Your first personal training session in Dubai: what to expect

A conversation before a workout

Your first session with Ramin lasts 45 minutes and has no package commitment. It begins with a conversation about why you want to train, your previous experience and what could fit into your week. You do not need to choose a package before meeting him. The aim is to find a sensible starting point together.

Agree on the location first

Tell Ramin your Dubai neighbourhood and whether you prefer home, your building gym or another gym. Check that the venue permits an external trainer. Any entry fees or other location-related charges should be agreed before the appointment. Sending a booking request does not reserve a slot; wait for Ramin to confirm the time and place.

Keep your preparation simple

Wear comfortable clothing suitable for movement and bring water. Think about what you want help with and the questions you have about training. You can discuss relevant exercise limitations directly with Ramin; there is no need to put medical details into the website form. The trial workout should be chosen after that conversation rather than copied from a generic assessment result.

Leave with a clear next step

The session includes a guided trial workout and a simple first-week outline. Afterwards, you can discuss paid coaching: a single 60-minute session is AED 300, eight sessions are AED 2,000, and twelve are AED 2,880. Ask about scheduling, package validity and rescheduling before purchase. You can also decide that you need more time.

Questions worth asking

Ask how your training will be adapted, how progress will be discussed, what you can realistically attend each week, and whether your preferred location works long term. The right first session should make the next decision clearer, not pressure you into an immediate commitment.
