Aqua Yoga & Detox Reterat
An immersive day of water, breath, movement & stillness
Date
Sunday, April 12
Dubai moves at an extraordinary pace. Between the demands of corporate life, city energy, and constant connectivity, the body and mind accumulate tension — quietly, relentlessly. This retreat exists to reverse that. One Saturday. One rooftop. One unforgettable reset.
Where the Dubai skyline meets the stillness of water
Step away from the city for a day, without ever leaving it. Against the backdrop of Sheikh Zayed Road, you will move, breathe, float, and deeply restore — guided by one of the UAE’s most respected yoga teachers.
Hosted at the iconic Shangri-La Hotel’s pool deck, this full-day wellness experience blends ancient yogic science with the unique healing properties of water. You’ll leave lighter — in body, mind, and energy — than when you arrived.
The Day's Journey
A curated sequence of restoration estoration
Led by a master of the tradition
SUMIT MANAV
Lifestyle Yoga Founder & Lead Instructor
Teaching yoga is not what Sumit does. It is who he is.
Having devoted over two and a half decades to the study and transmission of Classical Yoga, Sumit Manav brings something rare to the practice: the complete picture. He has trained at the source — Haridwar, the heartland of the Himalayan tradition — and studied under one of the most influential yogis of the twentieth century, BKS Iyengar. His approach is rooted in ancient wisdom, informed by science, and delivered with warmth that transforms a class into a community.
As the Foudner of Lifestyel Yoga located in Shangri-La Hotel Dubai, Sumit has guided students ranging from beginners finding their first breath to senior corporate leaders managing pressure at the highest levels. His corporate wellness clients include Emirates, PepsiCo, Fairmont, Kellogg’s, and Emaar — organisations that trust him with the wellbeing of their most valuable asset: their people.
On April 12th, he brings the full depth of this lineage to the Shangri-La pool deck — for you.
Shivanshi
Yoga Instructor · Lifestyle Yoga World · Leading: Sound Healing & Chakra Meditation
Shivanshi is a certified Sound Healing practitioner and yoga instructor whose gift lies in creating stillness — the kind that reaches places movement alone cannot. In this retreat, she leads the sound healing element of the Chakra Meditation session, using singing bowls and therapeutic frequencies to balance the nervous system, dissolve deep-held tension, and open each energy centre from the inside out.
Trained in Yogic Science (BSc), 200-hour YTT, and mentored by Sumit Manav, Shivanshi brings both technical precision and an intuitive sensitivity to her work. Her sessions are described by students as the deepest rest they have ever experienced.
One day that pays dividends for weeks
