Get Fit Abu Dhabi launched this month, with classes and activities to suit all manner of fitness and health seekers in the capital. The free-to-attend initiative by Department of Community Development is held in collaboration with 10 malls in the main city, Al Ain and Al Dhafra – so residents can get a workout in between their daily shopping routine. The event is ongoing until November 30.

Here’s where you can go and what you need to know.
