Inès taught in Paris studios for eight years before deciding she preferred teaching where the floor was a beach, a desert or a pine terrace. Her classes are slow, precise and full of practical anatomy.

She designs the movement on all our wellness retreats, and adapts every session to the day's walking.

Maren spent ten years producing documentaries in remote places before she noticed that the crews always came home calmer than they left. She started Stillwild in 2016 with one desert retreat and eight guests, four of whom still come back every year.

She leads our silent and breath-based retreats, and still cooks the first breakfast of every Desert Silence herself.
