"Pure Bliss "
Das Hotel und der Service waren einfach übertreffend – eine wahre Wellness-Oase abseits der Medina. Perfekt, um ein paar Tage zur Ruhe zu kommen. Obwohl es etwas abgelegen von Marrakesch liegt, ist es dank des Hoteltransfers gut erreichbar.
Das Yoga war wunderbar bereichernd! Ich habe so viel Neues über die Theorie gelernt. Ines strahlt eine besondere Ruhe aus, geht individuell auf jede Person ein, korrigiert Posen und gibt wertvolle Tipps. Ein absolut empfehlenswertes Retreat für Körper und Geist!

Je voulais décrocher et me recentrer, c’était le lieu parfait pour le faire. Tout est fait pour que l’on s’y sente bien. Personnel adorable, nourriture délicieuse et lieu paradisiaque. J’ai eu beaucoup de plaisir à découvrir le yoga avec Ines, elle prend le temps d’expliquer les effets bénéfiques de chaque position.

"This retreat opened a whole new world for me :)"
I went to Ines’s retreat as a beginner to Yoga, in need for peaceful recovery from day to day stress, but also keen to have a serious introduction to the practice. I couldn’t have asked for more. The absolute highlight of the retreat was the instructor, Ines, herself. I’m new to Yoga, but I’ve been learning and teaching sports for most of my life. Ines’s ability to effortlessly guide you through the exercises based on your physical ability and grasp of what you’re doing is something very few instructors can provide at such a competent level. She is so well tuned to where you are through the sessions that you can just let go and she will take you through rewarding challenges for your body and mind. Her knowledge and understanding of Yoga is immense. You’ll get from her as much as you are ready for. Even though I was a beginner, a week in the retreat was enough for me to develop a very deep interest in pursuing Yoga further. In addition to the physical joy I felt during my week there, I even tapped into some spiritual experiences whose meaning I’ve yet to fully process.
The resort (Jnane Allia), was peaceful, tastefully built and looked after by a group of very nice people. The food was super, the rooms had a very authentic feel to them, very spacious and comfortable. The place is isolated and is more for having a peaceful time by yourself than for socializing. You can reach many attractions from there such as visiting Marrakech or doing excursions around.

We had a really wonderful stay here - it was so peaceful and relaxing.
1. The yoga was lovely, we had 2 sessions each day with Ines. The classes were well suited to the varied needs of the group, and I learnt a lot, thankyou Ines!
2. The resort itself is lovely - so peaceful. The room was spacious, and clean. The pool area was a fabulous place to relax.
The meals were delicious!
It is quite a way out of Marrakesh (approx €40 taxi, 40mins), and there isn't really anything nearby to walk to. This isn't an issue because you should just relax, but maybe bring with you snacks if you want!

"Review of yoga retreat Marrakech "
I loved both venues and the fact that they were very contrasting . Ines organised everything in advance and communicated so well it all felt very easy. The food at both places was lovely. Really nice to have a set meal as added to feeling of being cared for and relaxing - no decisions to make. I loved being able to do yoga outside and inside when needed. Ines was able to shape the yoga we did to varying abilities . Her approach to yoga and her snacking experience and knowledge was perfect for me . I loved it.

"The best yoga teacher you can dream of!"
I can't thank Ines enough for her teaching. No matter if there's is 6 people for the yoga classes or if you're on your own (such a treat!), Ines will care for you and help you progress! Not only does Ines teach you yoga, she also shares a bit of her universe with you (if you feel so!) and this is outstanding.

Ines is a wonderful teacher. She has a very good knowledge yoga technic & effect on your body. She also explains very clearly each posture and wellness effect.
The Boutique hotel Jnane Tamsa is a magical place to stay: so peaceful, charming & elegant, combining wonderful nature outside & amazing decoration inside. All the team is very kind & welcoming. The food is very tasteful healthy and creative. Thank you for such a great retreat!

"Unforgettable yoga experience"
Ines was an excellent teacher, I was fortunate to be the only student at the yoga retreat this week. She taught me about yoga theory, breathing and how to deepen specific postures. She was so kind and thoughtful in sharing her practice. The hotel is also unbelievable! The owners are fascinating and welcoming hosts. Feels like home away from home - the perfect way to do a solo yoga retreat!

