Program
What awaits you
Step away from the everyday hustle. No emails, no deadlines, no responsibilities - just you and a vibrant community in a Moroccan retreat designed for movement, connection, and renewal.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll find your people - all here to dance, unwind, and recharge. Mornings start with gentle yoga to ease into the day, followed by belly dance sessions led by expert instructors from France and Syria / Australia. Whether you're new to dance or have years of experience, you’ll feel right at home.
After class, take your pick - relax in a gorgeous hammam followed by a massage, wander through the lively (and famous) Souk El Had, or ride along the beach on horseback or camel.
Evenings bring live cultural Gnawa music, intimate performances, a traditional Chaabi workshop and plenty of chances to dance and celebrate together. And to top it all off, a final gala night invites you to take the stage, share your energy, and soak in the joy of the moment.
This isn’t just a retreat - it’s an experience to move, connect, and rediscover joy in community. Ready to dance your heart out in Morocco?
