Private Ashtanga Classes in Dubai

Mysore-style Ashtanga with Nelli Kulikova — private sessions in Dubai and online, a shared pop-up room in Dubai, and a Thailand retreat you can enquire about.

Private sessions

Private sessions are ongoing one-to-one Mysore-style guidance for Primary and Intermediate. They are for students building a steady practice, whether you are laying foundations or refining the series you already know. The work is breath, posture, and pacing, suited to your body. If you are new to Ashtanga, private sessions are the place to start.

Sessions are in Dubai or online, by arrangement. The place for an in-person session is agreed when you book. There is no published price; it is shared on request. Send a message to find a suitable time.

The first steps are in the beginner's guide.

How online one-to-one sessions work is set out in online Ashtanga private sessions.

Dubai pop-up

The Dubai Mysore pop-up is a shared Mysore-style room for students who want a traditional Ashtanga rhythm. Primary and Intermediate practitioners are welcome. Pop-up rooms suit students with some Ashtanga foundation, or a willingness to learn patiently.

Dates are announced once the room is confirmed, and the venue is shared at the same time. Details go to the waitlist before anywhere else. Join the waitlist to hear first when dates open.

If you want to know how a shared Mysore room works before you go, read what to expect from Mysore-style Ashtanga in Dubai.

Dubai pop-up classes are from AED 100 per class and from AED 900 / month (incl. VAT). These from-prices are for the Dubai pop-up, whether you drop in for a single class or practise across the month. The final price is confirmed at booking.

Thailand retreat

The Thailand retreat is a quiet, practice-led stay. Days are built around Mysore-style Ashtanga, with space to rest and integrate. Primary and Intermediate students are welcome. Exact dates, venue, and pricing are shared with the waitlist first.

Classes are taught by Nelli Kulikova in Mysore-style and led classes.

Practice already runs in Dubai: pop-up classes, private sessions in Dubai and online by arrangement, and Mysore-style work in the Primary and Intermediate series.

How to ask for a session

Use the booking form and choose the interest that matches the format. For a one-to-one session in Dubai or online, choose Private. Say which you want, your experience, and any injury, pregnancy or medical condition. The place for an in-person session is agreed when you book, and the price is shared on request. For the shared room, choose Pop-up. That joins the waitlist. For the Thailand retreat, choose Retreat. Exact dates, venue and pricing for the retreat go to that waitlist first. The form asks for your name, email, city and a message. Phone is optional. Send opens FormSubmit’s captcha, and the request goes to book@ashtangayoga.ae. There is no login. Sending the form is a request. If FormSubmit accepts the form, you return to the booking page. That acceptance is not a confirmed class, and it is not the same as the message reaching an inbox. The details are arranged only after a later confirmation. If the form cannot send, write to book@ or send a message on Instagram. The same form is on the shala page.
