Paus is for those who believe that whole-body wellbeing is so much more than a monthly gym membership
From morning coffees to mood-boosting movement classes and inspiring evening workshops, explore a vibrant, inclusive destination in Umm Suqeim dedicated to holistic wellbeing.
Amid the daily hustle of Dubai, do you just ever wish you could take a moment for yourself? To recharge. To reconnect. To press pause on our busy lives and even busier minds?
For those who believe that whole-body wellbeing is so much more than a monthly gym membership, Paus; Cafe + Community in Umm Suqeim 2 is redefining what it means to truly nurture ourselves.
Driven by a shared passion for holistic healing through food, mental wellbeing, self-care, movement, and spirituality, sisters Sophiya and Sarah Faizal launched Paus; in 2021. Situated on Al Wasl Road, the chic multistorey villa is a multitasking marvel.
Within the white-washed walls, you’ll find a vibrant community hub that combines a light-filled café with inspiring workshops, revitalising spa treatments, and classes spanning high-energy Hip Hop Yoga and restorative Candlelight Sound Healing.

Wellness wonders
For those who are tired of the same old cookie-cutter classes at your local gym, Paus; promises a breath of fresh air. Embedded in the power of movement medicine and mindfulness, classes at Paus; cover everything from mood-boosting yoga sessions to soothing stretches.
Embrace a gentle pace of wellbeing with Lofi Deep Stretch and Release, Soulful Gentle Flow, and Yin and Breathwork, for example.
For something more high-energy, opt for Pop Yogalates, Animal Flow, or an Afro-beats dance class. There are also dedicated classes for expectant and new mums, ladies-only sessions, and monthly get-togethers that tune into the rhythms of nature, with New Moon Cacao Ceremonies and Full Moon Sound Journeys.
Tailored treatments
Paus; also takes care of your body from the outside in, with an array of treatments designed to improve circulation, enhance meditation, and soothe weary muscles. Treat yourself to a calming facial using aloe vera and black oats, a detoxifying maderotherapy session to naturally sculpt the body, or a deep-tissue massage to ease aches and pains.
Inspiring events and workshops
Sarah and Sophiya believe in life-long learning and meaningful connections to drive complete wellbeing. To support your learning journey beyond the yoga mat, Paus; offers an inspiring calendar of events and workshops curated to keep your mind, body, and soul on track.
Upcoming highlights include a Silent Disco Night, DIY Deodorant Workshop, and Art Therapy, as well as regular Chai Chats and Matcha Mornings, each themed around a different psychology, self-care, or family topic.
Feel-good café
We all know, our wellbeing is only as good as what we put on our plate. At the Paus; Café, wholesome, nutritious dishes are the order of the day. “Guilt isn’t part of our repertoire,” says Sophiya. “Our menus of bountiful breakfasts, vibrant salads, satisfying sandwiches and wickedly good desserts are designed to fuel you for the day ahead – no cheat days required!”
