Now in its eighth year, Yogafest Dubai has become the go-to place for authentic community yoga, wellness and health classes, and always for a good cause.
Founder Elaine Kelly says, “We are thrilled to be launching our brand in the garden city of Al Ain next to the beautiful Al Jahili fort.”
Wendy from Love Yoga UAE (based in Al Ain) says, “We are excited to partner with Yogafest to bring this community-based charity-focused event to Al Ain. Al Ain gets to open its welcoming doors to some amazing teachers from right across the region while supporting the talent of our local teachers and the ever-growing enthusiastic local yoga community.”
Yogafest Middle East raises funds through donations for charities that improve the lives of children. To date, the festival has raised AED 325,000 for charities such as Al Jalila Foundation, Dubai Cares, Palestine Children’s Relief Foundation and Smiletrain amongst others.
The festival will be bringing the most popular Yoga Circle along with three other tents, Learning and Meditation tent, Shakti tent and Family tent to Al Ain.
No festival would be complete without a healthy dose of ethical retail therapy. As an eco-conscious festival, the Marketplace will showcase sustainable fashion and products that are good for everyone and the planet as well as a Nourish zone with healthy vegetarian options for refueling.
Attendees are required to register online to confirm their attendance here. The one and a half day ticket allows access to any class, spaces are on a first come, first served basis. Guests are encouraged to bring their own yoga mats (or rent at the festival) and re-fillable water bottles.
