      14 Dubai-based Pilates studios to visit in 2025

      by

      Looking to revamp your fitness routine? Then Pilates might be the perfect option for you.
      With celebrities such as Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner, elevating their fitness routine with reformer Pilates, it’s time for you to take up a session or two.
      This once forgotten exercise trend has made a comeback since it was first invented by Joseph Pilates a century ago. With social media been the force behind its resurgence, this popular workout channels the mind-body connection to achieve precise, controlled movements that promote alignment, balance and strength.
      Designed to improve physical strength and coordination, form long-term habits and ensure greater core strength, these workouts allow to strengthen your muscles and feel mentally fit. Pilates can help create long, lean, and defined muscles, while also helping to reduce stress, creating awareness in the body, and improving mental clarity.

      Introducing Family by Solutions Group…
      The award-winning Solutions Group is a dynamic hospitality company behind some of the UAE’s best loved venues, from Instagrammable beach clubs for sun-soaked days, to gorgeous date night dinner spots.
      But keen to cater to all occasions, Solutions has launched a new family edit across its dining and leisure portfolio, making sure those with little ones don’t have to miss out on all their favourite quintessential UAE experiences. Their new family-centric, approach means adding early dinners and child-friendly experiences within their collection of beloved restaurants and beach clubs.

      The new vertical, Family by Solutions Group, sees the introduction of family dining until 9pm at venues including colourful En Fuego at Atlantis, The Palm; Papas, the cosy Italian trattoria overlooking Dubai Marina; and pan-Asian hotspot Asia Asia’s four outposts at Pier 7, Business Bay, Palm Jumeirah and Yas Bay in Abu Dhabi. So, when you’re heading out with little ones, you can still enjoy dining at some of Dubai and Abu Dhabi’s best culinary spots – and still make it home for bedtime.

      At its fun-filled entertainment destinations Central in Abu Dhabi and Wavehouse in Dubai, there’s fun for all ages. From bowling to arcade games, these already family-centric destinations are enhanced with activities like brunches, birthday party packages and bundles that ensure you can maximize your day out.
      Then there’s also making some of their daytime destinations child-friendly too. All ages are invited to enjoy sun-soaked fun in the sun at boho-chic Ula and Miami-cool The 305. Think dips in the sea, chilling out at the beach, and enjoying alfresco dining in the spacious restaurants where dedicated kids’ menus cater to all ages.
      And there’s still more to come. Ula will introduce its Little Gems beach club in the coming months, which will be tailored to the little ones to create some splash time moments all-year round.
      It’s a natural evolution of the hospitality group, explains Paul Evans, CEO and Co-founder of Solutions Leisure. Having introduced his first dining experiences in Dubai over a decade ago – the group wants to ensure those who were first coming to Solutions’ venues in the beginning – who’ve now evolved into parents and families themselves – are still part of the family.

      43 mins ago

      The Spanish megastar is making his UAE return… 
      Enrique Iglesias is the hitmaker behind some of Latin pops biggest tunes, and he regularly sells out his UAE concerts. Which is why you’ll want to snap up tickets quick for Enrique Iglesias live in Abu Dhabi later this year.
      The Hero hitmaker is set to perform at Abu Dhabi’s Etihad Arena on Saturday November 1.
      Ticket’s aren’t on sale yet and prices are still to be confirmed. But if you want to be among the first to get your hands on them, you don’t have long to wait – Live Nation’s pre-sale begins at 9am on Monday March 24, so be sure to sign up via live nation.me.
      It’s been almost a year since Enrique Iglesias brought his electrifying show to the UAE, when he performed to a sellout crowd at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai in September 2024. One of the most listen-to artists of all time, he’s amassed more than 40 billion streams throughout his two decade career, amassing an array of record-breaking hits in both English and Spanish.
      From his sultry Latin dance tracks like ‘Tonight’ and ‘Bailamos’ to his emotional ballad, ‘Hero’, and his sing-along pop hits like ‘Do You Know,’ his repertoire of hit singles is as diverse as it is timeless. And you can expect to hear them all when Enrique Iglesias performs live in the UAE capital later this year.
      Shows to add to your events calendar

      If you can’t wait until November to inject some live music into your life, then there’s plenty to look forward to before then. In April, Irish rockers The Script will headline at Dubai Media City Amphitheatre on April 12, then Usher, Snow Patrol and Rare are part of an all-star line-up of headliners at Club Social Abu Dhabi from April 18 to 20.
      Other gigs to look forward to include Ed Sheeran, who headlines Offlimits music festival on April 26 in Abu Dhabi, and Natalie Imbruglia, who performs at Dubai Opera on August 23.
