Because this Christmas, we didn’t give Santa another box… 🎁
we gave her something she truly needed 💚
After carrying joy (and heavy gift bags!) all day,
Santa’s shoulders needed a little care.
So the elves stepped in 🧝♀️
✨ gentle stretches
✨ simple exercises
✨ mindful movement
Just a few minutes later —
lighter shoulders, a brighter smile,
and Santa was ready to get back to spreading cheer 🎅✨
Because even the giver deserves to feel good.
🎁 Gift wellness this festive season

Flowing through one of my favorite mini-sequences ✨
Starting with Cat and Cow, gently waking up my spine, connecting each movement to a slow, steady breath. Feeling every inhale open the chest… every exhale melt tension away.
From there, easing into a smooth transition, letting my body guide the flow — building warmth, grounding through my palms, and moving with intention.
Finally rising into Chair Pose, rooting through my feet and lifting my heart. A reminder that strength can also feel soft, and that balance begins with being present in the moment.
This flow is my way of reconnecting with myself — mind, body, and breath. 🌿💛
Ever wonder how changing seasons affect your body? 🍂❄️🌸☀️ From energy levels and mood to immunity and skin health, each season brings unique changes.
Autumn is here! 🍂 Ever wonder how this cozy season affects your body? From dips in energy and mood changes to dry skin and shifting immunity, your body responds to the cooler, shorter days in unique ways. In this reel, I’m sharing the surprising changes you might feel this fall and simple tips to stay balanced and healthy
✨ Chakrasana (Wheel Pose) Progression for All Levels ✨
In this reel, I’m sharing 3 variations so you can choose the level that fits your body today:
🧡 Beginner:
For anyone who is new to backbends, has tight shoulders, or is still building core and glute strength.
Start with supported bridges or a gentle wheel with blocks to open the chest safely.
💛 Intermediate:
Great for practitioners who already have good shoulder mobility and can press up into wheel comfortably.
This variation helps deepen the arch and build strength and stability.
💚 Advanced:
For those who have strong backbend fundamentals, good wrist + shoulder flexibility, and control in the spine.
These variations include deeper lifts, walking the hands closer to the feet, or leg lifts.
Remember: Every level is valid. Listen to your body and progress at your own pace.
Acro yoga combines the precision of yoga, the strength of acrobatics, and the trust of partnership. In this reel, we demonstrate controlled lifts, smooth transitions, and balanced poses that highlight:
Strength & Flexibility: Core engagement, balance, and full-body coordination.
Mindful Connection: Each pose relies on communication, trust, and mutual support.
Flow & Technique: Seamless movements designed to enhance body awareness and alignment.
Perfect for practitioners looking to advance their skills, deepen their practice, or explore partner-based yoga safely and mindfully.
📌 Pro Tip: Start with foundational poses, communicate with your partner, and always prioritize alignment and safety.
If you want better sleep, better mood, and better health—step outside and soak in the morning sun. ☀️
Early sunlight signals your brain to reset your internal clock, balances hormones, supports immunity, reduces stress, and naturally boosts energy levels. It’s a tiny habit with a huge impact.
Let the sun be your first source of motivation, grounding, and positivity every morning. 🌞💛”
Start your day with mindful movement, steady breath, and a calm mind. Surya Namaskar is more than just a sequence—it's a full-body reset.
⠀
🌞 Benefits of Sun Salutation:
• Boosts energy and circulation
• Enhances flexibility and balance
• Strengthens core, legs, and shoulders
• Calms the mind & reduces stress
• Awakens the body with mindful breath
⠀
A few minutes of this flow can transform your entire day. 🌿🧘♀️

If you’re looking for grounding + energy, this is your sign to roll out your mat. 💛
When the whole world throws stones at you… stay calm, steady, unmoved.
That stillness you hold inside — that is the Niruddha state.
A mind so clear, it reflects reality without distortion.
Not philosophy… a practice. A skill.
And yes — you can train your mind to reach there.
🧘♀️✨ At Pratimoksha Yoga, Oud Metha, Dubai, we train your mind and body to reach this steady, undisturbed state through yogic techniques rooted in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras.
In today’s Part 3 of Patanjali’s Mind Management series, we dive into the Niruddha state — that powerful space where nothing outside can shake you.
Where your mind stays still… steady… and totally unbothered 💁♀️✨
If you’re ready to transform your mind, breath and body — we’re here to help you do it, safely and systematically.

If you are looking us up, then we are truly glad to have this opportunity to tell you a little about us. We are located on the second floor of a rather plain building in Oud Metha, Dubai, the nearest landmark being Lamcy Plaza.
We set up our studio 3 years ago and our raison d’etre was to try and roll out a style of Ashtanga Yoga teaching and instruction that is the closest to the original form of this age-old Indian discipline. Our programmes have been crafted to include all 8 branches that together make up Yoga. That is why our signature course is called Asana & Beyond. Because Asana, or the posture (like the one you see above), is just one branch of the science of Yoga and our attempt is to take you beyond the merely physical.
The ultimate goal of Ashtanga Yoga is a vision of equanimity and this can only be achieved step by step, passing through all 8 branches of the discipline.
Our courses are enriched through our study, knowledge and understanding of Ayurveda, Physiotherapy, Osteopathy and Pranic Healing. What we hope to help you achieve is a transformation from the inside-out.
Besides our Beyond courses, we have programmes for the youth, Yoga therapy sessions and possibly the only RYS200 & RYS500 certified Teacher’s Training Course (TTC) in Dubai.
Transforming one’s life starts with a small shift in mindset, and when many such small shifts happen, they lead to a new, healthier happier YOU.
