Dubai: We’ve seen mothers and daughters bonding over cooking, cleaning up, even shopping sprees and vacations. But yoga?
Well, far-fetched as it may sound, a health club in Dubai is conducting special mother and daughter yoga sessions in keeping with the spirit of Mother’s Day on May 14.
The Body Language Health Club in Al Barari will conduct the sessions on May 13, 27 and June 10. While the activities will vary with each session, they will involve individual warm-ups, partner Yoga practices, breath work and other practical tips to practice at home.
The club’s ‘Yogi’ Carla Julian will lead the sessions, taking participants through Yoga asanas, Pranayama (breathing exercises) and strengthening and coordination sequences in what she calls will be “a mindful approach”.
“Each pose can be modified for varying levels of flexibility and strength,” she said.
And pray, how will they help mothers and daughters bond better? “Mom and daughter Yoga sessions are designed to foster mutual respect, positive communication and trust between moms (or any adult female role model) and daughters as we learn Yoga techniques and have a ton of fun,” she said.
The Yoga sessions will be held from 11.30am to 12.30pm. The cost is Dh50 per person.
