Yoga & Fitness - Surf Maroc

Yoga & Fitness at Surf Maroc

Yoga & Fitness is a big part of the Surf Maroc experience. With three locations offering high-quality yoga, as well as Yoga Fitness Week experiences, all with professional and experienced teachers, there is something for everyone.

Amouage
Villa Mandala

Amouage

We welcome you to our Amouage Shala, the largest and most stunning yoga studio in Taghazout.

We have experienced in-house yoga teachers, who offer inspiring, uplifting, and fun yoga classes for all abilities. Yoga goes hand in hand with surfing in our opinion and it’s an important part of the Surf Maroc ethos. Our teachers blend dynamic Ashtanga, Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Kundalini, Hatha and Yin Yoga.

Classes are every day, for one hour and open to the public for all levels. Classes start at sunrise and sunset respectively at the Amouage shala, as well as regular afternoon classes of various styles including Yin and Restorative.

The Amouage Shala is also our location for our special summer Fitness Weeks sessions – see more below!

For all guests attending a yoga class who are staying at Amouage or Taghazout Villa, this will be their practice space during their stay.

Yoga at Amouage

The Shala

Found on the rooftop of the Amouage, this stylish sheltered Shala is the largest and busiest yoga space in town. With huge views overlooking the ocean, large floor to ceiling windows, natural cork floor, neon ‘breathe’ sign, lanterns and cactus garden viewing deck, it’s perfectly set up for you to find your zen.
The Equipment

The Amouage shala is equipt with a wide variety of yoga props. This is to allow every yogi to have the deepest, most effective practice for their body, whatever style of yoga class they decide to join.

In the Shala you will find available to use: mats, blocks, straps, bolsters, blankets, eye pillows, sandbags and tennis balls.
Karma Corner

In the corner of the shala you will see budda surrounded by crystals, cactus and brass pot. This is our Karma Corner. As part of our All The Good Things initiative, every week we have a Community Class where anyone can attend and donate money to our charity of the month. All money collected, and any donation given by generous souls outside of this class, are given to this corner.

You can find our more about our All The Good Things initiative and the causes we support here.

Yoga Classes

At Amouage we offer a wide variety of yoga classes that serves all levels and needs. There are at least two classes per day at sunrise and sunset respectively, as well as regular afternoon classes and more. To work out which style suits you best, check out our different classes and see a small snippet of each to get a full flavour.

Flow

Experience the wide variety of yoga styles offered in our teaching team through these
classes. Our flow sessions are an open class for all levels.

Yin

Nourish your tired muscles with long hold floor poses. Each pose is held for up to 3 minutes, followed by a 2-minute relaxing rebound. This allows you to activate your chi-flow, deeply open the connective tissue and connect your breath with your body.

Rise

Awaken your body with the sunrise with Hatha yoga and gentle flows. Allow yourself to revive the body, mind and breath to nicely set you up for the day ahead.

Restorative

Completely relax and unwind in cosy supported yoga postures. You will be guided into deeply comforting poses, where you will stay for 10 minutes sinking deeper into relaxation. With gentle massages and light pressing, you’re guaranteed drift into zen-bliss.

Workshop

A special weekly 90-minute session where you can experience taking your practice to a deeper level. For beginners to advanced practitioners.

Back to Basics

Here we work on the foundations of your practice. We take our time during this session to break down and perfect postures. For all levels.

Community Class

As part of our All the Good Things initiative, our weekly Community Class at our Auberge Shala gathers yogis to raise money for great local causes. This class, where attendance is by donation only, brings together our community to practice together for a different cause each month.
