This weekend in Dubai, an extraordinary fitness experience awaits – a fusion of three beloved elements in life: Pilates, dogs, and Halloween. The Petshop Megastore is the proud host of a special “Pawlates” class on Saturday, October 28, running from 10 am to 11 am in Dubai. This isn’t your typical Pilates session; it’s a Halloween-themed event that invites you to indulge in Pilates alongside charming dogs.
Pawlates: A Spooky Pilates Experience With Furry Friends In Dubai
The Pawlates class is a collaborative effort with the Stray Dogs Center. To join, the class requires a fee of Dhs125, and a portion of the proceeds contributes to the Stray Dogs Center’s veterinary expenses. During this unique class, dogs available for adoption will freely wander around the mats. Participants are encouraged to pause their workouts to engage with these dogs and capture memorable moments.
Anticipate heartwarming moments between Pilates poses. This exceptional experience offers you the opportunity to exercise while basking in the company of endearing dogs. It’s a wonderful way to incorporate a workout into your routine while also making a positive impact on the community.
Adoption Day At The Stray Centre
While the specific regulations for the Pawlates class at the Petshop Megastore are not explicitly detailed, typical dog Pilates classes often permit owners to bring their own dogs. Nevertheless, it’s advisable to directly contact the event organizers to ascertain their specific regulations and guidelines. Moreover, it’s essential to ensure that your dog is healthy, well, and possesses basic obedience training before participating in such classes. Consult your veterinarian in advance to ascertain your dog’s suitability for this type of exercise.
Following the class, an adoption day will be held from 11 am to 1 pm, where you can register your interest in adopting or fostering a pup. Adoption days are a weekly occurrence, taking place every Saturday from 11 am to 1 pm, offering prospective dog parents the chance to meet their potential four-legged family members. Stray Dogs Center is a non-profit animal welfare organization that commenced its mission in 2013. The team is dedicated to rescuing abandoned dogs from various regions in the Emirates. In addition to rescue efforts, the charity plays a vital role in rehabilitating mistreated or ill dogs.
Woofstock Festival Is Back!
Dog owners will be delighted to learn that the eagerly anticipated event, Woofstock Dubai, has been officially scheduled for the upcoming month. This pet-centric festival is set to unfold from 8 am to 10 pm on both Saturday, November 18, and Sunday, November 19, along the pristine shores of Dubai Islands Beach.
Details regarding ticketing have not been disclosed as of yet, but it’s worth noting that proof of vaccination will be required for any canine companions accompanying you to the event.
Woofstock Dubai has generously shared event insights on its Instagram platform.
The Pawlates class provides a distinctive way to celebrate Halloween while contributing to a worthy cause. So why not break away from your regular exercise routine and try something new? You’ll experience an enjoyable Pilates session, share moments with charming dogs, and support a significant cause. Who knows? You might even find your new loyal companion.
