Retreats & Workshops

Ways to retreat yourself, be guided and learn.

Retreats and workshops are chances for you to share deep transformational moments with teachers and other students. I offer several events in Portugal and other parts of the world, from relaxing yoga retreats to various trainings.

Hands-on: Die Kunst des Berührens

Studio Zehlendorf, Berlin | 12th-14th July 2024

Monja Mani and Kai Ribereau

Erlerne mit Kai Ribéreau und Monja Mani die Kunst,  „Hands-on Assists“ zu geben und dabei die Biomechanik deines eigenen Körpers zu verstehen.

Kai und Monja führen dich an diesem Wochenende mit verschiedenen Techniken und ihrer jahrelangen Erfahrung als Yogalehrende gekonnt in die besondere Art der Berührung – der Hands-on Assists – im Yoga ein. Es werden die allgemeinen Hands-on Prinzipien und alle Hands-on-Basics wiederholt. Zusammen wird erarbeitet, für wen welche Assists und Adjustments jeweils sinnvoll sind und wie du es u.a. meisterst, im Sonnengruß fließend zu assistieren. Ferner vermitteln Kai und Monja durch Partneryoga- und Thai Yoga Massage-Einheiten, die Kunst und heilende Kraft der Berührung im Yoga.



Retreat

Soft & Wild

Remember your essence as a woman.

Monte Velho, Portugal | 21.10-26.10.2024

Monja Mani and Elena from Rising Rooted

This 6 days, 5 nights retreat is an immersion into the realm of womanhood, for deep connection and ultimate self-love. Find liberation from what keeps you small, while supported by an intimate sisterhood.

Yoga. Women’s circles. Embodiment practices. Sisterhood. Earth-body connection. Sound journeys. Sacred ceremonies. Womb awakening.


  • Going on a retreat with Monja and Katja is a journey to your Self from a place of curiosity, love and deep embrace. The space is gorgeously curated with care and tenderness, allowing you to cry-laugh your way through whatever it is you are looking for or that wants to find you. Their hands-on support and amazing hearts are felt through every aspect of the weekend. I was able to let myself be and cater to all that wanted to be experienced. I left the retreat feeling grounded and empowered since — to meet my personal unfolding openly, truthful and embodied.

  • The atmosphere of the retreat was warm and welcoming and I felt like I was among friends from the moment I arrived. Monja and Katja, with all their immense knowledge of yoga, pregnancy, motherhood and meditation, were so wonderful in guiding me throughout the retreat, I felt incredibly cared for.

  • The Yoga Retreat with Monja and Katja in Portugal is one of my greatest yoga experiences so far! Even though it didn't feel like learning, I was able to take a lot with me for my yoga practice at home. Monja is an absolute professional yoga teacher who knows what she is talking about. The warm, familiar and relaxed atmosphere and the great ambience left a lasting impression on me. So all in all a perfect experience for body, mind and soul! It will definitely not be my last yoga retreat with Monja and Katja!

  • One of the best experiences I've ever had. Outstanding teaching, an incredibly deep and respectful approach to Ashtanga/ Vinyasa practice, along with excellent food and pleasant people make this place truly magical! Thank you for everything!

  • The retreat with Monja and Katja had everything I wished for and more... The atmosphere was incredibly loving and warm, at the same time thoroughly honest and relaxed. The sessions were really the best yoga sessions I've ever had - ever since. Twice during that week I had tears in my eyes with joy and happiness. It doesn't matter if you are a yoga novice or a pro, Monja and Katja will pick you up and give everyone an unforgettable experience.
