The Jumeirah Islands gym to know
Looking for a new gym near JLT, Marina, or Jumeirah Park? RAISE Fitness & Wellness is one to know. With sleek interiors, Technogym kit, and a dreamy outdoor training overlooking the water, it’s the kind of space that makes workouts feel less like a chore and more like a lifestyle move.
Here’s five reasons we keep coming back...
The views
Floor-to-ceiling windows. Waterfront views. Jumeirah Park views.
Whether you’re on the treadmill or mid-strength set, the outlook at RAISE instantly lifts your session, bringing a sense of space and nature into every session. It’s light-filled, calming, and feels like a breath of fresh air – a reminder that gym time doesn’t need to feel like a grind.

The outdoor training area
Functional training hits different outside, especially with cooler mornings back on the calendar.
RAISE’s alfresco zone is kitted out with a sled track, rig, barbells, plates, and wall balls. It’s got everything you need for a CrossFit-style or hybrid session in the fresh air, no matter your level.

The location
Tucked away, yet close to everything.
Minutes from JLT, Marina, Springs, Meadows, and Jumeirah Park, it’s a perfectly-placed training spot for weekday routines or weekend resets. Bonus: Joe’s Backyard is just around the corner for a post-gym bite (and yes, it’s on Privilee too).

The aesthetic
Boutique feel, natural light, and sleek interiors.
This isn’t your typical gym floor. From the well-organised layout to the backlit mirrors and floor-to-celing windows, RAISE is designed to feel calm and contemporary, with premium touches throughout.

The equipment
Serious kit, thoughtfully laid out.
You’ll find Technogym free weights, squat racks, a multifunctional rig outside, and cardio favourites like Skillmills, StairMasters, treadmills, and bikes. It’s high-spec, high-function – made for movement, not crowds.

⏰ Earlier starts, incoming
Good news if you like to train early, from Monday 6th October, RAISE will be opening from 5:30am on weekdays. More time for sunrise workouts, more flexibility around your schedule.
