Nadine Bader

Nadine has lived in Berlin since 2002 and has also found yoga there. Especially in the bustling city, she finds her little daily break. The yoga mat is for her a small island on which the world out there should not matter for 90 minutes.

She has practiced for 15 years and feels very connected to the flowing Vinyasa Flow style. In 2011 she completed her yoga teacher training with Lara Baumann (Quantum Yoga) in London and in 2016 the further 500+ education with Patricia Thielemann (Spirit Yoga Berlin).

Nadine teaches fluent, dynamic and above all powerful yoga classes. She attaches great importance to motivating her students to draw from their own strength and to meet their own practice and themselves with humor and ease. The time on the yoga mat is to give the student a sense of strength, but also peace, in order to be able to face everyday life stronger.

Two years ago, she discovered her love of restorative yoga and also offers Yin Yoga lessons. Through regular workshops and further education, among others with Max Strom, Bryan Kest, Ana Forest, Tias Little and many others, she finds new inspiration for her own practice and her lessons.

Marrakech:

In Marrakech you are accommodated right in the middle of the Medina, Marrakech’s old part of the city, in one of our carefully chosen, familiar Partner Riads. Cool and comfortable, beautiful and absolutely quiet though right in the center, the chosen Riad provides you with the fitting environment to dust off, relax, enjoy the sun and a glas of Moroccan tea any time of the day. And of course serves us comfortably for our daily yoga practice – if the weather allows, on the Riad’s rooftop.
Regular accommodation happens to be in shared, spacious triple rooms (same gender) with separated beds, ensuite bathrooms & free wifi access. Single or double/twin accommodation is bookable upon request / availability and with subject to surcharges.

Essaouira:

Your Essaouira experience starts at Riad Kafila, a traditional Moroccan home, which borders the sea wall and overlooks the rocky beachscape of the northwest corner of this fortress city. Riad Kafila is one of the best located riads in the medina of Essaouira with an amazing ocean view.  The team welcomes you with a blend of desert simplicity, modern comfort and warmhearted hospitality.

It is comprised of three floors and a stunning rooftop terrace with views up and down Essaouira’s scenic coast. The riad is an oasis of calm only a few minutes from the many restaurants, souks, cafes and shops in the medina, and only five minutes walking from both the harbor and the kilometers of endless sandy beach.

Marrakech holds an international Airport Marrakech Menara. Transportation from and to the airport is arranged by NOSADE once you submitted your flight details.

Please note: Flights are not included in the quoted price.

Accept what is. Escape daily routines, find inner peace, inner balance, and inner tranquility. Morocco will challenge you to do so – with all its sounds, smells & (for us Westerners) sometimes unusual manners. We encourage you to open up for all those impressions.

Two daily Yoga and meditation sessions in Morocco’s mystical surroundings will be accompanying and supporting this experience.
