Morocco yoga holiday

Spend seven days at a luxury hotel in the peaceful setting of a Berber village, where comfort, calm, and mountain views create the ideal backdrop for a restorative escape.

4th September - 11th September 2027

This yoga holiday is co-led by Khadine and Jim Tarran at the beautiful Tigmi Hotel, around 30 minutes outside Marrakech. Both teachers know the venue well and return often, drawn back by its exceptional setting, warm hospitality, delicious food, and the genuinely helpful team who make it easy to unwind from the moment you arrive.

The location offers a rare balance: a true retreat atmosphere in a quiet Berber village, with only the occasional local goat herder passing by, while Marrakech remains close enough for those who want to explore its energy. You can also choose to visit the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, a special experience with views that can be admired from the rooftop yoga platform.

What the holiday includes:

Twice-daily yoga sessions with Khadine and Jim, featuring mostly asana alongside meditation, pranayama, and yoganidrā. Sessions usually take place from 8.00-9.30am and 5.00-6.30pm, though timings may vary depending on the season and the strength of the sun. In total, you will enjoy around three hours of practice each day, with one day off mid-week for excursions or time by the pool.

Accommodation in spacious traditional Moroccan ensuite bedrooms or suites, with generously sized rooms and bathrooms.

All food is included, with early morning tea or coffee, a full buffet breakfast, a varied salad buffet for lunch, and a three-course Moroccan dinner. Coffee or tea is served with meals, and bottled water is available throughout the day. Special diets can be arranged with advance notice. Eggs are available at breakfast for an additional fee and are cooked by a woman from the local village.

Alcohol is available at an extra cost, along with additional drinks and snacks, although the meals are already very generous.

Full use of the hotel facilities, including two beautiful pools, peaceful lounging areas with day beds, two dining areas, Wi-Fi, and small garden courtyard spaces.

Please note that transfers from the airport, station, or Marrakech are an additional charge, usually around £20, and are added to your hotel bill along with any extras you choose to purchase outside the listed inclusions.

Optional extras:

• An onsite hammam for scrub, soak, massage, and other beauty or relaxation treatments
• Excursions to the Atlas Mountains and nearby villages, bookable during your stay
• Visits into Marrakech for the souk, Jardin Majorelle, or museums

Travel arrangements

Tigmi is approximately 30 minutes from Marrakech. Please arrange your international travel to Marrakech airport (RAK) or the train station.

The yoga tuition begins on the morning of 5th September 2027, and you are welcome to arrive at any time on 4th September. Departure is on 11th September 2027, with the final yoga session taking place on the evening of 10th September. You may leave at any time on departure day, although you may need to vacate your room around mid-morning if new guests are arriving.

Transfers to and from Marrakech can be organised for you, usually around 20 Euros each way, as set by the hotel. If you prefer, you may also make your own way to the venue.

Valid travel insurance is required for booking.

Excursions and trips available

A visit to Marrakech is highly recommended, especially for those who enjoy the lively medina and its shopping atmosphere. We also suggest Jardin Majorelle, the Pierre Bergé Museum of Berber Arts, and Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech.

On the mid-week day off, you may choose a trip to the foothills of the Atlas Mountains for walks, waterfalls, and Berber villages with arts and crafts. A more local arts and crafts center is also available, where you can meet local makers. Horse riding trips can be arranged too.

All excursions can be organised once you are there, so there is no need to decide in advance. Or you may simply choose to spend your time relaxing by one of the two pools. Majd and Rajia, who manage Tigmi, will be happy to help arrange a personally curated outing.
