Spend 8 days and 7 nights in the stunning Ourika Valley. Our beautiful retreat center is 45 minutes south of Marrakech. Here, you will enjoy striking mountain views, expertly landscaped gardens, and a fully-equipped yoga studio. Throughout your stay, you will eat delicious homemade Moroccan food. Likewise, you will relax, renew, sip mint tea, and immerse yourself in the vibrancy and hospitality of Morocco. We will have 1-2 yoga sessions each day. Our morning sessions will include vinyasa yoga and short meditations. Our evening sessions will include yin and restorative yoga. While a basic level of yoga experience is very helpful, all sessions will be appropriate for everyone. Additionally, each day will feature curated cultural activities. Expect to meet a diverse range of real people while in Morocco. My yoga retreats emphasize meaningful cultural immersion & mindful travel. The practices of yoga & mindfulness provide the ground as we connect, discover, and expand. All of my yoga retreats give back to local charities that empower women and girls.

Optional Sahara Desert Extension Trip: Oct. 23-28, 2021 (more details here)

A trip to Turkey would not be complete without a visit to the totally unique region of Cappadocia.  Known for its distinctive "fairy chimneys," underground cities, and enchanting moonscape terrain, its charm and curiosity should not be missed. 

During our four day stay in Cappadocia, we will tour the local UNESCO heritage sites, learn about the ancient history and early Christianity of the region, practice yoga on a scenic outdoor deck, appreciate local food and handicrafts, and take an inspiring (and optional) early morning hot air balloon ride.

Spend 9 days and 8 nights in extraordinary Turkey.  This trip is a perfect balance of old and new, immersion and rest, and city and nature. Our daily movement and mindfulness practices will support our bodies and minds so that we can travel deeper, learn more, and leave feeling nourished and inspired. 

We will start our retreat in the inimitable city of Istanbul, the only capital in the world split between two continents.  Our time will begin with an immersion into ancient Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Istanbul. Along the way, we will shop, cruise the Bosphorus at sunset, and enjoy delicious Turkish meals and breaks for Turkish coffee and tea (and baklava and Turkish delights too, of course). On our last day in Istanbul, we will visit a local charity to learn about the work they are doing to support Turkish women. We will also visit local artisans and enjoy a stroll off the beaten path to see some lesser-known, hidden Turkish gems.

Next, we will fly south to Faralya and spend four days on the gorgeous Turkish coast. Here, you will have plenty of time to rest and rejuvenate or have free time for extra activities. As a group, we will spend one day touring the stunning Butterfly Valley in a traditional Turkish gulet and another day viewing the remarkable Lycian ruins at Kayaköy village and catching the amazing view from the top of Baba Mountain.

Throughout your stay, you will enjoy daily yoga classes (appropriate and accessible for all levels of experience), carefully curated cultural activities, and opportunities to interact in meaningful ways with the diverse people of Turkey. 

Nicole lived in Turkey in 2007 and has continued to visit and study the country and its fascinating cultures ever since. This trip has been expertly and thoughtfully curated to showcase Turkey's rich cultural and geographic diversity.  The trip will be capped at 12 participants to ensure an intimate and intentional experience. This retreat will also have a social impact as $200 per booking will be donated to Mor Cati, an Istanbul-based charity that supports survivors of domestic violence in Turkey.

This 3-part series is for all pregnant people, as well as birth workers with vaginas.

It’s time to get connected to the part of your body through which your baby is born. So many of us are disconnected, misinformed and confused about how our vaginas work and how we can work with them.

In this safe, confidential, supportive environment, you’ll have an opportunity to take an inward journey (fully clothed) to expand your capacity to open more easily for your baby, your pleasure and your power. We’ll illuminate and begin to release any shame, suffering, negative beliefs, traumas and unconscious physiological patterns that could make it difficult for us to open and accept the intensity of birth.

Location: Natural Resources (via Zoom)

Let's revive, refresh and realign at the spectacular eco-chic Pachamama retreat center in Baja Mexico.
