As-salam alaykum – Peace be upon you
I have been visiting Doha, in the State of Qatar, for five days on a business trip. During this window of opportunity I was grateful to align spare time and scheduled yoga classes so that I could attend a yoga class at Yama Yoga Studios.
On Wednesday 3 April I attended a “heart opening” vinyasa class lead by Sama Davidson. Sama introduced herself to me before the class and advised that I, and one other student only would be taking the class.
The temperature in the studio was around 30 deg C. This was due to the warm weather in Doha, ie not because the room was artificially heated. I am not accustomed to practising in warmer temperatures and began to feel nauseous and light headed part way through the class. These feelings quickly subsided by sitting back in Balasana. I was shortly able to continue with the remainder of the class with no further issues.
Sama provided subtle adjustments during the practice. And, I was most grateful to Sama for headstand and wheel assistance, and advice.
It was not necessary to book a place for the class. Mats and props were supplied, along with a hand towel. The cost was QR60 – around A$20.

Lovely to meet, and take asana practise with Sama
