Drift schools in the UAE
Learning to drift in the UAE happens on closed circuits, with an instructor beside you and no traffic coming the other way. Emirates Motorplex hosts Prodrift Academy UAE, Dubai Autodrome runs its own Drift DXB programme, and Yas Marina holds the sanctioned Emirates Drift Championship rounds.
