COMING HOME: A SĀMYA RETREAT

Sunday 13th October – Saturday 19th October 2026
Ourika Valley, Morocco

Away from the rush of the world, this is an invitation to return. Six 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.

ABOUT   THE RETREAT

WHY THIS RETREAT

"Coming Home" is an exploration of belonging. It is a week dedicated to discovering what "home" truly means—finding it within the rhythm of your own breath, the strength of your body, and the warmth of a shared table.

Each day is anchored by steady practices—meditation and breath-led movement in the morning, and slower sessions in the late afternoon—to help you cultivate a reliable sense of home within yourself. In between, we explore home through connection: gathering for nourishing local meals, sharing stories, and closing our evenings with the collective resonance of yin and live music.

Surrounded by the ancient energy of the Atlas Mountains, the rhythm is unhurried on purpose. You're invited to be looked after, to breathe more gently, and to remember what it feels like to find home both in your own skin and in the company of others.

WHO IT'S FOR

Come as you are—curious beginner, returning practitioner, or someone simply craving a clearer head and a kinder pace. If you’ve felt stretched thin, if sleep has slipped, or if you want practices that meet you without pressure, you’ll feel at home here. Solo travellers, friends and partners are all welcome; we keep the group intimate and the teaching inclusive, with options offered throughout so you can choose what serves you on the day.

YOU'LL LEAVE WITH

By the end of our six nights together, you’ll have a felt sense of home and everyday tools to keep it: a simple morning sequence, down-shifting breathwork for stressful moments, and a renewed sense of connection. Expect steadier sleep, a quieter mind, and a body that has been listened to. You’ll leave with new friendships and a gentler rhythm to carry back into your life.

YOUR HOSTS

Coming Home is a retreat born from a shared love of movement, heritage, and the deep sense of belonging found in community.

Laura and Jade are the founders of Sāmya Studios, a space dedicated to mindful movement, breath, and deep rest in Islington, London. Together, they bring their complementary perspectives—yoga, breathwork, and deep embodiment alongside a profound, personal connection to Moroccan culture—to create an experience that explores what it means to find home within yourself and with others.

With over a decade of teaching experience, Laura weaves together yoga, breathwork, somatics, and sound healing to create practices that feel both grounding and expansive. Rooted in the philosophy that slowing down makes us stronger, Laura guides with an intuitive, cyclical approach—encouraging you to listen inward and honour your own rhythm.

Retreat   Highlights

The Venue

Set in Mallorca’s quiet countryside, our venue includes a beautiful finca with a hilltop open-air shala, an infinity pool, and plenty of calm corners to rest.

It’s a simple, thoughtful setting for steady practice, shared meals, and unhurried evenings.

The Shala

The Rooms

A mix of inviting rooms and unique stays across the finca’s grounds, thoughtfully furnished and close to communal spaces. Comfortable, calm and set up for proper rest.

The pool

An infinity pool with sun loungers and shaded areas—perfect for cooling off after morning practice or relaxing in the afternoon pause.

Cuisine

Delicious, organic vegetarian meals made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients by India. We’ll eat together in a relaxed, communal setting.

CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE

While our days are anchored by practice and shared meals, we believe "home" is a personal discovery. We’ve intentionally built in spacious windows of downtime so you can tailor the experience to what you need in the moment.

How you might spend your unhurried afternoons:

  • The Explorer: Take a taxi into Marrakech a get lost in the vibrant energy of the Medina.

  • The Wanderer: Head back out into the valley for more hiking through the local wildflowers.

  • The Nurturer: Curl up in a quiet corner with a book, your journal, and a view of the mountains.

  • The Rester: Spend your afternoon by the pool, soaking up the Moroccan sun.

There is no pressure to participate in everything. This is your time to return to yourself, however that looks for you.
