I love ROAR. Being new to Dubai I needed a base for PT with like minded people where I could progress my strength work and feel at home. I really love the space, the team and the music!! It’s a true community. Todd, my PT, is excellent and I’d really recommend him. He has made me stronger than I’ve ever been and people notice. I notice. I’m really pleased with the progress and can’t wait to see it continue. He pushes me. He listens and encourages me to bring my best everyday. His nutritional advice is strong, consistent and realistic for me with my lifestyle. I appreciate the personalised approach he’s taken to both my training and nutrition.

I've been training with Kareem at Roar and I am really happy with my progress. Kareem is an amazing PT - professional, knowledgable, and amicable and knows how to push you. Highly recommend training with him.

Signed up to RoaR back in July and I’d highly recommend it. From the welcoming initial consultation onwards,  an individualised training and diet plan is set for you, which essentially guarantees results if you follow it.  The sessions with Alfie have been awesome and I’ve built strength / muscle rapidly,  James is a walking encyclopaedia on nutrition who knows his stuff.  Both trainers have taught me lots of useful things around training and nutrition that I’ll take in to practice beyond my time at RoaR.

I have been training for 12 weeks with Todd who has been excellent at guiding me through exercises and has pushed and motivated me to achieve more than I thought possible. Todd is also very knowledgable about nutrition and has given me many tips to help with my diet. I would thoroughly recommend training with Todd!

The gym is well kitted and quiet which is great given I’m antisocial. My trainer Todd is actually pretty good (won’t tell him that) and somehow gets me to keep coming back. I’m not going to say he makes it enjoyable but given that I’ve now been going consistently since February it can’t be that bad. The stars are mainly for Todd.

I have been training for 3 years at Roar. Todd is an excellent trainer! He’s incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and always comes prepared with a clear plan for each session. He knows how to challenge and motivate you while keeping workouts positive and enjoyable. I really appreciate his attention to detail, encouragement and we still have good fun together (except leg day ;))

I’ve only had one session with Todd so far, but I was genuinely impressed.

He listened carefully, understood exactly what I wanted from the session and tailored everything accordingly. Most importantly, he knew when to push and when not to. I never felt pressured beyond what was sensible or comfortable.

He comes across as knowledgeable, considered and very professional. A great first session, and I’m looking forward to continuing to train with him.

Highly recommend Todd at Roar.

I’ve had a fantastic experience at Roar. Todd Gouldborne is an exceptional trainer — highly professional, knowledgeable, motivating, and genuinely invested in helping you get the best out of every session. I’m very  happy with the progress we’ve made and always look forward to training with him.

Roar itself is on another level. The quality of the coaching, facilities, and overall experience is outstanding, and I’m very happy to be a member.

Highly recommended — and a special shoutout to Todd for doing such a great job!

I would highly recommend Todd at Roar. His breadth of knowledge and ability to keep me working hard while navigating my perimenopausal aches and pains have been fantastic! He listens, adapts and keeps our sessions enjoyable. I also really appreciate his holistic approach to my fitness—encouraging me to eat well but also to enjoy the off-plan days! A great trainer and a lovely person. Thank you, Todd!

I’ve been training at Roar was just the studio I was looking for, great sunlight…. for the past 3–4 months I’ve been training with Sam and couldn’t recommend him enough. Top lad, genuinely invested in his clients and always puts the effort in.

What I really appreciate is how involved he gets in your journey,  he pays attention to your progress, pushes you when you need it, and works around your schedule and individual needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Overall the gym has, great energy and just an all-round place to pickup on your fitness journey. Highly recommend.
