GoogleJust finished an amazing group workout at Pad Pilates! The class offered a fantastic mix of exercises that left me feeling strong and energized. Both the instructors Abbas & Vickey, were incredibly motivating, and the studio atmosphere was both welcoming and invigorating. Highly recommend... check them out 👍🏻
I’ve been attending Pilates classes here for about 7 months and I absolutely love it. The instructors are professional and offer a wide range of fun and challenging classes every day. The Reformer sessions are especially great — well-structured, engaging, and with very detailed guidance on posture. The studio itself is clean, well-equipped with quality machines, and located in a convenient building with cafes, a market, and other amenities nearby. I’ve seen real improvements in my strength and feel more energized in my daily life. Highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for quality Pilates classes in a great location! :) 🤎
I recently joined Reformer Pilates Dubai at this studio, and it’s been amazing! The instructors are so attentive and really helped me improve my form. I’ve noticed a big improvement in my posture and flexibility. Highly recommend this Pilates studio in Dubai to anyone looking for quality reformer Pilates sessions
I just had an amazing (and definitely challenging) reformer Pilates class with Yasmin Karachiwala at The PAD fitness. As someone new to reformer Pilates, I was seriously impressed. The studio was clean and felt really welcoming. Yasmin was a fantastic instructor—so encouraging, and she really paid attention to everyone's form, offering modifications whenever we needed them. The workout itself was dynamic and targeted my entire body. Using the reformer's spring resistance was a total game-changer for engaging my core! I left feeling energized and so much stronger. It’s amazing how you can get such an effective, low-impact workout. I'm already looking forward to my next session! I'd highly recommend this class for: Building core strength and flexibility. A low-impact, full-body workout. Anyone wanting to deepen their Pilates practice.
Abbas and Zainab did a wonderful job choreographing the dances for my wedding. The only reason for not giving full five stars was some initial challenges with scheduling practice sessions. That said, I discussed this with Abbas, and he was very accommodating, making a genuine effort to adjust his schedule and support us during the final practices. All in all, they did a fantastic job and they made sure that everything went smoothly in order.
