Location and Accommodation

A 450 year-old riad, is your city oasis on this three night retreat. Marrakesh has a unique energy, with lights, colors, sound, and scents begging for your attention. The location of our riad is perfectly nestled in Jennison’s favorite part of the city, alongside some of the best shops, restaurants, rooftops and cultural experiences. 

Once you have explored to your heart’s desire, head back to the oasis of the riad to read in the plant-filled courtyard, or dip your legs in the pool. Lay in the sun on the rooftop as you sip mint tea and reminice on your day.

Three nights in the vibrant city, with a city tour of the medina and shops, and a traditional hammam bathhouse experience. You will also have the option to explore some restaurants on your own, sign up for a cooking class, or book yourself a berber massage. 

OPTIONAL ADD-ONS:

Book an extra night for “Day 0” in Marrakesh to integrate before the retreat begins. Or add-on a night glamping with our retreat group, in the desert! (Minimum 4 participants).

Your yoga session while on retreat are a light-hearted, spirit nourishing experience. All levels of yoga practitioners are welcome to join us. Jennison will provide modifications and variations for all participants to make the most of their movement experience. Typically, we enjoy an energizing vinyasa practice in the morning (never too early!), and nourishing yin yoga in the evenings.

During this retreat, we will be “Celebrating the Self” through journaling, meditation and movement. You will explore your values, honor your strengths, and own your greatness. It will be a journey of coming home to yourself, stepping into your power as you move through doubt and insecurity and begin to embrace and CELEBRATE how incredible you are. Your journey is unique and it is to be honored.
