With summer on the way, the session offers all yoga lovers a chance to escape the heat and exercise with the beautiful backdrop of Downtown Dubai.

Imagine doing a tree pose or upward facing dog while having Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) and the rest of the Dubai skyline in your range of view.

Whether you’re an experienced yogi or just looking for something different, rooftop yoga is the perfect way to unwind from work or relieve stress.

The 90-minute class is mixed-level, so there will be something for everyone. You won’t be drenched in sweat, but you’ll get a workout to that will have you feeling fit and healthy.

Just bring a yoga mat, a water bottle and be prepared to get quality teaching from one of Urban Yoga Dubai’s expert teachers, who for this session, will be Brittany.

James Chandler, general manager of Talise Fitness at Jumeirah Emirates Towers, said: “Fitness has become such an important part of the Dubai lifestyle and people are always looking for something new.

“At Talise Fitness, we are focused on innovation and we want to offer some real value to the Dubai community, so the rooftop yoga was a natural evolution for us.

“Giving people access to some of the best yoga teachers in one of the most beautiful settings in Dubai is our way of encouraging more people to stay active.”

The session starts at 19:30 and runs until 21:00 on the mezzanine-level terrace of Emirates Towers.
