Women Who Thrive Breathwork with Sara 2026

Women Who Thrive Breathwork with Sara is a guided, women-only breathwork session in Dubai on Sunday 22 November 2026, from 5pm to 7pm at Johny Dar Experience. Led by Sara from Home To Breath, it is the community’s mental wellbeing session for November: two hours set aside to slow down, step away from the week’s to-do list and reconnect with yourself.

Sara and Home To Breath

Sara guides the session for Home To Breath, and the evening is built around her breathing techniques rather than around movement or exercise. Her focus is on calming the nervous system and releasing stress that has built up in the body, using structured patterns of breath that the group follows together. It is a facilitated experience, so you do not need to know any techniques beforehand: Sara talks the room through each stage.

How the two hours unfold

Unlike a fitness class, most of the session is spent seated or lying down. A two-hour slot gives time to settle in, learn the breathing patterns, go through a longer guided practice and come back gently at the end, rather than squeezing it into a lunch break. Expect a quiet, reflective atmosphere, and allow yourself time afterwards before rushing on to evening plans. Finishing at 7pm leaves the rest of the Sunday evening free and unhurried.

• no previous breathwork or meditation experience is needed
• wear something loose and comfortable you can lie down in
• if you are pregnant or have a medical condition, tell the organisers before the session

A wellbeing pause in a busy month

Women Who Thrive runs its programme in pillars, and this breathwork evening sits under the self-care and mental wellbeing side of the calendar rather than Women Who Train, the fitness strand. In November, the fitness sessions have ranged from aerial silks and step dancing to reformer Pilates and a trampoline class, so a quiet two hours of breathing offers a deliberate change of pace.

It also lands on a full day for the community. The same Sunday morning, from 11am to 1pm, Women Who Train hosts Fuel Your Workouts, a nutrition talk with nutritionist Toni at Grazer. Members who want a complete Sunday of looking after themselves can attend the nutrition session in the morning and the breathwork in the late afternoon.

The community behind the evening

Women Who Thrive was founded in Dubai by Sue and Achasah and has been running for around five years. It began from the idea that life in Dubai can feel lonely, and it now gathers women from all walks of life to share stories, support one another and grow personally and professionally. Time Out Dubai and Savoir Flair have both featured the community, and it was named on the Ahlan Hot 100 in 2026.

That background shapes this event. A group breathwork session is as much about sharing a calm space with other women as it is about the technique itself, and it can be an easy, low-pressure first event for newer members.

Who it suits

• women feeling stretched by work, family or a recent move to Dubai
• anyone curious about breathwork who wants a guided introduction
• members who prefer reflective sessions to high-energy workouts
• regular meditators looking for a different, breath-led practice
