Chalk Training Ground is a group-training gym inside New Golden Mile 3 on The Palm Jumeirah, next to Nakheel Mall. Most of its timetable is adult coaching, from Hyrox race preparation to Strong Lifts strength sessions and erg conditioning on rowers, ski-ergs and bikes. For families, the class to know about is the Young Athletes Club. The gym's classes page lists it under a Youth tag as coached strength and conditioning for younger athletes, built around movement, mechanics and confidence under load. Its booking system lists it for children aged 4 to 12, working on strength, endurance and conditioning. On the live schedule it runs on Fridays from 1:30pm to 2:30pm, with up to 20 places, and a pay-as-you-go session is AED 120. A parent or guardian gives written consent when the child registers. The gym says every class is coached from start to finish, with scaling options for each movement. Golden Mile Galleria parking, about 10 metres from the entrance, is free for the first two hours.

The activity

Fitness Classes, explained

A fitness or strength and conditioning class for children is coached exercise that teaches children to move well before they move heavy. For younger children it is mostly games, running, jumping, crawling and throwing. Older children start learning basic patterns such as squatting, hinging, pushing, pulling and landing, using body weight or light kit, then finish with short, game-like conditioning. A good coach scales every exercise to the child, puts technique before load and keeps an eye on form. It builds coordination, body awareness, stamina and confidence, and it supports other sports like football, swimming or tennis. Starting ages vary between programmes, so check the age band before you book.

Who it's for

Children aged 4 to 12, as the gym's booking system lists the Young Athletes Club. A parent or legal guardian gives written consent at registration, and each session has up to 20 places. No ability level is set, and coaches scale every session, so ask the gym on +971 50 771 2818 about older children or anything your child needs. Individual memberships are for over-18s. Outside Young Athletes Club sessions, the gym's terms keep children out of the training area unless a parent is with them on the cafe side.

What to expect

The gym says every class is coached from start to finish: a warm-up, movement guidance, the main training piece and clear scaling options. Young Athletes Club sessions last 60 minutes, and the booking system describes them as work on strength, endurance and conditioning. For a first visit, the gym asks you to arrive about 10 minutes early to check in and meet the coach. Wear comfortable training clothes and suitable training shoes, and bring a training towel, because Chalk does not provide towels. Shower gel and shampoo are provided in the changing rooms. Whether a child's first session is free or discounted is not published, so ask the gym on +971 50 771 2818 before you book.
