"When we are "fit" our body, mind and spirit are in tune with one another" Nick Kelly

About Me

I have been at both ends of the fitness spectrum and I understand how difficult it can be. Having suffered from depression at a younger age I realized my calling was to help others. My passion and experience started in my home country of Scotland in various health and leisure facilities. I then decided to move to sunny Dubai over 8 years ago to work at the luxurious Talise Fitness Club & Spa at Jumeirah Beach Hotel as a Personal Trainer and delivered circuit classes to hotel guests and clients which became one of the most popular and stellar fitness sessions in the area. I now have my own successful Personal Training and Lifestyle Consultancy. Helping, motivating, educating and inspiring others is what gets me bouncing out of bed at 4am in the morning! Nothing gives me more gratification and delight than seeing my clients change their outlook on their body and mind.

I believe that the word fitness has lost it's true meaning overtime by commonly associating it with physical attributes such as BMI, muscle mass and fat ratios. For me true fitness is another synonym of holistic health. Fitness requires regular physical exercise, healthy eating, good mental health, positive social-emotional experiences and attention to our spiritual needs. It seems so idealistic and so hard to achieve such balance, we have a tendency to overlook the amazing power of physical exercise in the overall formula for health and holistic fitness. In Asian medical traditions, it is believed that exercise is essential for health, as the flow of energy is fundamental to all life and the lack of energy flow leads to blockages and diseases. With that in mind, I can confidently advocate that exercise has a profound influence on your overall well being, and the first step to a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.

Why Train at Home?

Nowadays, our contemporary lifestyle has become extremely sedentary and digitally dependent which makes it hard to adopt and maintain an active routine within our busy calendars. Most people have gym contracts and are not motivated to attend regularly due to time constraints or low self-esteem. However, prioritising everything in life before exercise may do more damage to you in the long run. Dubai's lifestyle can be demanding, high powered and fast paced, Staying fit and healthy is even more important than before.

I will work closely with you using my experienced set of skills to seamlessly integrate physical activity and exercise into your daily routines by educating you with a combination of safe coaching methods, techniques and training equipment.

TESTIMONIALS

What Other People Have Said

I am 35 years of age and this is the first time I have properly exercised (terrible I know). I did my research when it came to finding a PT and Nick’s name came up a lot so I thought I would give his free trial session a go. I was hooked by his energy, easygoing personality and just how passionate he was about fitness and his Clients, he is not all about money like some PT's I came across, he really enjoys seeing the progress of his clients and pushes you just enough so you see quick results, but not too much so you still look forward to the next session. Each session is different so you don’t get bored. I have now gone from someone who hated any form of exercise to actually looking forward to a workout. Thank you Nick!

Cathrine

I can’t emphasize enough how great I think NK Fitness is. Nick is sincere in his desire to help on your transformation journey. With Nick, you get customized workouts, and guidance on what’s best for you to succeed, it’s not just a one size fits all program. I could see a difference in my mood, energy, sleep and waistline just after four sessions. Be ready to be accountable, you will need to put in the work too!

Nicola

I have been training with NK Fitness and have been amazed at my results. Nick is knowledgeable, motivating and fun, but will also push and challenge you! Nick takes the time to educate on techniques and explain how the different movements will help with my toning and strengthening goals. I have seen great results while training with him and feel stronger both mentally and physically.

Brittany

A few months ago I hit my rock bottom and did a search for someone who could help me. I found Nick’s website. I have reached a great 12kg weight loss. This is only thanks to Nick and his support in training and mental health. I could not have done this on my own. Nick had some good deals and a referral program too.

Angela

I started to train 3 times a week with Nick and felt more fit each time, then I decided to have a session everyday. Nick is not only a qualified trainer but also a caring person who you will want to be friends with. Once you set the goals together with Nick, he will follow through with constant reminders and suggestions to make sure that you are on the right track to accomplish your dreams! In his class, you will also make one hour feel like 20 minutes because it’s fun and challenging! If you are seeking external help to change your life, Nick is definitely the best personal trainer to influence you with positive energy.

Xenia

I asked for recommendations for tried and tested personal trainers who can come to the Meadows to train and came across Nick. I had some pretty specific time constraints and what I was looking for and Nick was great in finding a solution that would work for me. He was quick to respond and had loads of questions to find the right approach for me. Nick is friendly, engaging and goes out of his way to share his years of knowledge and experience with you. He comes with a car stocked with all sorts of equipment and comes to you! He has a few slots available so if you are interested, happily recommend you get in touch with him.

Raisa

A wonderful experience each time with a great trainer. Nick is very good with people and good company. The 1 hour sessions are always enjoyable. The sessions are bespoke, tailored and always varying. Equipment is brought to the house by Nick and you can still use some of your own in addition (if you have) to really have a good variety. A great experience coming highly recommended.

Nathan

I am so glad I came across Nick on social media as I had been told by my Doctor that I needed to get fit and change my lifestyle due to high blood pressure, so it was perfect timing. My fitness has really improved and with all his tips on healthy eating I am starting to see great results. My blood pressure has come down a lot and my eating habits have improved hugely. I was looking for someone who would be flexible as I am a business owner and Nick is really understanding and accommodates my unusual timings. What I love about the sessions is that they are always different and he shows up with all different kinds of equipment so it never gets dull. Thank you Nick for your help in changing my lifestyle, I couldn't have done it without you!

Lloyd

It's been an absolute pleasure working with Nick. He knows his stuff, and turns up on time everytime.Is keen to make sure you get what you want out of your training plan and keeps things interesting by introducing new variantants and elements to the workouts

Avinash

Great personal trainer who knows exactly what he's doing. You don't need a gym membership, Nick brings all the gear with him. I'm a newbie to exercise and enjoy the sessions with Nick. He gives me confidence and can see that I am really trying, however he pushes me just beyond my comfort zone each time. I will sign up for another batch of sessions once I have done this. He’s reliable and a good motivator. Highly motivated.
