Palaestra Dubai

Palaestra Dubai is an intensive five-day padel training program taking place from Nov 18–22, 2026 at an indoor padel arena in Dubai. Open to players of any level, the camp features two coached sessions per day with FIP-certified coaches.

Training takes place across 3 courts with a maximum of 9 players, allowing for focused coaching and individual attention throughout the camp.

📚 The Training Method

The Palaestra Method is built on three key pillars:

Master the fundamentals with clarity

• Focus on movement, positioning, and shot selection
• Understand why you win or lose points
• Get real-time corrections from coaches

Train with purpose

• Drills with clear goals and repetition counts
• Tactical patterns adapted to your level
• Sessions structured like professional academies

Compete better under pressure

• Match-play scenarios, targets, and timed sets
• Build decision-making and consistency
• Learn to close points — and matches

🧠 Personalized Progress Plan
