Pilates Retreat

We are introducing our next Pilates Retreat from 12th-16th November 2025, led by experts in Pilates, Mindfulness and Meditation.

The four night retreat is fully inclusive, with unlimited spa and beauty treatments.

The retreat will be run by Victoria Turner, who has practised Pilates for 25 years and trained as a BASI (Body Arts and Science International) fully qualified comprehensive instructor in 2015. She teaches in the Peak District, UK, to all ages and capabilities, both for performance and rehabilitation purposes. Victoria started hosting Pilates retreats at Ezzahra in Marrakech 8 years ago and they have since been enjoyed by many people from around the world. Guests return time and time again for the joy and wellbeing from these magical retreats.

The retreat will also be supported by Milla Beeson, who has been practicing pilates for the past 18 years. She trained with BASI (Body Arts and Science International) and qualified as a fully comprehensive instructor in 2014. She has a fully equipped studio in North Norfolk and teaches both mat and equipment classes. As a teacher she is fully invested in the importance of personal growth and regularly attends workshops to develop her professional skills to share in her classes. She adores being part of the team at Ezzahra and sharing her love and passion of movement with guests from around the world.

Victoria and Milla will be joined by Judith Elliot, who spent her early career as MD of a corporate communications company in London, and as a consultant at the European Commission in Brussels. She then trained in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and has run a busy practice for over 25 years specialising in fertility and gynaecology. She is a Council Member of the renowned College of Integrated Chinese Medicine in Reading, UK. She also teaches mindfulness and meditation to small groups and is passionate about helping beginners learn this amazing life skill.

The retreat will include two mat classes daily and meditation classes as well as an individual Pilates assessment if required.

Additional highlights included are a tour of the Medina as well as some shopping in the souk and other seasonal outings within Marrakech. Occasional outings in the surrounding countryside, like Imlil, for a days walk and lunch in the mountains are also organised.
