A balance of chill out and adventure

A retreat designed to support small and local businesses that will provide an immersion into the culture and magic of Marrakech. Stay in a traditional riad on the edge of the markets, practice yoga in the courtyard or on the sun terrace, explore and experience the reknowned Moroccan hospitality.

Fully booked - waitlist available

Venue:
We will be staying in a traditional riad (terraced house built around a courtyard, with an open roof), in the heart of Marrakech. We can practice yoga in the airy courtyard or the sunny terrace. Dipping pool to cool off. Access to shared kitchen. Plenty of chill out and lounging areas. Quiet street, but very close to the hustle and bustle of the souks.

Accommodation:
Double and twin bedrooms, each with a private bathroom and gorgeous traditional architecture and furnishings. It maybe possible to make a triple room, if you let me know. Towels and linens provided. Staff of the riad will visit to do some cleaning and make meals when we need, but we have exclusive use of the house.

Yoga:

Morning and afternoon/evening, unless we are out adventuring. We will mix some vinyasa, yin, slow flow asana practices, with some meditation and pranayama. Expect to feel a difference with practicing every day and the benefits of having a small group (max 6 students).

Please bring your own mat, we can use cushions in the house.

Included:

Airport transfers, if you are arriving at similar/same time as the main group.
