What to Bring

The weather in Marrakech in May is, in our opinion, the perfect mix; expect warm days and slightly cooler evenings. We recommend packing a variety of light layers so you can stay comfortable, day or night.

Plus, you’ll have access to the outdoor pool and our concierge so you can explore more of Morocco during your retreat. 

If you're planning to venture to the medinas or further afield, pack some longer, more modest layers.

We’ve brought together a kit list of essentials to help you start your retreat preparations without the stress.

Meet Your Host

Greta Wright

After working as a professional dancer, a more ‘normal’ life was calling; taking on a management role at a London dance studio, the draw of movement was too much. Greta decided to train up in a variety of disciplines including Pilates, Barre, TRX and pre and post natal exercise.

As she moved into the fitness space, Greta worked for US fitness giant Beachbody, at many boutique fitness studios in London and taught at a range of wellness festivals including Wilderness, Sweatlife, Balance and Hearst Live. In 2018, Greta was invited to become a Lululemon Ambassador, connecting her to a network of incredible wellness professionals.

Since starting a family, Greta has moved to Berkshire and teaches at a range of studios, including Core Connexion Studio. We’re excited to welcome her to Core Connexion Retreats, bringing her wealth of experience and uplifting personality to our UK and worldwide retreats.

”My greatest happiness is found in movement! I love sharing this with clients, helping them understand and embrace their bodies. I strive to lead sessions that are functional, strengthening and mobilising the body, but always with the intention of bringing enjoyment. I have been lucky to work with clients of all age and ability levels, helping them achieve their goals!”

Greta Wright, Retreat Host
