Never tried yoga before? Don’t worry as it’s suitable for everyone to join, from the advanced to those who just want to give it a go. All you need to bring is yourself and your mat (if you don’t have one you can purchase one at the gate for Dhs25).

There will be over 100 yoga classes during the three-day festival, which include Vinyasa flow, Hatha yoga, Laughter yoga, Yin yoga, Sivanda, Ashtanga vinyasa, hot yoga, Jivamukti as well as loads of workshops on meditation, happiness and dealing with stress.

Each of the seven tents will have a theme: yoga, movement, family, learning, meditation and Shakti, alongside a ‘nourish zone’ filled with super-healthy options. You’ll also be able stock up on some new yoga bits from one of the many stalls there – you’ll find everything from homemade aromatherapy sprays to yoga leggings made from recycled plastic.

Here’s to finding that happy balance…
