Throughout our 10-days and 11-nights together, you will enjoy exclusive, off-the-beaten path tours to discover the creative heartbeat of Morocco. This trip begins at Maison28, in the heart of the Marrakech medina, and then winds down south through ancient cultures and kasbahs, and culminates under the stars in the Sahara Desert.

During our trip, we will visit and learn from local artisans and stewards of Morocco’s famous craft culture. You will enjoy private tours, hands-on creative workshops and opportunities to learn and deeply connect with Moroccan culture.

We will be in Morocco during the holy month of Ramadan, which offers a unique and intimate opportunity to experience Moroccan Islamic traditions firsthand.

If you are a creative, curious, and adventurous traveler looking for a special and highly-curated experience, you are in the right place.

While this is not a yoga retreat, there will be mindfulness elements infused to nourish our bodies and souls as we explore and expand.

Immerse yourself in the natural surroundings of Central America and sink into the "Belize way of life." That is, go with the flow, catch the sun, soak, sip, and just BE.

Throughout this retreat, we offer yoga and meditation classes catered towards all levels with an emphasis for beginners to yoga.

Embark on a 5-day exploration of the cultures of Southern Morocco and the Sahara Desert. En route to the Sahara, we will travel along ancient caravan roads, visit historic kasbahs and palaces, and will learn about local artisans. The dramatic landscape transitions from mountains to gorges to oases and eventually to the desert. We will spend two nights under the stars at a luxury desert camp, riding camels, hiking up dunes, and resting in the vast open space. We will learn about traditional Bedouin (nomadic) cultures, have coffee as we watch the sunrise over the dunes, and have plenty of down time. On the way back, we will visit an Amazigh carpet stronghold (the perfect place to buy a carpet) and visit a saffron plantation. We will round out our trip by heading back through the mountains, where we will stop for lunch in a rose garden, and spend one last night in Marrakesh. The following morning, guests will be transported back to the airport to catch departing flights. Since the Sahara Desert is very remote, we have carefully curated this trip in order to break up the driving. This will allow us to see more of this fascinating region of Morocco while spending less time in the car each day. Expect to spend about 5 hours each day driving and expect a range of accommodations on the road (from desert camp to budget hotel to full-service hotel).

Spend 8 days and 7 nights in the stunning Ourika Valley. Our beautiful retreat center is 45 minutes south of Marrakech. Here, you will enjoy striking mountain views, expertly landscaped gardens, and a fully-equipped yoga studio. Throughout your stay, you will eat delicious homemade Moroccan food. Likewise, you will relax, renew, sip mint tea, and immerse yourself in the vibrancy and hospitality of Morocco. We will have 1-2 yoga sessions each day. Our morning sessions will include vinyasa yoga and short meditations. Our evening sessions will include yin and restorative yoga. While a basic level of yoga experience is very helpful, all sessions will be appropriate for everyone. Additionally, each day will feature curated cultural activities. Expect to meet a diverse range of real people while in Morocco. My yoga retreats emphasize meaningful cultural immersion & mindful travel. The practices of yoga & mindfulness provide the ground as we connect, discover, and expand. All of my yoga retreats give back to local charities that empower women and girls.

Senior DMV-based teachers, Catherine Marquette, founder of Move. Breathe. Be. of Washington, D.C., and Kat Buechel, founder of 321 OM Fitness Yoga of Alexandria, VA, have partnered together to create an in-person mentorship program for new and experienced teachers alike who are seeking inspiration, education and an overall sense of community.

What We’ll Cover

In this first mentorship weekend, we’ll review Surya Namaskar A, B and C with Virabhadrasana 3 (Warrior 3) as the “peak pose”. We’ll explore it Friday night in a 90-minute masterclass and spend Saturday morning breaking the class apart and rebuilding it during a 2-hour sequencing workshop. After a lunch break, we’ll come back together and spend time practice teaching, incorporating lessons learnt from the night before’s class and that morning’s review.

Mentees will have homework, writing their own 60-minute sequence due Monday morning. Catherine and Kat will meet with the group Tuesday night during a 90-minute Q&A session, providing individual feedback on each mentee’s sequence while sharing universal feedback with the collective whole.
