Alessia has already travelled through the desert in 2025 with a group, and she has chosen to experience this adventure once again, while sharing it with everyone who wishes to join this beautiful journey.
"Welcome,
There's a vibration you can only hear when everything else is silent. It's The Voice of the Desert.
We invite you on a journey into the beating heart of Morocco, where the dunes become our open-air shala. In this retreat, yoga isn't just movement, but a dialogue with the infinite. On the warm sand, between the breath of the wind and the golden sunset, we'll learn to distinguish the noise of the mind from the deep voice of the heart.
We'll let the Sahara teach us the art of letting go, grounding, and pure presence. An experience for those who want not only to practice yoga, but to lose themselves in the immensity and then find themselves again.
During our journey through the desert, there will be moments dedicated to meditation, deep listening, and yoga practices that will allow us to live the experience with presence and centering."

Alessia
I’m Ale (yogAle), and I’ll guide you in rediscovering your inner peace through yoga and meditation. My journey into this world began in 1995, when I discovered yoga at just 18 years old. After that start, I went through some turbulent years that led me to travel extensively, exploring the world far from home in search of my path. Later, I embarked on a solid corporate career as an Executive Assistant. In 2021, however, I chose to hang up my business suit to pursue my true dream and devote myself entirely to teaching. Today, I bring to you over 900 hours of training in Hatha, Prana, and Nada Yoga, to share with you all the peace that this discipline has given me.
