Dear Nilaya House friends,

We celebrate our one-year anniversary this month. We moved Ashtanga Yoga Dubai
to Nilaya House exactly one year ago and since then the shala has grown to incorporate
regular classes in Iyengar, Yin, Restorative, Kids and Prenatal Yoga, Meditation, Sound Healing and Tai Chi. More good things to come in our second year, starting this month
with three international visiting teachers running workshops and trainings in February.
Read on for details.

A huge thank you to everyone who has been part of Nilaya House over the last year. Especially all the teachers who bring their energy and expertise into every class making Nilaya House a wonderful place to start or deepen your yoga journey.

Yours in Yoga,

Nea

RECOMMENDED READING


“Yoga is a natural process, but you have to understand how yoga happens. If you follow
a certain mindset and discipline, devotion, dedication, then changes will happen.
The transformation becomes spiritual, your mind and everything goes toward divinity.
You start looking at yourself. You go on a self-realization quest and avoid certain things that disturb your mind and don’t allow you to grow spiritually. If you have a desire to learn about spirituality, then you adopt a method and the experience flows naturally. For that, you need
a method. No one can force it on you or force you to do it.” R. Sharath Jois.
