer, deserves special mention for his exceptional knowledge and dedication. He went above and beyond to create personalized workout plans and motivate me throughout my fitness journey. I highly recommend Fitness First Ibn Battuta Mall and Manu to anyone seeking a remarkable fitness experience.

Fantastic experience: Spacious gym. All the equipment one needs. Good ppl. No one bothers anyone

Fantastic experience: Always feel at home in FFIBN ❤️❤️

Fantastic experience: Gives a very LA fitness centre look. Love working out here

Positive experience: Enjoying the classes Thank you Leny for convincing us to enroll. My son enjoyed the Jump kids too..

Fantastic experience: Fitness First is a wonderful well equipped gym. Air conditioned, good changing rooms with showers. Lots of new equipment to let you workout any way you want to. Also, Adnan Khan is an excellent personal trainer. I have been under his guidance from last 8 months and have got a very drastic change in my lifestyle and routine. His knowledge about maintaining good health and sharing & communication is really helping out a lot to stay fit. Furthermore he have wonderful knowledge about fitness field and gives proper guidance regarding nutrition plans. I am happy and now more confident with myself. I definitely recommend Adnan Khan to anyone looking for great quality personal training.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to this gym for a year now, and the service is exceptional. My journey with coach Ron for the past three months has been incredible; if you want to see a real change, I highly recommend him! His dedication to his client's goals is second to none. Not only are the workouts fun, but they are also very effective. Ron always ensures that the client feels comfortable and pushes you to your potential.

Positive experience: Spacious, but needs a modernization! Cons: Usually crowded at the end of the day. There should be more cleaning of the equipment, especially after the classes. Changing room is decent, some amenities could be added (cotton buds, makeup pads, etc.). Pros: Good value, free parking just next to the China court entrance and good location. Staff is attentive and the instructors are good.

Fantastic experience: The gym facility is the best in city. The huge spaces for the free weights and GX are a plus points. There are so many classes you can choose from with competent and friendly instructors. I have a PT named Adnan and have tremendously help me in my fitness journey teaching and guiding me the right exercise form and curated me programs including diet that works best according to my metabolism and caloric intake. I must say I have the best results in such a short span that I have never had with other PT and gym club. Highly recommending this gym club!

Positive experience: Incredible recovery journey from a critical injury to returning back to playing sports. Kudos to my Trainer Amal who guided me throughout the journey with stage wise routines and work out plans. Would definitely recommend Amal to anyone who would like to receive the best quality attention and care for injury rehabilitation. Great gym but can definitely do much better as well in terms of updated Equipments.

Positive experience: The only reason I'm still a member of this gym is because of the personal trainer, Adnan Khan. There is no other reason why I should recommend this branch to anyone. About Adnan: I have a condition known as spinal stenosis, which results in acute lower back pain. Thanks to Adnan and his rehabilitation sessions, I haven't experienced pain for the last 6 months and counting. He is very professional, well-informed, and has a great experience in his field. On a personal front, he is very humble and energetic. About Gym: The gym facility is nicely located in Ibn Battuta mall (China Court). Unfortunately, the gym equipments are poorly maintained. The machines make all kind of noises which they aren'tsupposed to be. Some grips have worn out, but gym management doesn't care to replace them, regardless of multiple complaints. I'm sorry to say but there are gym facilities which charge much less for membership, comparatively, and are beautifully maintained. If the management doesn't do something about it, I might have to think twice at the time of membership renewal.

Fantastic experience: This review is for the Fitness First facility located in Ibn Batuta Mall. The facility is amazing and full of enthusiasm. The whole environment inside the Gym is very impressive, energetic and full of positivity. Further to add special thanks to my trainer Mr. Manu Madhavan. He is quite prompt, very impressive and very talented trainer. He knows his work very well and that is proven on me. I am very satisfied after joining your team and specially having Manu as my trainer. Your sales team member- Ms. Julliane. She is also so talented, beautiful and very charming sales executive. She has a very smiling face. She is also full of positivity. She has nice and friendly attitude which is a plus point for any sales person.

Fantastic experience: A good place to begin your fitness journey. I began training here over a year ago under Mr Amal Devan as my personal trainer. A very professional & dedicated man to cater to all your fitness needs including weight loss, injury rehab, strength and conditioning, motivating & guiding you on each step. If you plan on taking personal training, I would highly recommend to get in touch with Mr Amal Devan

Fantastic experience: One of the finest clubs in the area, with incredible group classes and fabulous trainers. I also took personal training sessions with Amal, who is exceptionally encouraging and motivating and pushes you to reach your goal. Highly recommend him for your fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: Loved every part of it, spaces, classes machines and best coaches I've worked out with here so far....

