Introducing our yoga Escape to Hotel Tigmi
This June, we are delighted to be running our third yin/yang yoga break to the spectacular Hotel Tigmi, 30 minutes from Marrakech.
This landscape of banana palms, cirtus trees and bougainvillea radiates sunlight and warmth. There is space and quiet in abundance.
Each of the rooms is individually decorated and beautifully decorated with handcrafted Berber furnishings, cushions, covers and wall hangings - a true Moroccan escape. Open fireplaces, luxurious shampoo and body products complete the feeling that you are somewhere very special indeed.
Daily yoga and meditation
Two daily yoga classes will be taken in the coverered upstairs terrace, with its open countryside views.
The morning class will be led by established vinyasa flow teacher, Jodie Merrick, and will be faster and more dynamic in flavour. The early evening session, taught by Lucia Cockcroft, will take place before dinner, and will be a combination of mindfulness meditation and relaxing, restorative poses.
Both classes will be suitable for people of all yoga experience and backgrounds.
