Most people already know what they need. More rest. More space. Less living from their heads. Less pushing through while the body has long been sending different signals.
And yet they keep going.
I recognise that. Not only from the hundreds of participants I have guided over the years. I have been working with yoga, breathwork, self-development and the search for what truly helps people for over 25 years myself. House of InnerPower is built on that recognition. And on the belief that there is another way.
“Coming home to yourself. Finding your inner strength. Living and guiding from a place of inner peace.”

The name
Why InnerPower?
InnerPower stands for the strength that is already present within you. Not something you need to earn or develop. Something you are allowed to feel again.
Everything we do is aimed at helping you with exactly that. Through your body, your breath and your own inner knowing.
Founder
Ilse-Marie Sobering
I have been working with people who want to come home to themselves for over 25 years. My background is broad: Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, breathwork, Qigong, energy work, trauma-sensitive practice, somatic principles and the Taoist philosophy of wu wei.
Everything I offer I have lived, researched and integrated myself. I have also experienced personally what it means to keep going while your body is asking for something else. That is not my weakness. It is at the core of what I understand.
I also developed the Yoga Nidra Radiant Peace Method, my own approach to Yoga Nidra that is now used by teachers around the world.
Over the years I developed the InnerPower Method: LAND • BREATHE • FEEL. A cyclical path back to yourself, in which body, breath and awareness come together.
I have been organising international trainings, retreats and workshops for many years, working alongside a warm network of teachers, coaches, therapists and people from the medical world.
House of InnerPower is CRKBO-registered and Yoga Alliance certified. Not because certifications are the most important thing, but because the quality and safety of what I offer truly matter.
Collaboration
A dedicated team around me
House of InnerPower is not something I run on my own. Jenny supports me as project manager and assistant trainer during the teacher trainings. Noortje is also closely involved. And Tiziana has been our dedicated cook and co-host at the retreats in Spain for many years.
There are also former students who regularly join and contribute, as well as a number of trusted external partners in the fields of coaching, therapy and healthcare.
I also collaborate with other organisations and businesses. Sometimes I offer workshops or trainings at their location. Sometimes we invite each other as guest teachers. That exchange keeps the work alive and extends the reach of what we do.

Retreats
Andalusia, where slowing down comes naturally
For many years I have been organising retreats at El Cañuelo, a beautiful location near Periana in Andalusia. A place that breathes calm. Small, warm and personal. With views of the mountains, a pool, wonderful food by Tiziana and plenty of space to truly slow down.
The retreats combine Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, breathwork, Qigong, meditation and walking in nature. Not as a packed programme that leaves you exhausted, but as a week in which you gradually return to yourself.
Alongside the open retreats, I also run teacher trainings for Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra in Spain. The location and atmosphere make it an experience that stays with participants long after they return home.
Quality & certification
Certified trainings & programmes
House of InnerPower offers officially recognised trainings in Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra and breathwork. The programmes are internationally certified through Yoga Alliance and House of InnerPower is CRKBO-registered.
The trainings are suitable for yoga teachers, coaches, therapists, mindfulness trainers, healthcare professionals and anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of body-based guidance, whether professionally or personally.
All programmes are taught in small groups, live in the Netherlands and Spain, and partly online. Personal guidance and content quality are always at the heart of everything we do.
