7 days in a luxury hotel in the quietness of a Berber village
26th September - 3rd October 2026
I co-lead this yoga holiday with Jim Tarran at the wonderful Tigmi Hotel, 30 minutes outside of Marrakech in a quiet Berber village. We have both been to Tigmi many times and it is one of our absolute favourite yoga holiday destinations - it's stunningly beautiful, great food and staffed by really lovely people who are super helpful at providing you with the most relaxing holiday.
You have the best of all worlds - a true retreat in a Berber village with just the local village goat herders walking through so you can really enjoy some peace and quiet. Or if you want to experience the hustle and bustle of Marrakech it is just a 30 minute car ride away! There is also the option to take a trip into the foothills of the Atlas Mountains which is really special. The image above is the view of the mountains taken from the back of our rooftop yoga platform!
What the holiday includes:
Twice daily yoga sessions with Khadine and Jim comprising mostly asana but with additional meditation, pranayama and yoganidrā practices. Session are usually around 8-9.30am and 5-6.30pm - we adapt our timings depending on the time of year and the intensity of the sun but you will have 3 hours of practice a day. There will be one day off mid-week for excursions or just lounging by the pool!
Accommodation in beautiful traditional Moroccan style ensuite bedrooms or suites. The rooms and bathrooms are very generously proportioned
All food including:
early morning tea/coffee
full buffet breakfast (eggs incur an extra fee - they are cooked by a woman from the local village)
a delicious buffet of a wide variety of salads for lunch and a three courses Moroccan dinner
coffee or tea at meal times and bottled water all day long.
(special diets can be catered for with notice)
Alcohol is available for an extra fee, as are extra drinks and snacks (not that you'll need snacks, as the meals are extremely generous!).
Full use of hotel facilities which includes two stunning pools, lots of little quiet lounging areas with day beds, 2 dining areas, Wi-Fi and small garden courtyard areas - it's honestly so beautiful!
Please note there is an extra charge for transfers from the airport/station/Marrakech - this is usually around £20 and is added to your hotel bill of an extras you may have purchased outside of the above inclusions.
Optional extras:
There is an onsite hammam as part of the hotel - definitely worth a visit for a scrub and soak and massage and other beauty/relaxation treatment.
Excursions to the Atlas mountains and local villages - bookable while you are there.
Visits into Marrakech to visit the souk or Yves St Laurent gardens or museums (you'll probably want to pop in more than once - people love it!).