Fantastic experience: Im proud to say that this is my Home Gym as this gym is the best gym in town! The gym is huge with complete facilities. I'm so happy that they have steam and sauna which makes it perfect for us women. I love their variety of Classes and their timings cater to working peeps. And of course, they have the best staff and instructors on board! Very friendly, warm, and welcoming - always happy to assist you when you need something. I would like to give special commendation to Ms. Leni who is always patient to answer all my questions ;) What more can I say, I definitely love this Gym. Best way to stay healthy and be happy at the same time.

Fantastic experience: Love fitness first! My journey with fitness first doesn’t just begin with this branch I’ve been using it since 2020 in Abu Dhabi, I wouldn’t miss out on mentioning my trainer Mr Amal Devan who’s fantastic! he’s not just my personal Trainer he’s a friend and a mentor and a great motivator, He deff knows his stuff! From exercise form to technique he walks me through everything! I have been training with Amal for over 6 months now and I can say he’s the best in the branch! Extremely Satisfied and happy

Fantastic experience: I am regularly using IBN Batuta branch for my exercise routine. Gym is well equipped and properly maintained.They also have various group classes that are amazing. All the staff is so welcoming which make it a comfortable place for workout. I recently had the pleasure of working with Amal as my personal trainer, and I cannot express enough how impressed I am with his expertise and dedication. From the moment we began our training sessions, I knew I was in capable hands. First and foremost, Amal’s knowledge of fitness and exercise is truly remarkable. He took the time to assess my fitness goals and created a personalized training program that perfectly aligned with my needs. He explained every exercise in detail, ensuring that I understood the proper techniques and the benefits they would bring. His depth of knowledge gave me the confidence that I was receiving top-notch training. He has an infectious enthusiasm and a genuine passion for helping his clients succeed. His positive reinforcement and constant encouragement keep me motivated throughout the entire process. Amal’s professionalism and reliability are also worth mentioning. He was always punctual, well-prepared, and attentive during our sessions. He consistently provided constructive feedback and adjusted the program as needed to ensure continuous progress. His advice was practical and easy to implement, leading to positive changes in my overall well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend Amal as a personal trainer. His extensive knowledge, unwavering motivation, and personalized approach make him a standout professional in his field. Working with him was a transformative experience, and I'm grateful for the positive impact he's had on my fitness journey. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced fitness enthusiast, Amal will undoubtedly help you reach your goals and unlock your full potential.

Fantastic experience: I think Google review wouldn’t be enough to commend the amazing work that coach Jeri has been doing, not only for me but to the people in the club. It’s always a pleasure and fun workout sessions with her because she makes you feel good about yourself. She supports you, challenges you but also puts you to be safe all the time. She makes your goals as her own, and this is very important because you would never be shy in front of her. She understands your level of strength but also pushes you to bring out what she sees that you can do already, but also guides you every step & every move. I am surprised at myself that there were exercises that I was scared to try before, but she never left my side and did the exercises with me. I could frankly say that she’s the only person in the room who would not only instruct you what and how to do the routine, or count the seconds and watch you, but she actually performs the exercises with you, as if the session is her workout day too! I learned a lot from coach Jeri, not only about taking care of my physical well-being but the values such as discipline, and confidence that goes with it. She taught me integrity on this fitness journey as it’s important for her to achieve your goals. Coach Jeri also presents herself very beautifully. Her level of professionalism is high. I am proud to know her, and I would forever be grateful for all her hard work. This journey wouldn’t be as fun and motivating as it turned out to be, if not for her. More power coach Jeri and the whole Ibn Battuta club!

Fantastic experience: The Fitness First gym in Ibn Battuta Mall is a great place to work out and stay in shape. The gym has a wide variety of equipment and classes to choose from, and the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful in creating a fitness plan that suits your needs. The gym also has great promotions and discounts throughout the year. Overall, I would highly recommend Fitness First in Ibn Battuta Mall to anyone in need of a quality gym and fitness center.

Fantastic experience: I've been training at Fitness First Ibn Battuta Mall for three months now and the experience has been transformative. This gym is top-tier, clean, and equipped with all the essentials. Manu, my personal trainer, has been a game-changer for me. His expert guidance, patience, and motivational spirit have pushed me to reach new heights in my fitness journey. I can't emphasize enough how much I appreciate his personalized approach to my training. In just a short span of time, I've seen substantial improvements in my fitness levels, and it's all thanks to Fitness First Ibn Battuta Mall and Manu. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to embark on their fitness journey. Truly a 5-star experience!

