Go Deeper - Morocco Yoga Retreat
Last summer we held a small yoga retreat long weekend in Marrakech and I was so moved by the amazing group and good times we had that I've decided we should head back in August! Morocco has fabulous food, beautiful weather, and the city offers so much to do in addition to the option to stick by the riad and lounge by the pool. Space is extremely limited, so if you're thinking about joining, secure your spot now!
Morocco Yoga Retreat Details: Go Deeper Yoga Retreat August 17 - 21, 2016
This retreat is about deepening your yoga practice. To do that, we'll begin each day in silence. After class, silence will end and conversation will begin! The comprehensive yoga program will be designed around varying themes with the aim to build upon what you already know and practice, and our hope is that you will leave feeling relaxed yet inspired, with new perspective and, of course, new friends.
The Venue, Accommodations and Things to Do
We'll stay in a gorgeous traditional Moroccan riad located in the medina that features a massive rooftop for sunbathing, and a beautiful inner courtyard for relaxing by the lovely pool.
Each room has its own en suite bathroom, and a double bed (unless you are booking the one room that has two twins).
We'll practice yoga outside for an incredible unique, transformative experience.
Aside from yoga and lounging by the pool, there will be a number of additional activities available to you including a tours, exploring the souk, and more. Our staff at the riad will have all the information and I'll be happy to rearrange our yoga schedule to ensure everyone has ample time to do what they want to do during the day and still make it back in time for our yoga class.
