Sunlight filters through a painted mashrabiya and pools on cool zellij tiles as you step into a Marrakech riad for a private hour of guided breath and movement. The courtyard hush narrows the city’s pulse to a steady exhale; Maella leads a session that moves from fluid Vinyasa into deep Yin and restorative Hatha, inviting attention to sensation and rhythm.

Give yourself time to find the riad
Streets in the medina are narrow and numbered inconsistently—arrive 15–20 minutes early and download offline maps or share the riad’s landmark with your driver.
Shoes and modesty
Remove shoes before entering the courtyard; wear breathable, modest clothing for transit through the medina.
Hydrate and pace
Morocco’s dry climate can dehydrate you—drink water before class and sip after; the practice can be adjusted if heat or intensity becomes uncomfortable.
Communicate health needs
Inform the instructor of injuries, pregnancy or cardiovascular issues—sessions are private and can be modified accordingly.
Lightweight yoga clothing
Breathable layers keep you comfortable in Marrakech’s warm indoor courtyards.