Fantastic experience: I love the classes in fitness first, they are so energetic. Body combat and spinning are my favorites and coach Fabio and Bruno they are absolutely amazing. Their classes are FULL POWER ON . Thank you everyone for your extraordinary work

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Coach Amal! He's been my PT and I was very impressed with the changes I've made over these past 3 months. He is so dedicated to his clients and if you want real change, then he's your guy! :)

Fantastic experience: Good gym. What makes it unique are the trainers. Would recommend Adnan Khan. He'll take time to understand your lifestyle and medical history amd curate a personalized program (training & nutrition)

Fantastic experience: It’s more than a year now I have been working out in fitness first Ibn Batuta branch. The gym is well Maintained through out the year with eager full ears to extend any help required. I have been immensely benefited by the active guidance of trainer Adnan who helped me to gain confidence through significant loss of weight and better body shape in last 1 year and still continuing. I wish Adnan and the team at Ibn Batuta fitness first all the very best for continuing the good work.

Fantastic experience: I like my trainor here. His name is Ron, he is very enthusiastic in helping me overcome my stress and encourages me to lose more calories each day. He is my trainor in boxing and I personally love this session because I get to release more of my stress thus, I feel lighter and in the mood after every session. I also love their classes like zumba, tuff and dance workout, you burn calories while having fun..

Fantastic experience: Being a member here feels like you belong. The staffs are very warm and accommodating as always. The environment is is very inviting to go more. Intructors and coaches are really great as they will.push and challenge you. Special shout out to Ms. Leny, if not for her, we will not be convinced to become members. KUDOS TO THE TEAM

Fantastic experience: My wife and I happened to be looking for fitness training options. We chose two gyms to make a visit to, and decided to choose from the one we ended up liking. We made a tour to the first gym - FITNESS FIRST and were so overwhelmed with their kind gesture and welcoming at the gym and the efforts they took to show each space of the gym - explaining how to make the best out of each, and showing us the available classes and equipment. Then we went upstairs, had a word with Ms Marie who showed us the gym and provided us various options. We told Marie that we would also make a visit to another gym as well, and then decide where to join. She said one thing very confidently - 'I'm sure you guys will come back to FITNESS FIRST to join.' Surprisingly we had a very bad experience with the other gym, as they seemed so disinterested when we asked about the gym and simply asked us to take a look at their pamphlet with gym prices. When we asked if we could take a tour or explain things, they said - 'What do you want to know? We can answer any questions you have.' We said - 'Thank you for your time', and went straight back to FF and joined that very same evening (haha). Thus began our fitness journey with FF. The very next day we started our gym and incidentally happened to pass by Trainer Mr Anoop who welcomed us so cheerfully to Fitness First. As we initially get 2 free sessions from a personal trainer - I specifically asked for Anoop. I would like to say that from day 1 till today we have been consistently going to the gym owing to the motivation, support and hard training which Anoop made us do from the very beginning. Helping us out, and giving us that much needed extra push and drive, has been remarkable. Anoop has an overall very pleasant vibe which is infectious and leaves anyone who meets him, feeling light and positive. They way Anoop explains to us the exercise name, how to properly do it (without straining or cramping your muscles or joints), which part the particular exercise will benefit and the pattern to be followed is worth mentioning. We are giving a huge shoutout to Anoop for opening the door to something we never imagined we would be interested and driven to pursue - health and fitness. Now, we feel much more confident in using the various fitness equipment and doing different exercise routines. While doing more difficult sets - Anoop's light jokes make the sessions much more lighter and enjoyable. The true concern Anoop shows is evident while pushing us to complete the routines, but at the same time constantly enquiring if we are ok and whether we are experiencing pain. Special mention about Jedie - the receptionist who greets us every morning without fail, with her super cute smile. She is an asset for FF and is doing an amazing job at the front desk. Now if we do not go to the gym, our day is incomplete. We are so thankful to Anoop for his tremendous efforts and care for us - on our journey of Fitness First. We will definitely be continuing our journey with FF without fail - and will recommend FF to anyone who asks us for gym recommendations.

Positive experience: I joined gym after eight long years and it was different world for me when I went with my friend who helped me in knowing the place. He even introduce me to a trainer name Manu(Maddy). He really helped me getting my form right. He trained me so well that even after going on break twice in 6 months I was able to come back with same passion n same power. The gym is equipped with enough equipment to train perfectly. Incase you want to join with a trainer please ask for Manu. He joined this year itself and has already won rookie award. But he is in fitness since ages.
