Fitness plays a starring role on most New Year’s resolutions lists and with gyms now fully functional in the UAE, there’s simply no excuse not to work out. The cherry on the sugar-free cake is that a number of local fitness centres are gearing up for 2021 by offering annual packages brimming with add-ons and discounts. Here’s a look at some already available to sign up for. The boutique fitness studio offers specialised classes (some of which claim to burn as many as 1,000 calories a pop) in a futuristic-looking blacked-out space. The thumping music and community spirit add to the party vibe the studio is known for. While Bare's Business Bay branch is currently at maximum occupancy, a new site is opening in Mall of the Emirates in January. Membership is priced at Dh900 per month, with a joining fee of Dh400; Bare DXB also has an early-bird offer, with the first 50 people to sign up in the new branch paying Dh800 a month. Membership gives access to unlimited training classes (otherwise priced at Dh120), plus Bare's class challenges and transformation programmes, as well as priority booking.

The wellness centre in Abu Dhabi offers everything from yoga, Pilates and dance to life coaching and classes on nutrition. Starting Friday, January 1, it is offering a discount that is valid throughout the month, but needs to be redeemed by the end of March. The offer allows existing customers to buy a 10-class pack (priced at Dh720) and get two classes free, while new customers can get a 20 per cent discount on a regular five-class pack (usually priced at Dh380).
