The strenght is to be found in serenity
My name is Nora Curcio
I am a German-Sicilian descent, artist and dancer,
theater woman with her own theater, blogger. Teacher for Dance, Yoga, Tai-Chi,
Ayurvedic bodyworker, mentor of femininity & body work and desert companion.
30 years ago the desert captivated me for the first time and since then I know that in depths I have much more than just a fascination with her!
Today I organize uniquely compiled desert trips and retreats in connection with my knowledge, my experiences and wisdoms with my nomad team.
My lessons and career:
With my versatile training in dance, tai-chi, yoga, ayurvedic bodywork, acting and a lot of self-awareness, I don't just look at a concept.
have been on stage (New York and in Germany with my own theater) for over 30 years and have been giving my knowledge as a teacher in academies and dance schools since then: dancers, actors, professionals and lay people, men, women, adolescents and children.
It is very important to me to give my students the best foundation and to train them in the ability to be their best teacher. My strengths are, among other things, diversity, contagious enthusiasm, empathy and the balance between strict and humor.

Fascinating starry sky and very special people
Hello Nora,
thank you for being part of this great women, no queen. You have not promised too much when you announced us daily delicacies, breathtaking landscapes, magical nights, a fascinating starry sky and very special people. Starting with you, a warm and so sympathetic life artist, further with our desert boys, who spoiled us every day with delicious food, attentions, music and hikes through a beautiful nature. The sand bathing and the hammam were unbelievable ... I really felt like a queen. Our daily small exercises, the intensive conversations and the opportunity to finally deal with themselves in peace have made these days so infinitely valuable for me.

It was a fantastic time in "nothing". The calm, the vastness, the essentials…. Madness.
Since I was arriving in Marrakesh, I always had a good feeling and full trust in the team of the team and knew that everything would be great. The journey into the desert was like a trip into nowhere. The storm slowly decreased and a few hours after arrival in the camp, the sky was blue. The team, the boys, set up a great camp, so that we had almost arrived in our home for the next few days.
It was a fantastic time in "nothing". The calm, the vastness, the essentials…. Madness.
We had great profound and inspiring conversations, laughed a lot and warmly, I felt incredibly comfortable. With the exercises and tips, my body relaxed completely. The meals (we were cooked in the morning, at noon and in the evening) were excellent. The "perfect dinner in the dessert" every day. Four hard -working nomads and five dromedare lived with us in the camp. I would have wanted to miss anyone. It was so great at the sunrise to watch the four -legged friends wake up as they climb the dune and look towards the sunrise. Quasi like me ;-). The boys and Nora carried out fantastic excursions with us with exercises and surprised us with sand bathing and steam bath. Yes, really awesome!
Nocturnal, indescribable starry sky. I can't put that into words when I woke up at night and looked at the sky,
I was so happy where I was.
The time in the desert gave me so much. I am grateful that Nora and all other loved ones have shared the great time with me.
An experience that is priceless. I have recharged, I am full of positive energy, with new views and self -image.
"Choukran my loved ones!" Kathy (Tai Chi -desert retreat February 2024)

Here you have the opportunity to calm down through Tai Chi and Qi Gong and extend yourself into silence. The unique environment offers the perfect setting to deepen you into the practice of cultivating life energy. The desert is not just an ideal place, but also offers us important lessons about life.
Through the togetherness with the nomads, their wisdom, their cheerful serenity, their sense of music and rhythm, and their view of life, their love for animal and man and their humility to nature, show us valuable principles that we can integrate into our lives and thus develop a deeper connection to nature, other people and ourselves.
This is exactly why I organize my retreats and desert travel here in the desert with the nomads.
From nomads in the desert we can learn valuable life lessons and feel life in its immense fullness and feel more.
Adaptability.
Nomads in the desert are masters of adaptation. They adapt quickly to changing conditions and use resources efficiently. This ability to adapt can teach us to react flexibly to changes and to counter new situations with openness.
From their mindfulness for the environment, we can learn to deal with nature more consciously. Nomads are closely linked to their natural environment. Your life in the desert requires a deep understanding of nature and the ability to deal with limited resources.
Community sense : Since nomads often live in narrow communities in which cohesion and mutual support are decisive for survival, this solidarity can inspire us to appreciate and promote the value of community and interpersonal relationships in our modern world.
Appreciate simplicity.
Nomads often lead a simple life in which they concentrate on the bare essentials. This can encourage us to recognize the importance of simplicity and minimalism in order to lead a fulfilling life beyond material superfluousness.
About Tai Chi, Qi Gong and Life Energy
Tai Chi is a traditional Chinese martial art that is also seen as a form of meditative movement training. The regular practice of Tai Chi can have various positive effects on the body and mind. This includes strengthening the muscles, improving balance and coordination, reducing stress and anxiety, promoting relaxation and well -being as well as increasing concentration and mental clarity. Tai-Chi can also help improve flexibility and support general physical health.
In my work as a teacher for all body skills, I attach great importance to understanding, attitude, accuracy and a healthy foundation. These days you will experience your body and energy completely new.
