A retreat here is built around the dunes. Mornings start with practice on a flat area of sand the team prepares for you, with the Erg Chebbi dunes as the setting. Afternoons move to a shaded space at the camp, which matters once the sun is high. Mats and cushions are supplied, so groups do not need to fly with their own.

The camp is family-run and confirms every booking personally. For retreats they can reserve part or all of the camp, which means a group can have the site to itself rather than practising alongside other travellers. The team answers enquiries in French, and replies usually come within a few hours, or within 24 hours for a full quote.

Food is vegetarian or vegan, prepared in the camp kitchen. Light vegetarian meals are available on request. Guests stay in private tents with their own bathroom, with proper beds rather than thin mats on the ground.

Free time is genuinely free. You can walk into the dunes, take a camel ride, go to the village hammam, or rest at camp. Excursions are arranged on the days without sessions. Spring can be windy, and the team keeps a sheltered space ready for those days.

This is not a packaged retreat with a fixed timetable and a named instructor. It is a camp that hosts retreat groups: you bring the programme and the teacher, and they provide the setting, the practice spaces, the food and the tents. If you do not have a teacher, ask and they will try to help.
