Accommodation
They have the luxury of staying at two beautiful venues over our time together. The first is a haven of peace and quiet that will have you feeling relaxed as soon as you arrive.
Set in the tranquility of a Berber Village with a backdrop of the Atlas Mountains and the distant twinkle of the medina, meandering flower-lined paths lead through scented gardens and secret courtyards to exquisite A/C ensuite bedrooms, all beautifully furnished in the local style. The bedrooms are spacious and all have fireplaces, hairdryers, towels, toiletries, and dressing gowns. Our second venue is another slice of luxury, this time nestled in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains. Surrounded by secret gardens and breathtaking views of the mountains,
The hotel has two pools (one heated, one refreshing!), beautiful gardens, secret courtyards and rooftops, sunny balconies and more, so you can always find a peaceful spot to relax in. There is a large dining room with a big fireplace, and a large terrace overlooking the pool and the sunset, where you will eat most of your meals and often have a pre-dinner sunset drink by the fire, watching the sunset.
Program
Overview
Settle in and start the retreat with mint tea and a delicious dinner on Saturday. Your first few days are all about grounding and resting, with an adventure into the Atlas Mountains and included beautiful picnic. There is also a trip to the souks for shopping, mint teas on rooftops, and exploring the square.
There will usually be two yoga classes a day, including dynamic vinyasa in the morning, calming yin before dinner, and a couple of Restorative yoga Nidras (sleepy yoga!) before bed. This is dependent on the other activities you have - on some days, if there are trips, you might practice once. The yoga sessions are themed around the natural elements, bringing the qualities and strengths of nature into your practice and life.
All activities are optional but encouraged, so you can nap, read, or swim and explore - it’s completely up to you. The Wild Times is always a guilt-free, judgement-free zone - this is your time! Otherwise, have a massage, lounge around the pool, or have a small siesta.

Instructors
Jenny Clark
A 350-hour yoga teacher, Jenny has been teaching Vinyasa, Yin, Power, and yoga Nidra in person and online for corporates, privates, studio events, and retreats in the UK and Morocco. She is also a qualified BSUPTA paddleboard instructor and loves teaching SUP yoga. Her goal is to make yoga accessible and fun with a strong emphasis on doing whatever feels good in your body, as no one knows your body better than you do.
Retreat location
You begin with 3 nights at the much-loved retreat hotel, tucked away from the hubbub of Marrakech on the outskirts of a quiet Berber village. Meandering corridors and courtyard paths lead to authentic, comfortable rooms with fireplaces and en-suite bathrooms. You’ll practice yoga on the rooftop or in the light-filled studio twice a day, with time in between to float in the pools, wander the gardens, or relax in hidden sunny corners with a book. The on-site spa offers a range of massages, hammams, and treatments for deeper rest.
From there, you will travel to the foothills of the Atlas Mountains at the edge of the National Park for 2 nights at a peaceful new location, Kasbah Bab Ourika, overlooking the sweeping Ourika Valley. Here, you’ll find understated luxury - earthy textiles, vintage furniture, and natural materials crafted by local hands. Yoga will continue daily, and our meals - fresh, nourishing, and seasonal - are prepared by the Kasbah Kitchen team using produce from the organic gardens and valley.
Food
Breakfast includes delicious home-made juices, honey, yoghurts, pancakes, cheeses, locally made breads, fresh fruit salad, and cereals will be served after the morning yoga class. Omelets and eggs are available as an added extra.
Then you'll have a healthy and generous salad buffet lunch with around 10 delicious salads to choose from, with bread and fruit available too. Evening meals will be traditional North African dishes created by the resident chef and his team, with vegetarian or vegan options available on request.
