Connect. Move. Explore. Unwind. Recharge.

Zen & Zest is a unique dance retreat blending the high-energy rhythms of salsa with the fluidity of Brazilian Zouk, a touch of expressive Afro-Cuban movement, grounding breathwork, authentic Moroccan culture and activity in nature right on the coast of Morocco.

Whether you're here to refine your skills, try something new, or simply embrace movement in a vibrant, cultural setting, this retreat has something for you.

Here’s what you can expect…

Beginner dancers, you’ll learn foundational techniques in Brazilian Zouk and salsa (Cuban-linear fusion) with expert instructors who break everything down step-by-step in a supportive, non-judgmental space.

You won’t feel left behind – even if you’re brand new – and will leave the retreat confident in your new skillset!

Intermediate dancers, you’ll refine your technique, break through bad habits and explore new ways to express yourself. These workshops will challenge and inspire you to level up your dance and unique style, while developing deeper musicality and inner growth.

Please note: Though you might have a preferred role, everyone here will learn both leading and following! This not only improves your skills and understanding of the technique, but also opens up more dancers for you and makes you a better dancer!

But this is more than just dance…

Our Zen & Zest Dance Retreat offers a full experience of movement, connection, grounding, and culture. Enjoy Morocco’s stunning coastline, unwind with sound healing and restorative yoga, a night of candlelit yin with live piano, breathwork meditation mornings, and soak in the vibrant local culture through a Moroccan traditional Gnawa music show, authentic communal meals, a day trip to a natural gorge… and plenty of add-on activities to choose-your-own-adventure!
