Manouk is an experienced and inspiring teacher, with a lot of passion and professionalism. My Yoga Teacher Training with Manouk offered me a lot of new insights about myself and the importance of yoga. It has planted the seed for my future career as a yoga teacher. Her truthful sensibility, her strong teaching skills, her authentic honesty, her constant strength, her pure vocation, and her lovely sense of humor are just some of the reasons I’ll recommend you to enroll, without hesitation, to any yoga teacher training, retreat or yoga class with her. Manouk, thank you from the bottom of my heart, you changed my life.

Myself and four friends attended a yoga retreat for several days in NZ where Manouk was one of the lead teachers. She was great, very hands on and approachable. Highly sensitive to everyone’s individual ability. I only wish she lived down the road instead of the other side of the world

Manouk is awesome, she blends a lovely mix of spiritual knowledge with full-body presence and explains the biological shifts occurring which help understand why the moves you are making have an impact, which in turn create a fully present session, every time.

Morning yoga with Manouk is the highlight of my week. She makes every class inspiring with a perfect balance of science and spirituality. She puts so much kindness, creativity and knowledge into every session. I leave every class feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day.

Because of Manouk’s encouragement and wonderful instruction we have made our yoga practice part of our daily routine.

I’m a massage therapist myself and I’m lucky to have found someone who gives me a massage with power, love and compassion. The most important thing; she looks at you as an individual and works with that during the massage. Afterwards, I felt so much lighter and more free in my body. Her character constantly shines through; passionate, full of love, power, and empathy.

“By consistently participating in Manouk’s yoga classes, I have been able to reduce the severe neck and shoulder pain that had been impacting on my health.”

— Jenny H. (Australia, August 2021)

Her ability to read people’s ability or limitation was outstanding. Her patience assisted in people feeling supported by her.

—Lava K. (Australia, May 2018)

As both a yoga teacher and massage therapist, Manouk is patient, considerate and helpful. I’ve never been very good at yoga, but she encouraged me to discover the tranquility of yoga. And I loved Manouk’s massages so much that I bought gift vouchers for all my friends for Christmas.

— Fleurine T. (the Netherlands, December, 2020)

Since experiencing your classes in Panama I have never felt that secure in any other yoga class. Your voice is so calming and I love the fact that you bring so much awareness to our bodies and minds, that you explain the poses so much and that you always tell us it’s about how you feel, not how you look!

— Paulina B. (Germany, March 2021)

Mindfulness sessions with Manouk make you feel you’ve just had an extra two hours of sleep. You feel refreshed, focussed and ready for the rest of the week. I learnt so much that I could apply to my work and personal life to reduce stress and be more present.

— Daphne T. (the Netherlands, March 2021)

I was Manouk's student in a recent Yoga teacher training course, and it was a real pleasure and enrichment to learn from such a passionate teacher. My expectations at the end of this YTTC were largely exceeded and it is in large part thanks to Manouk and her knowledge of yoga (both in terms of postures and in terms of philosophy), physiology, anatomy, biomechanics and particularly the respiratory system. I feel ready to take the plunge and become a Yoga Teacher myself. I will undoubtedly continue to be her student for life.

— Romain G. (France, 2021)

"I had such a special experience attending a yoga retreat this summer in Spain that was led by Manouk. Being a relative newcomer to yoga, I was a bit nervous to do a full retreat, but she put me right at ease after only the first class. She has the most calming voice, and always took the time to explain each pose, while also helping us keep awareness of our minds and body throughout the session. Despite a big difference in experience levels within our group, she led sessions where everyone felt challenged, yet supported. She also has a great sense of humour, and creates a fun environment where you can try and learn new things. I left the retreat feeling refreshed, relaxed and rejuvenated - and it was an experience I will never forget. I can't thank Manouk enough for showing me the benefits of yoga/meditation and inspiring me to bring the practice into my everyday life. Since the retreat, I've followed other yoga classes, but none compare to Manouk's!"

— Claire M. (August 2022)

As an off/off Yogi I have visited different studios and immersed myself into a variety of Yoga. The approach taken by Manouk is truly unique. Her classes are accessible to all, regardless of age or experience -- heads up yoga-professionals, that doesn't mean the classes are easy! A true "buffet-experience" Manouk is able to offer various variations allowing you to participate in all activities. I was thoroughly impressed by her knowledge and felt I was being treated to a powerful blend of ancient knowledge intertwined with the modern. I'm now able to communicate with muscles that have been "stuck in place" for years which absolutely blows my mind.

— Maximillian M. (France, April 2023)

I have been attending Manouk's on line classes for close to 2 years, which is a definite bonus when I met her in France for the Retreat in April 2023. It was like meeting a friend, settling into daily classes quickly and comfortably. Manouk has, what seems to be, endless knowledge & enthusiasm, giving each of us time, space and a listening ear with such calmness, acknowledging never judging. I came home with new respect for the human body and the importance of REST & a daily INVERSION, legs up the wall being my favourite. THANK YOU & see you next year Manouk.
