Yoga Retreat Morocco Co-Founder & Teacher
Ines Johanna Stephan, a Marrakech based Yoga Teacher and reputed yoga retreat Marrakech teacher, has balanced a 45-year yoga practice with a successful 36-year career as a pioneering female TV commercial producer. Introduced to yoga by her father, an athlete, Ines excelled in sports like badminton and downhill skiing. Inspired by Sri Tiramulai Krishnamacharya, André van Lysebeth, Gabriella Cella Al-Chamali, Swami Sivananda Saraswati and Swami Satyananda Saraswati, her yoga studies became a lifelong pursuit. Yoga provided her with strength and balance amidst the pressures of a demanding advertising production career, where colleagues often noticed her surrounded by yoga books and studies, reflecting her dedication to forging her unique yoga path.
After 20 years of practice, Ines travelled to India to learn from a traditional Hatha Yoga instructor in Kerala. Anto Antony invited her to his guru's residence far into the jungle. With the guidance of a traditional teacher, her knowledge of yoga became stronger. Having a connection with a spiritually-inclined person enhanced her yoga practice, as well.
Miss Stephan draws deep inspiration from the teachings and interpretations of yoga science by Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya and his son, T.K.V. Desikachar. She integrates the scientific foundations of modern yoga—rooted in anatomy, physiology, and psychology—into her practice. During her Morocco yoga retreat, Ines conveys this approach alongside the Yoga with Perumal Synergistic Yoga Retreat Method , offering her students a comprehensive and transformative yoga experience.
In 2008, Ines began practicing yoga with Perumal, and in 2009, she produced 30 online Yoga with Perumal video courses, marking the start of their cooperation. In 2009, Ines founded the YwP llc with Perumal Koshy. Her extensive film industry network helped create Desert Yoga Retreats and Fat E Bike Travel. After gaining experience teaching retreats, Ines transitioned to a solo teaching role while maintaining a close relationship with Perumal. Over their ten years of collaboration, they have worked together with enthusiasm and dedication, and Ines remains committed to her Yoga with Perumal retreats with a strong work ethic.
