Not only did many women join the community, but the core team at Indian Women Dubai also organised various free zumba, meditation, and other sessions for women during the pandemic. It facilitated connections among women, particularly those newly relocated to Dubai. I also made the decision to leave my full-time job during Covid to lead the Indian Women Dubai group full-time, and I am glad I took that step.” The community’s growth was fuelled by word of mouth, attracting more women to join.
