About this trip
Away from the rush of the world, this is an invitation to return. Seven nights centered on practice, heritage, and the deep comfort of belonging—quiet mornings in the valley, unhurried afternoons, and soulful nights under the stars.
Coming Home is about more than a destination. It’s about embodying the Sāmya vibe in a land deeply personal to us. Jade, co-owner of Sāmya and a native of Morocco, welcomes you to his roots for an immersion that explores the "home" within your own body and the vibrant culture of the Ourika Valley.
Marhaba—you're welcome here.

Ourika, MoroccoAbout your organizer
Sāmya Studios is a London-based yoga, pilates, and breathwork studio rooted in community care. Laura B. Childs founded Sāmya for people who are tired, overstimulated, and not interested in doing more just to relax. Her work spans dynamic, slow, and restorative practices, conscious connected breathwork, and yoga nidra, with a focus on somatics and nervous system care. Sessions are shaped by the energy in the room and how people feel, not how things look. Expect clear guidance, invitational language, and options for all bodies. Laura leads every Sāmya retreat herself with help from her team, Áine and Jade. Sāmya retreats are designed as a proper reset: a week to slow down, sleep well, eat well, and come home.
