A unique wellness experience has arrived in the UAE, offering something completely new to the region: floating breathwork in the sea. Held at MGallery The Retreat Palm Dubai, this groundbreaking event combines the healing power of the ocean, conscious breath, and immersive rituals, offering participants a one-of-a-kind experience under the moonlight.

Curated in collaboration with Ashley Edelman, a breathwork and meditation guide from Immersiv Collective, the first session was held last week. The event marked the official launch of this innovative concept, and it’s already creating a buzz in the wellness community.

The session began with a welcoming ritual and somatic activation. Then, participants floated in the calm waters of the Arabian Gulf, breathing consciously to enhance emotional and physical release. To close, the experience culminated in a reflective herbal tea ceremony on the sand, providing a soothing end to the session.

The combination of breathwork and the healing powers of the ocean creates an emotional release and deep clarity, allowing participants to experience a profound return to themselves, especially while floating in the water.

 

This floating breathwork in the sea experience will be available every Sunday at MGallery The Retreat Palm Dubai, with the next session scheduled for August 17, 2025. Early interest has been strong, and future sessions are expected to sell out quickly.

In the meantime, if you’re looking for more wellness and fitness experiences, don’t miss the fitness events happening in Dubai this autumn. Whether you’re into bodywork, yoga, or intense training, the city has plenty to offer for those seeking to stay healthy and active.
