You may be part of a larger community and interact with individuals who share your interests. Making you believe "you can do this even though the world is trying to stop you" will be our greatest achievement.
Her father, Dr. Rudolph Stephan was not only architect and engineer, but also a sportsman and a family man. He challenged Ines to do pranayama breathing while viewing the sunset as a way to get her started with yoga. The genuine discovery of yoga's therapeutic properties was made when an Iranian medical expert advised two yoga poses to cure a kidney problem. It took no medicine or anticipated dialysis to get her kidneys back to working properly. Yoga was born out of this therapeutic experience.
After 20 years of practice, Ines travelled to India to train with Anto Antony, 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 2010, Ines founded the Morocco Yoga Retreat with Perumal. 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.
Women's empowerment retreat organizations in Morocco noticed Yoga retreat with Perumal approach when she was teaching yoga in Marrakech. Those who know her describe her as empathetic, mature, and kind.
