Vita Yoga at the Cove

There’s two things I LOVE… coconut water and outdoor yoga. So naturally when Vita Coco got in touch to see if I wanted to join their early Friday morning classes, I jumped at it! They had set up rows of Vita Coco yoga mats down at Dubai’s newest beach hotspot, Cove Beach, overlooking the gorgeous views of the Burj.

Sporting my bright new Vita Coco yoga leggings (how cool are they!?) from famed Aussie brand Dharma Bums, (found at Dubai yoga-store Yapparel) and a brand new pair of Havianas, I had all I needed for a morning on the beach 🙂

Taught by yoga superstar Abbey Bates (who’s a complete instagram celeb by the way), these Hatha flow classes are now my favourite way to wake up on the weekend!

Followed by a delicious breakfast on their wooden terrace, my Friday mornings for the last month have been completely #PoweredByCoconuts!

After-hours Yogalates

You won’t believe how far i’ve come here… whether it’s the extended backbend, keeping my hips square or even being able to balance on my arms in side crow, all whilst smiling and not grimacing through clenched teeth. I credit a lot of it to the patience and help from my instructors but, it’s also down to perseverance and not wanting to give up on a pose just because it’s hard.

The harder the pose, the more you need it
