If you’re looking to break tradition in its entirety and find a workout class that makes you feel like an excitable seven-year-old again, a trampoline session at Bounce may be what you need.

Body Sculpt at Gigi

While we’ve all heard of pilates, yoga, and the likes of low-intensity gruelling workouts. But Gigi Fitness Studio is the Middle East’s first, and only, Miniformer-centered workout class. Focusing on carving out each muscle in your body, the Sculpt sessions focus on elongating, tensing and exhausting each muscle to the point of growth and strength. Based on the pilates foundation, indulge in a tiring yet rewarding session in the floor-to-ceiling windowed studio.
