Yoga retreat with Uday at Bab Zouina

Yoga retreat with Uday is a residential yoga retreat at Bab Zouina, a retreat venue on the Route de l'Ourika in the Marrakesh-Safi region of Morocco. It is for people who want to practise yoga with a teacher away from home, in a setting where the whole stay is arranged around the practice. Uday leads the retreat, which is one of the yoga retreats Bab Zouina hosts through the year.

What to Expect

Bab Zouina describes yoga as the heart of the place. Each retreat is designed individually around its teacher, so this one is shaped by Uday's teaching. The stay includes teaching and workshops, and some retreats at Bab Zouina add excursions or other activities alongside the practice.

Bab Zouina works with qualified teachers across many traditions, among them Ashtanga, Flow, Hatha, Iyengar, Jivamukti, Kundalini, Sivananda and Yin. That range reflects the venue's long commitment to yoga, and it gives the retreat a setting with real experience in hosting groups who have come to practise together.

The Place

Bab Zouina sits on the Route de l'Ourika, in the Marrakesh-Safi region of Morocco. Retreats run here throughout the entire year, and the venue also hosts teacher training courses, generally following the Yoga Alliance framework. Guests stay on site, with accommodation and meals part of the retreat, so there is little to organise once you arrive. Teachers and groups choose Bab Zouina as a venue for its surroundings, and it welcomes retreat leaders who want to host their own gatherings there.
