Art Director
Tom Wrench
After a busy day, there’s nothing like getting a game in and unwinding on the beach after
Meet Tom Wrench, Privilee's Art Director, who’s been part of Privilee for nearly four years. For the Dubai Fitness Challenge, he’s making the most of the cooler weather with a few favourites—Kite Beach being at the top of his list.
A morning at Kite Beach
Tom’s ideal start? Walking his dog or cycling along the Kite Beach stretch to soak up the sunrise energy before the day begins. He’s found this scenic route the perfect way to squeeze in some cardio, alongside his weight training and mobility sessions. “I love being outside as much as I can,” Tom shares. “Kite Beach is a great spot—cycle, unwind, and even sneak in a workout at the beach’s outdoor gym.”
Padel, açaí bowls, and team time
When it comes to activities, Tom is all about balance. One of his go-to Privilee routines includes hitting the courts at Just Padel, Kite Beach, with his colleagues. "After a busy day, there’s nothing like getting a game in and unwinding on the beach after." And for a post-game treat? Tom heads over to SKM'D for an açaí bowl, keeping it light and refreshing—a perfect cooldown combo.
Top fitness tips
Beyond workouts, Tom recommends using Privilee as your ultimate guide for wellness. “Whether you’re looking to break a sweat, catch some sun, or find a spot for a healthy breakfast, Privilee has it all.” He also suggests mixing up your venues: “I’m aiming to try 700 Padel & Fitness Hub next; they’ve got some new recovery options like a sauna and ice bath I’m eager to check out.”

Hidden Gems
If you’re a fan of industrial gym vibes, Warehouse Gym in Dubai Design District is a must-visit. For a more relaxed setting, he suggests grabbing an iced latte at Social Company at Zabeel House The Greens which has a dog-friendly area, or heading to Ikigai Resto & Bar for a chill evening with friends. Tom is discovering the social side of Privilee just as much as the fitness side. “Getting a group together for padel or a weekend workout gives us a chance to get together outside the office and it keeps me motivated.” For Tom, Privilee isn’t just about staying active; it’s about creating a lifestyle that seamlessly combines fitness, wellness, community, and downtime.
Privilee Members get two complimentary padel games per month. Choose from 90-minute games at Just Padel venues or 60-minute games at Mantra, Padelae, and Ahdaaf Padel Club.
