THE PLACE

Essaouira, or Mogador, was historically the home of many nomadic ethnic groups such as the Gnawa.

Today it is both a city of artists and sportsmen, which gives it a very special energy to the great delight of passing tourists.

Embraced by the Atlantic Ocean, Essaouira benefits from a mild microclimate all year round; it is warm in winter and cool in summer, thanks to the wind which gives the city its nickname of the City of Trade Winds.

Villa Baboucha

Villa Baboucha is a secluded ksar in the Essaouira countryside, far from the hustle and bustle of the cities and only 7 km from the airport by direct flight from Paris.

A haven of peace, authentic, ethical & chic, protected from the wind, with a pool heated all year round, indoor and outdoor spaces that favor the peace and privacy of guests, a common lounge area that allows you to relax and chat with the Yoga, Surf and therapeutic care instructors in complete tranquility.

Each participant will be able to enjoy the privacy and space of their private suite with adjoining bathroom and terraces.

MEALS

Food is fuel for the body, but also for the mind and soul.

This is why we work hand in hand with local producers and passionate chefs.

Meals will be mainly vegetarian with some fish dishes.

You can practice intermittent fasting to allow your digestive system to gently detoxify.

All meals will be provided by Pascal and his team; fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices come from the Akal farm, located 20 km from Essaouira.

All the products used in the development of healthy and delicious recipes come from local sources and are of the freshest quality.

These meals will also be an opportunity to discover the flavors of Huages ​​products, as well as the benefits delivered by the CBD molecule. You can accompany your meal with a golden latte or even a matcha .

THERAPEUTIC YOGA

Emilie is a passionate teacher and a dedicated yogi for 17 years.

She will guide the 2 daily practices of 2 hours each; dynamic and vitalizing yoga in the morning and gentle and restorative yoga in the evening.

A deep exploration of the breath, an introduction to postures and the many other facets of yoga with a mix of technique and intuition.

During these practices, we will use different tools such as pranayamas (breathing techniques), asanas (static postures), mudras ("finger yoga"), mantras, meditation. We will also explore duo postures to connect together and evolve in the postures thanks to body weight.

And for more relaxation and calm, the founder of Huages ​​will present the benefits of CBD during the practice of yoga, while offering you a few drops of RÊVE oil.

THERAPEUTIC SURFING

Ali is a seasoned surfer who transmits his passion intuitively with great generosity.

Surfing will allow you to connect with the energy of the elements: the energizing fire of the sun, finding your balance in the wind and moving with the fluidity of water.

Immersion in water also has multiple benefits for the health and vitality of the body and mind.

CARE

Let yourself be carried away for a few minutes in a moment of well-being during a massage with Rêve oil.

Arafat will give you a deep and intuitive massage inspired by Swedish, Hawaiian and Thai techniques.

Depending on your needs, these treatments will be draining and more or less tonic, and will allow muscular recovery and deep relaxation.

SLOW DOWN WORKSHOPS

You will enjoy two workshops on food. "Slow cooking" or reconnecting with your sensations through slow cooking, and "slow eating" to (re)learn how to eat consciously and appreciate every bite.

We are also planning a hiking tour to introduce you to mindful walking, like a moving meditation.

Finally, a sound treatment will allow you to recharge your batteries at the cellular level thanks to the vibratory power of the instruments.
