  • Reaching out: Kundalini combines a number of sets

    The benefits of yoga appear endless, so it’s no surprise you can even overcome deep-rooted fears through the ancient discipline and a special Kundalini yoga workshop in Dubai will help you do just that.

    Beginning tomorrow, the workshop will run for eight weeks every Sunday at Sonata Art Center, Jumeirah Lakes Towers and will be taught by leading Kundalini yoga instructor Nizar Saab.

    Few are more knowledgeable about Kundalini yoga than Saab, who has been practicing over the last 30 years and is also the founder of the Awakening Meditation technique to reduce stress and anxiety in just minutes per day.

    In the Kundalini yoga sessions, Saab will introduce participants to the practice, along with the chakra (energy centers) system, yoga sets, mudras (hand positions), bandhas (body locks to facilitate energy flow), breathing exercises and meditation.

    By stimulating specific energy centers in the body, people can find their inner strength and bring it out to conquer fear, which can prevent you from taking action in daily life.

    Inner peace: The classes take place at Sonata Art Centre, JLT.
