If you haven’t already heard of the new fitness world that is Define Body, down at Dubai Marina, then prepare to be AMAZED. Choose from Rev (think a rather hardcore spin class that’s crashed into a weights session and you’re getting close) or Mind (aerial yoga) or Body (Barre) classes that will get you into shape…and then some.
