Surf and yoga in Taghazout
Surf with us in the morning when the wind is light. Yoga in the afternoon at a studio we would go to ourselves. No bundled package, no margin on someone else's class.
Lessons run every day of the year. No prepayment — message us and we confirm tomorrow’s time once we have seen the tide. 60+ five-star reviews on Google & TripAdvisor.
Why the two belong together
Surf and yoga go together for a boring, practical reason: surfing wrecks your shoulders, your lower back and your hip flexors, and two hours of paddling on day one is why most people are stiff and slow by day three. Yoga is the thing that keeps you in the water for the whole week instead of half of it.
Here is how we do it, honestly: we teach the surfing. We do not run our own yoga studio, and we are not going to invent one. What we do is build the week around both — surf sessions timed to the tide and the wind, and yoga at one of the studios in Taghazout or Tamraght that we actually send people to and would go to ourselves.
That is a better deal than it sounds. You get surf coaching from someone who has surfed this coast for fourteen years, and yoga from someone who teaches yoga full time, instead of both from whoever happened to be free.
What a surf and yoga day actually looks like
The rhythm that works, and the one we build for people:
- Early morning — surf. The wind is lightest before about 11am almost every day of the year. This is not negotiable if you want good conditions.
- Late morning — eat and do nothing. You will be more tired than you expect.
- Late afternoon or sunset — yoga. Hips, shoulders, thoracic spine. This is what lets you paddle properly again tomorrow.
- Rest day mid-week. Swap the surf for Paradise Valley or the dunes. Six consecutive surf days is how people get injured.
If you are a complete beginner, that pattern matters even more. Read how long it really takes to learn before you plan seven straight days of lessons.

Frequently asked
Do you run your own yoga classes?+
No, and we would rather say so than pretend. We teach the surfing and arrange your yoga at one of the studios in Taghazout or Tamraght that we genuinely recommend. You pay them directly, which works out cheaper than a bundled package.
Why is yoga good for surfing?+
Surfing loads your shoulders, lower back and hip flexors hard, and most people are stiff and slow by day three of a surf trip. Yoga is what keeps you paddling properly for the whole week rather than half of it.
When should I do yoga around a surf session?+
Surf early, when the wind is lightest, and do yoga late afternoon or at sunset. Doing yoga before an early surf tends to leave you tired for the session that actually matters.
How much does a surf and yoga week cost in Taghazout?+
Our surf side is published: EUR25 a group lesson, EUR45 private, from EUR69 for a multi-day course. Yoga drop-in classes are paid directly to the studio and are inexpensive here.
