An Indian Personal Trainer Online, for Indians Abroad: Gulf, Singapore, UK and Beyond

Live online training with an Indian coach for Indians in the Gulf, Singapore, the UK and beyond: hours in your time zone, Indian food, rupee prices.

MakeMyFitness Updated 4 min read

A coach in India connects to a learner abroad across a globe, with a suitcase and familiar meal nearby.

Why an Indian coach, when you live abroad

  • The food is yours. A coach who knows what dal, roti, rice and curd do on a plate can plan protein and a sensible deficit around the meals you actually eat, including vegetarian and Jain diets. Our lead coach holds a nutrition credential alongside his personal training diploma.
  • The language is yours. Sessions in English, Hindi or a mix, whichever you think in when you're tired.
  • The price is in rupees. ₹899 for a live one-to-one session at home, ₹7,070 or ₹8,080 for a 4-week plan of 12, which is a fraction of local personal training in most of the countries below.
  • The format travels. A phone, a mat's worth of floor and a connection. Your coach plans around a hotel room, a shared flat or the gym in your building.

Session hours in your time zone

Two clocks labelled your time and India time connect to a shared calendar.
Check both local time and India time when confirming a slot, including seasonal clock changes.

Sessions start on the hour and half hour from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM India time, seven days a week. Here is what that window is where you live.

How to book from outside India

A video-call phone and checked booking details are linked by a confirmation message.
Confirm your location, local session time and joining details with the team before booking.
  1. 1

    Message us on WhatsApp from any number

    The booking form on this site asks for an Indian mobile number. From abroad, tap the WhatsApp button on any page and tell us your goal, where you are and a time you'd like; the team books it for you. Contact details.

  2. 2

    Take a short call

    The team confirms your coach and slot, in IST and your local time, and runs through a quick health check before the first session.

  3. 3

    Pay in rupees by secure link

    You get a payment link for a single session or a 4-week plan. If your card is issued outside India, tell us before paying so we can confirm it will go through.

  4. 4

    Train

    Your session page with the Google Meet link arrives on WhatsApp, with a reminder before each session.

What people abroad usually come to us for

  • Weight gained since moving. New food, long commutes, a car for everything. Fat loss coaching with Indian meals, not a Western diet sheet.
  • Strength, finally. A gym in the building and no idea what to do in it. Personal gym training puts a coach on your phone on the gym floor.
  • Back and hip stiffness from desk work. Mobility and flexibility first, then strength.
  • Parents back home. Many clients abroad book sessions for a parent in India. Our guide to exercise for seniors at home explains what safe training looks like, and the session page works on any phone.
  • A family class across countries. A live group class can have you in Dubai and your sister in Kochi on the same call.

What it costs where you are

A live one-to-one session is ₹899 at home or ₹799 at your gym; a 4-week plan of 12 is ₹8,080 or ₹7,070, about ₹673 or ₹589 a session, paid once with no subscription. Convert that to dirhams, Singapore dollars or pounds and it is usually well under a third of what a local trainer charges for an hour, for a coach who is on the call with you for the whole 45 minutes. How to compare monthly prices honestly is in our cost-per-month guide.
