About this event
"'Magical Morocco'
​Anusara® Yoga Retreat
​
Marrakesh, Morocco
19th - 26th October, 2025
The exact meaning of the name Marrakesh has been debated widely! However, one highly possible origin of the name is from the Berber word 'akush' which means ""Land of God"" ... how beautiful is that? And so appropriate for a spiritual yoga retreat such as this one.
Attending a yoga retreat with me will allow you to draw even more richness from your yoga practice - both physical and spiritual. Extended time with me as your dedicated teacher gives you the space to really get curious and improve is all aspects of yoga, without distraction and away from your routine. Picture yourself rolling out your mat in a beautiful outdoor practice space, relaxing around the pool in a resort in magical Morocco ... eat well, sleep deeply, rest and explore and deepen your yoga practice. All of this in the great company of like-minded souls. Honestly ... it really is nothing short of magical!
A yoga retreat magnifies the fabulous benefits of your regular weekly practice tenfold! Think of the fabulous feelings that come after an hours practice ... the clarity of mind it brings, the bodily ease and the renewed spring to your step, the savasana bliss-out ... then multiply that by seven days away and the results are truly powerful!
Yoga retreats pause time. Allowing space for you to reflect and ponder, to journal, to stretch and move, to laugh with like minded people, to hide away a while, to eat well, to sleep deeply and to step outside of the daily churn. On retreat you can simply be you ... ditch the labels (leave behind your role, your job title, your family position, the labels you give yourself) and start listening to your heart space.
I have been travelling to Morocco for a few years now very regularly, as my hubby is working there. We have explored the country together in quite some depth, and whilst there are many fascinating sites ands sounds across the whole country ... Marrakesh really does have it all! Our retreat space is calm and tranquil, yet a short taxi ride away you have the vibrant, craziness of the souks and restaurants of the old walled city. A fascinating and inspiring place for sure!
The luxury of being in a beautiful yoga shala, in a space that oozes calm will help you focus inward and gives offers you an increased capacity to indulge in what you love. Having me on hand for the entire week will give you the confidence to play a little more with poses, get curious about technique, discuss the nuances, and develop all aspects of your personal yoga practice. I see students on retreat evolve and refine their yoga in all ways. Bodies begin to open up, emotions settle and spirits life as the week progresses and there is always a little transformative sparkle in the eyes at the end of the week. "
