This 7-day immersion is designed for practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of the Ashtanga method or revisit and refine what they already know.
Whether you are seeking greater clarity in your practice or simply wanting to reconnect with the discipline you love, this week creates space to explore, reset, and grow.
It is well suited to both students and yoga teachers looking for more confidence, embodiment, and precision on the mat.
Each day opens with a traditional Ashtanga practice, followed by meditation, pranayama, and asana labs. Together, these sessions explore breath, alignment, transitions, and presence, with time for questions, inquiry, and integration.
Supporting both personal practice and teaching development, this immersion offers practical tools you can continue to draw on long after the week ends.
Training format
This 7-day immersion includes 30 hours of focused Ashtanga practice, meditation, pranayama, and asana labs for practitioners and yoga teachers.
Please note that this is not a Yoga Alliance certified program. A certificate of participation will be issued upon completion of the full 30-hour deep dive.
Level and accessibility
The training is open to all levels. Practices are adapted to individual needs, and Mysore-style allows each participant to work at their own pace. Personal guidance is offered throughout the week.
Location
The training is hosted at Bab Zouina, a traditional Moroccan villa in the Ourika Valley, just 30 km from Marrakesh. Set on a beautiful property surrounded by olive trees, the villa offers a peaceful sanctuary away from the rhythm of city life. Built with cut stone and natural mud bricks, it has preserved its authentic and serene atmosphere in harmony with the environment.
