Step into an extraordinary journey through Morocco, where ancient traditions, breathtaking landscapes, and meaningful connections await. This is more than a retreat; it’s an opportunity to slow down, stretch deeper, and immerse yourself in a culture rich with history and hospitality.
Led by our Remarkable Transformer, Jordan Ashley and yoga teacher and Reiki practitioner Joanne Silver, this retreat blends yoga, adventure, and cultural immersion. From the vibrant energy of Marrakech’s medina to the peaceful stillness of the High Atlas Mountains, every experience is designed to nourish the body, mind, and soul. Carefully chosen accommodations reflect the beauty and authenticity of Morocco, from the tranquil countryside oasis of La Ferme El Dar to the breathtaking mountain retreat of Ksar Shama.
Beyond the mat, this retreat offers a rare opportunity to see Morocco through the eyes of its people. Wander through Marrakech’s labyrinthine souks, guided by the scents of spices and the hum of local artisans. Rise before dawn to float over the Atlas Mountains in a hot air balloon, watching the first light touch the peaks. Walk through the enchanting Jardin Majorelle, a lush sanctuary once home to Yves Saint Laurent. Meet the animals of a peaceful rescue farm, including Kai, the marathon-running pygmy goat, alongside her many companions.
Deeper connections unfold in the mountains, where the rhythms of daily life offer quiet lessons in presence. With a private driver and a local guide, travel through the dramatic landscapes of the Atlas Mountains, visiting remote villages where traditions are passed down through generations. Meet Youssra, the first woman from her village to graduate high school, and share tea with her family before continuing into the Azzaden Valley, where the scent of freshly baked tannourt, traditional Amazigh bread, fills the air.
This retreat is as much about giving back as it is about exploration. A visit to Association Amal, an organisation dedicated to empowering women through vocational training, offers the chance to support their work firsthand. Join a hands-on baking class while learning about the lives transformed through this initiative, where every skill learned paves the way for independence and opportunity.
This is travel with purpose—rooted in ethical experiences, deep connections, and a sense of wonder. It’s a journey to move, breathe, and be present in a land that invites transformation at every turn.
