I thoroughly enjoyed the Marrakech retreat with Daniela. She is wonderful, relaxed, fun company and I so enjoyed the yoga. Our whole week was well organised and we had very comfortable accommodation with some delicious food. I chose this retreat as it was varied including the option for trekking and horse riding. Our hot air balloon ride was truly wonderful. I highly recommend spending time on one of Daniela’s retreats. You will be very happy that you did!!!!!

I had a wonderful experience with Nella Retreats on their hiking and yoga retreat in Marrakech and Imlil this October. I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful experience! Unexpectedly, I was the only person on the retreat, but everyone went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and welcome. Rather than feeling like I was missing out on a group experience, it felt as though I had booked a very special, personalised retreat just for myself. Nella was incredibly attentive to my wishes and needs, making sure the experience was perfectly tailored to me. We spent a lovely time in Marrakech, including a fantastic guided tour that gave me a great insight into the city. From there, we travelled to the stunning Atlas Mountains around Imlil, where we enjoyed a wonderful combination of yoga and hiking. The programme was perfectly adapted to my abilities and fitness level, allowing me to enjoy every moment. Our mountain guide, Ibrahim, was fantastic. I learned so much from him about the mountains, local culture and life in the Atlas Mountains. The accommodation was lovely, especially in Imlil, where I enjoyed the cosy atmosphere, beautiful mountain surroundings and delicious food. Overall, it was such a special and memorable experience. The combination of nature, movement, culture, warm hospitality and personal attention made this retreat truly unique. I would wholeheartedly recommend Nella Retreats to anyone looking for a thoughtful, authentic and personalised yoga and hiking experience in Morocco. Thank you for such a wonderful time! ❤️

I was completely new to Yin Yoga and initially felt a little apprehensive, as I’m not a yoga teacher and only practise yoga once or twice a week. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Nella made me feel so welcome from the moment I arrived. She created a safe, supportive and relaxing environment where everyone felt comfortable learning at their own pace. Everything had been thoughtfully prepared, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience and develop our Yin Yoga practice with confidence. The food was delicious, the accommodation was lovely, and before long it genuinely started to feel like a home away from home. Thank you again, Nella, for such a wonderful retreat. I left feeling relaxed, inspired and looking forward to continuing my Yin Yoga journey.

Dear Safiyah, Thank you so much for your beautiful words. It truly means the world to me to hear that you felt safe, welcomed, and supported throughout the training. I know it can feel intimidating to join a teacher training without much yoga experience, so I'm especially happy that you trusted yourself and embraced the journey. Watching your confidence grow day by day was such a joy, and your calm, kind energy added so much to our group. Thank you for being part of this beautiful experience and for sharing it with an open heart. I'm so grateful our paths crossed, and I hope Yin Yoga continues to bring you peace, balance, and inspiration wherever life takes you. Sending you a big hug, and I hope to welcome you back again. 🤍

The 13-day Yin Yoga teacher training was an amazing experience on many levels. We gained in-depth knowledge of yin yoga postures, how to structure a yin yoga class, how to guide meditation and various breathing techniques, the chakras, meridians, how to use the sound bowls, etc. etc. Nella made a huge effort into creating special moments for us, with all sorts of little details, whether with a welcome cacao ceremony in the garden, or a graduation ceremony on the rooftop at sunset. She also organized an optional excursion on the weekend in the Atlas Mountains to provide an authentic experience in discovering berbere villages and their inhabitants. The food was simply delicious, varied and plentiful! Mealtimes were the occasion of more informal sharing with Nella who told us about life in Morocco which was extremely interesting. Transfers from airport to training location was very efficient. All was well-organized. I made wonderful friends with the other participants. I highly recommend any type of experience with Nella, whether teacher training, retreat, or other, which will undoubtedly be a very memorable adventure.

Dear Josee, Wow… thank you from the bottom of my heart for this incredibly beautiful and thoughtful review. Reading your words truly touched me. It was such a joy to share these 13 days with you. Seeing the friendships that blossomed, the deep learning, the laughter, and all the special moments we created together is exactly why I love doing what I do. Thank you for embracing every part of the journey—from our cacao ceremony and sunset graduation to our adventure in the Atlas Mountains and all the conversations we shared around the table. Your kindness, openness, and beautiful energy made this training even more special. I'm so grateful our paths crossed and I hope our journey together doesn't end here. Wishing you endless joy, inspiration, and success as you continue sharing Yin Yoga with the world. Sending you the biggest hug and lots of love. 🤍
