Desert Wellness & Yoga Session
The silence of the dunes makes a natural place to slow down. This session, led by a qualified instructor arranged on request, combines gentle yoga, breathing and a few quiet minutes simply listening to the desert.

About this activity
Sessions take place at sunrise or in the late afternoon, avoiding the midday heat. Your instructor chooses a sheltered, flat area near your camp or at the edge of the dunes and adapts the practice to everyone’s level — from complete beginners to regular practitioners.
A typical session includes a short warm-up, a flowing sequence of accessible postures, breathing exercises and a relaxation or meditation to close. Practising on sand is different from a studio floor: it’s softer and less stable, which can be a pleasant challenge. Mats are typically provided (to be confirmed).
We only run this activity with a qualified instructor, arranged on request and subject to availability. Please tell us about injuries, pregnancy or health conditions in advance.