"Exceptionnel"
J’ai passé une semaine extraordinaire dans un lieu unique. Accueil formidable dans un lieu d’exception.
L’enseignement d’Ines a été une vraie richesse autant physique que spirituelle.
Une approche loin de ce que j’avais fait jusqu’ici à savoir « sportive » du yoga.
Là, j’ai appris et surtout compris Ce que je faisais et pourquoi je le faisais.
Cet apprentissage ajouté au cadre idyllique a été une telle source de joie et d’épanouissement que je le recommande vivement. Et y retournerai moi-même dès que possible.

"Kick start the decade"
Our 4 days was an oasis of calm and relaxation. The accommodation was understated comfort, with a relaxing and homely vibe. The food was fresh, colourful and tasty. The gardens are a plant lovers dream; an incredible creation. Nothing was too much trouble. The three hours of yoga a day taught by the inimitable Ines was a fabulous combination of learning, breathing, movement and enjoyment. We are definitely going back!

"Great disconnection!!"
The stay at the Palmerai was just amazing! It was good for the soul and the body.
I liked the location: an amazing resort with very simple luxury and a great botanical garden. Food was high quality and very healthy, and the staff was always willing yo help. It is a bit outside of the Medina which allows you to fully disconnect.
I very much liked our yoga teacher, Ines. Ines is a skilled person with great values. For me it was the first time that i could get an holistic understanding of what yoga is. Ines teaches you the way to get to many meaningful postures for your body. She has a very pedagogical approach, which is not so common among the teachers i know, and she is willing to help you to understand what is your way to yoga; and how you can make it meaningful for yourself.
Do not expect fixed rigid schedule during the yoga retreat with sessions of intensive workout, but rather flexible time with the teacher to go through many yoga concepts and a lot of work on your cores to finally get to some postures you never thought you would be able to do.
Tip: if you are booking the retreat on your own, you can ask Ines how many persons have registered for the same period. It can happen that you are the only one and the retreat will still take place.
Also, besides the teacher, Ines is also a very interesting person. It was great to meeting her! Highly recommended.

The Yoga lessons were great, Ines provided a lot of insightful knowledge and adapted well to all our yoga levels, while still challenging us.
The location was very beautiful and idyllic, picturesque in the Moroccan countryside far away from hectic Medina. The service was very good, the entire team and staff was highly accomodating!

"Yoga retreat with Ines was great!!"
I stayed at Jnane Alia which is very confortable and elegant in a very simple way. The pool is gorgeous and you can really swimm in it! The suite was extremely confortable and beautiful. The personnel is absolutely adorable and did everything to make me feel like in a perfect home!! I arrived exhausted and depressed following my companion's death 2 months before. After 5 days of yoga classes with Ines at Jnane Alia, I could return to Paris feeling a lot better. I love Ines' yoga both slow and powerful. I find it great for the body and the mind and it really helped my fight against depression and anxiety.
Ines is a wonderful person: very serious about her passion for yoga and at the same time very funny and caring.
This stay did me so much good that I am looking forward returning in January!!

"The best yoga retreat I have been on "
I can not recommend this retreat more highly. Ines is the most wonderful teacher. After 12 years of practice I spent a magical week learning so much from her - her knowledge shines through in every practice. She manages to make the practice so peaceful, restorative and relaxing whilst also challenging. At the end of the week I have never felt stronger or more peaceful.
Jnane Allia is a beautiful setting - away from the hubbub of Marrakech but close enough to go and explore. The staff looked after me so well. I was very sad to leave. They went the extra mile in everything and the food was sensational. The bedrooms are beautiful, lots of space and incredibly comfortable.
I had the most wonderful hammam and massage with Rashida and emerged feeling brand new.
I wholeheartedly recommend this retreat to others - no matter what your level of experience in yoga.

"Fabulous Moroccan yoga experience"
Ines always went beyond the hour and a half, sharing her knowledge and philosophy of yoga. She listened about back concerns and took us through yoga exercises to target and relieve pains. She was an exceptional teacher and is sending exercises to my husband to continue the work he has done with his back. The food was very good: breakfasts exceptional. Rooms were beautiful and large and located close to the lovely pool. Staff were courteous, friendly and discrete. Also, just a twenty minute ride to the airport.

"Perfect Teacher in a marvellous place "
I'm just back from a three days yoga retreat in Jnane Allia.
I was looking for a place where I could relax and do yoga without belonging to a group.I am fully satisifed by my stay. The Riad is just perfect in terms of set up, as it is quite little, everything is easy! The rooms are pretty, big and nothing miss, they are situated around the pool, the atmosphere is very quiet, everybody is really respectful and all is really calm. The food is absolutely fantastic, Stéphanie is great, like a real mom she looks after you during all your stay, I've done two sessions of yoga per day with the great Inès, so devoted and attentive, her yoga method is absolutely great, very different from what I've experienced so far, she teaches hatha yoga by making us learn the asanas but also pranayama and all the philosophy and pillars of yoga (that are too often forgotten). I've loved her behaviour, she is a fantastic teacher and I recommend her to all people who need to have a break and enjoy the peacefulness of yoga.

