Novak Djokovic, the 24-time Grand Slam champion, is set to host a three-day wellness retreat in Marrakech, Morocco, from December 18-20. The retreat, titled "Stillness and Strength: A Novak Djokovic Retreat," will combine tennis, meditation, breathwork, and restorative experiences designed to connect physical training with mental balance. The program is built around movement, mindfulness, recovery, and ritual, giving guests a closer look at the practices Djokovic uses to approach performance and pressure.
The retreat will take place at Amanjena, a resort surrounded by gardens, olive groves, and palm trees, with the High Atlas Mountains in the background. The resort's clay tennis courts will host the retreat's on-court sessions, led by Djokovic himself. Guests will have the opportunity to train with the tennis champion and explore the discipline behind his game. The experience will also include daily mindfulness, meditation, and breathing sessions, guided by Amanjena's wellness specialists and Djokovic.
The Marrakech setting gives the retreat a distinctly local feel, with guests receiving a "Beldi Hammam" treatment and a therapeutic Argan oil massage, bringing two familiar Moroccan wellness rituals into Djokovic's approach to recovery. The retreat's focus on performance, recovery, and wellbeing will also include carefully curated daily menus, personally selected by Djokovic, adding nutrition to the program.
This is not Djokovic's first wellness retreat; he hosted his inaugural in-person Aman retreat at Amanyara in Turks and Caicos, exploring the connection between physical performance and mental wellbeing with guests. The Marrakech retreat builds on Djokovic's wider partnership with Aman, where he serves as Global Ambassador and Wellness Advisor, collaborating on wellness programs centered on longevity, movement, recovery, and mindfulness.
The "Stillness and Strength" retreat offers guests a chance to step away from the noise and experience Djokovic's idea of balance when the match is over. With tennis, meditation, Moroccan treatments, and carefully curated cuisine woven into three days, the retreat provides a unique opportunity for guests to focus on their physical and mental wellbeing.
Amanjena's setting and Djokovic's personal involvement will create a unique experience for guests. The retreat's combination of physical training, mindfulness, and local wellness rituals will give guests a chance to explore the connection between physical performance and mental balance.
