Dhruv Mehta

Dhruv Mehta is on a mission to get more men on the mat in Dubai. The former investment banker turned yoga teacher brings a no-nonsense, results-focused approach to his Ashtanga classes that resonates with DIFC's professional crowd. He practiced yoga for three years before leaving finance, and the transformation prompted him to retrain as a full-time teacher.

Dhruv's classes are challenging, precise, and stripped of any new-age aesthetic that might put off sceptical male clients. He frames yoga as the highest-ROI mobility and recovery tool available — because to him, it genuinely is. His corporate clients often comment that his classes are harder than their gym sessions.

He teaches private sessions in DIFC corporate offices, hotel gyms, and clients' residences across Downtown Dubai and Business Bay. His early morning Ashtanga sessions at 6am attract dedicated practitioners who are on the mat before the city wakes up.
