More than 300 people joined Rio and Kate Ferdinand at Dubai Hills Mall on Sunday, June 7, for the latest edition of One Body Co. Together.
Rio Ferdinand, the former Manchester United and England defender, has been a regular presence in Dubai since moving to the emirate with his family. He was joined by Kate Ferdinand, who founded One Body Co. as a wellness platform focused on movement, recovery and connection.
“Consistent movement is the most powerful tool we have to reclaim our balance.”
The session brought together people of different ages and fitness levels for an early morning run and workout inside the mall.
Kate Ferdinand said the turnout showed why community fitness events still matter.
“Today’s incredible turnout proves how much people need to disconnect from the frantic pace of modern life,” she said.
Rio Ferdinand said the session showed the value of simple, regular movement, especially for people dealing with busy working lives.
“We live in an era dominated by sedentary routines and high-pressure environments that drain our energy,” he said.
“Seeing so many people show up at dawn to prioritise their health confirms our mission: consistent movement is the most powerful tool we have to reclaim our balance.”
The organisers said another large community session is planned, as One Body Co. Together looks to continue building its presence in Dubai.