"Fabulous "
My husband and I attended the retreat together. We had an amazing time. Our personal instructor Ines was brilliant, she walked us through all the postures and we have both returned home very knowledgeable on Yoga. We also had a great laugh with Ines, she was a joy to be with and we shall definitely be returning back next year 🙏. The accommodation was lovely and the food they served us was excellent. Our waiter smile even delivered our tea & juice to our villa in the mornings if we felt like not going to the restaurant. Overall, the whole team where amazing, they couldn't do enough for you. Thank you all so much, it was an absolute pleasure and I'm so looking forward to visiting again next year. It was an absolute delight 😘💪🙏

"A retreat like no other"
The resort was small and beautiful, so personally decorated by the owners, and the staff could not be more helpful or just generally lovely.
Yoga with Ines every day was a treat, sometimes it ran on a little long but you didn't notice as it was all part of a well rounded class.
Food was excellent every day, I'm quite a fussy eater so when I found out there wasn't a menu as such, just freshly prepared food that changed daily, I was a bit nervous, but there was nothing to worry about at all. Breakfast and dinner here every day was delicious and very healthy with a great selection of Moroccan recipes.

"A revelation"
Reviews from 3 superbegginers in Yoga ;)
From Edwige : A great teacher in a great venue. With Inès' yoga sessions twice a day for 6 days I got what I came looking for and even more. A strong knowledge of Yoga's foundations, and a stronger body and mind to take home. Thank you so much Inès for your good humour, your patience and all your advice. I'll be back ;)
From Cecilia : Super semaine de yoga avec une prof passionnée et très professionnelle qui s'adapte au niveau de chacun et qui a à coeur leur progression.
En tant que grande débutante de yoga et n'ayant pas fait de sport depuis 8 mois, 2 sessions de 1H30 par jour me paraissaient beaucoup mais c'est idéal pour découvrir les bases du yoga et travailler au renforcement du corps et de l'esprit.
Au bout d'une semaine j'ai effectué une belle progression et j'ai envie de continuer à pratiquer le yoga. Inès explique explique bien les exercices demandés, elle nous corrige et est disponible pour répondre à toutes nos questions.
Je recommande à tous cette semaine yoga, que vous soyez débutants ou non.
From Love : Inès, thank you so much for this super week of yoga, we have made a lot of progress as you had promised during our 1st class and we go back home with a sense of accomplishment. I highly recommend to anyone who wishes to discover what is Yoga to take this retreat and be sure to be back with a improved level of Yoga practice ! Plus Marrakech is a wonderful place to visit !

"Séjour exceptionnel"
Le lieu est extrêmement reposant, les suites sont spacieuses, climatisées et propres. La salle de bain est superbe. La structure est encore plus belle que sur les photos. Le personnel est aux petits soins, d’une gentillesse incroyable. Les repas sont cuisinés sur place avec des produits frais et savoureux. Petit déjeuner très complet servi après le cours de 9h-10h30, jus frais. Les cours de yoga sont progressifs ce qui permet d’être toujours disponible pour la session suivante. Ils se font dehors dès que possible et sont d’une grande qualité. 2 x 1h30 par jour (parfois plus longs fonction du thème abordé), de quoi redécouvrir ses capacités et apprendre énormément. Tout est fait pour profiter d’une véritable coupure dans le quotidien, dans le calme et la bienveillance. Cours de cuisine et massages sur place, très agréables. Je voulais un lieu avec peu de monde, où non seulement je pouvais faire du yoga mais où je pouvais aussi bien manger et me détendre sans être dans un groupe, c’est tout à fait réussi !
Merci à tous pour votre patience et votre gentillesse.

My time at the Kasbah Du Toubkal and with Perumal Koshy was pure tranquility. From the moment I arrived, the staff where so accommodating and always on hand if I needed anything. Perumal greeted me with a very warm welcome and told me about the few days of yoga to come. I had started my practice of yoga about two years ago and only really doing Ashtanga I was a bit on edge to try a different style., but I can say after my few days with Perumal his approach to yoga and his method have made me a stronger person. the difference in my practice at the end of the week was amazing. I would highly recommend both the yoga and the accommodation for anyone looking to escape life for a few days, pure tranquility.
