Yoga, Connection & Adventure retreat

This yoga retreat at Bab Zouina, on the Route de l'Ourika in Morocco, brings yoga, connection and adventure together over a week led by Danielle Goldfarb, Marisa and David Johnson. It suits anyone who wants a week of yoga in a retreat setting, with the company of a small group and the chance to go beyond the mat.

Yoga is the heart of Bab Zouina. The venue hosts retreats throughout the year, each one designed around its teacher, and works with qualified teachers across many styles, including Ashtanga, Flow, Hatha, Iyengar, Jivamukti, Kundalini, Sivananda and Yin.

What to Expect

The retreat is titled Yoga, Connection & Adventure, and runs for about a week. Teaching and workshops are part of the stay, and, as with certain retreats at Bab Zouina, the programme may include excursions or activities beyond the yoga itself. The title points to the shape of the week: time on the mat, time with the other guests, and time out exploring.

Bab Zouina retreats are each built by the teachers who lead them, so the daily rhythm and the particular style of practice belong to Danielle Goldfarb, Marisa and David Johnson. Guests who want the fine detail of the week can find it in the retreat brochure.

The Setting

Bab Zouina is a retreat venue on the Route de l'Ourika in Morocco, and it describes itself as a breathtaking place to host yoga. Retreats here are residential: accommodation and meals are part of the stay, so there is little to organise once you arrive.

Airport transfer is also included in the price, which makes the arrival simple.

Before You Go

The price of a Bab Zouina yoga retreat includes:

- airport transfer
- teaching and workshops
- accommodation
- meals

Depending on the retreat, guests can book directly with the teacher or with Bab Zouina. Some retreats include additional excursions or activities, so it is worth checking the brochure for this one to see what the adventure side of the week involves.

Bab Zouina also works with qualified teachers on Teacher Training courses, generally following the Yoga Alliance framework, and welcomes teachers who would like to host their own retreat at the venue. This particular week, however, is a yoga retreat for guests who want to practise, connect and explore in Morocco.
