Dubai's fitness marketplace — helping journalists, bloggers, and content creators tell the story of the UAE wellness scene.
GetFitDXB is Dubai's leading two-sided fitness marketplace, designed to connect verified fitness professionals with motivated clients across all 15 Dubai communities. We solve a critical problem in Dubai's fragmented fitness landscape: helping residents discover, compare, and book fitness services from personal trainers to yoga studios to wellness clinics — all in one place.
The platform was founded by Fredrik Filipsson, an 8-year Palm Jumeirah resident and business executive who spent years visiting gyms and fitness studios across the world. After repeatedly being the "go-to person" for fitness recommendations among his expat network, Fredrik recognised that Dubai — despite being one of the world's most gym-dense cities — lacked a unified discovery platform. GetFitDXB was built to change that.
Our two-sided marketplace now features 500+ verified fitness professionals across gyms, personal training, yoga, pilates, CrossFit, boxing, martial arts, swimming coaching, physiotherapy, nutrition, and corporate wellness. We've published 300+ in-depth editorial articles covering every angle of Dubai's fitness scene — written by the founder with first-hand knowledge of the city's neighbourhoods, communities, and services.
GetFitDXB exists to strengthen Dubai's fitness community by making professional fitness services accessible to all, and giving fitness professionals the platform and tools to build sustainable businesses.
