Join us in the beautiful Atlas Mountains for a 6 day deep dive in to yoga. Immerse yourself into the physical and spiritual practice of yoga, whilst also experiencing the real Morocco first hand. We will meditate to ground ourselves daily, practice vinyasa yoga to move the body and practice breathing exercises (pranayama) to help us calm the mind and de-stress. Guided walks into the mountains will help us to re-connect with nature and experience local culture and delicious long meals will feed us with nourishment. With the intention that you will leave feeling revitalized, inspired and balanced.
Location
Join us for 5 nights at the beautiful boutique hotel Kasbah Angour. Situated at 1000m altitude the berber castle sits on top of a hill offering incredible views of the surrounding mountains. Just 35 minutes from Marrakech the location provides fresh mountain air and a very peaceful environment.
Yoga
The day will consist of two 90 minute yoga classes. Beginning the day with a dynamic vinyasa sequence and ending with a more playful, explorative/restorative yoga practice.
Alongside the physical practice, guests can experience pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation.
Ro teaches Quantum Yoga which is a system of personal practice and optimization that uses vinyasa flow and Ayurvedic assessment. As Quantum physics itself has proven, any activity done with greater awareness has a more powerful transformative effect.
By bringing your attention into the the body-mind, by the use of Ayurveda (Yoga’s “sister science” which recognizes your individual nature and helps find your true path on this earth), Ro’s classes leave you more harmonious, healthy, happy and in true balance with yourself and the now.
Each guest will be invited to find out their true nature or ‘Prakriti’ by doing an aryuvedic assessment at the beginning of the retreat. You will be encouraged to become more present and aware, thus allowing you to get the most out of your practice during the retreat and later during your yoga practice at home.
Food
Expect authentic morocco food with lots of veggie options. Breakfast, a buffet lunch and a 3 course dinner will be served daily.
Hiking
We will be exploring the stunning surrounding mountains by taking 2 half day walks with a mountain guide local to the area. As the Kasbah is in the foot-hills of the mountains, there is the possibility to choose walks where the amount of climbing is moderate rather than strenuous, suiting all abilities.
There will also be an option to take a full day hike!
