They say movement is medicine, but it comes in many forms, and we're all built differently. What works for one body might not work for another. Some of us need intensity, others find everything they need in a quiet flow. And for many, yoga is where it all comes together – a way to stretch, slow down, reset, and breathe through whatever the week throws at you.
Here are some of the best yoga classes in Dubai to check out this summer. Shimis
Tucked inside Alserkal Avenue, Shimis is a light-filled studio known for its calming atmosphere and modern take on practice. The space offers Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin and private sessions – suited to anyone looking to stretch, reset, or just move with more intention. It's not just about poses here. Shimis makes space for focus and breath, with a schedule that works whether you're easing in or going all in.
