Designed by the Royal Australian Navy, the unique fitness program takes participants through a challenging workout in the snow, involving strength and endurance training, muscle-toning, and fat-burning exercises, along with snow-based exercises such as ski hill climbing and tobogganing.

"With temperatures outside soaring into the high 40's, Ski Dubai is delighted to offer its customers an alternative to exercising outdoors," said Fuad Al-Najjar, General Manager of Ski Dubai. "We are always looking for new and innovative ways for our customers to enjoy the experience of snow and the 'Snow Fit Boot Camp' takes that experience to a whole new level."

Commenting on the unique partnership, Fitness O2's Head Personal Trainer, Ziggy Darwish said, "Snow Fit Boot Camps will keep you super fit over the hot summer period by burning an average of 500 calories per session! They are designed for all fitness levels and ages. Our trainers are world class, so participants can expect a great workout while meeting new people, having lots of fun and most importantly, getting serious results."

To accommodate all schedules, Ski Dubai is offering customers the choice of signing up for the month-long course, which begins 5th August.

The classes are held at 6:30am, 7:30am, and 8:30am on Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday mornings.

"If you're tired of the sweltering outdoors and standard gym workouts then I urge you to come to Ski Dubai for what will be an unforgettable workout experience," added Al-Najjar.
