A VERY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT from Stephanie!!!

From the moment I joined In Fine Feather, back in February 2015, it has felt like home. From moving and breathing alongside you all as a student, to working the front desk, to becoming an instructor, and finally becoming the studio accounts manager, I have grown my roots with each and every one of you.

With Helena's flourishing career in the wine industry, and her passion for yoga based events and retreats, she has decided to step away from her role as full-time yoga instructor and studio owner/manager. In Fine Feather is not over, it is being re-imagined.

Stay tuned for all the exciting events and class series Helena will be offering in the Fall/Winter. With this being said, all online classes will end August 28th, 2022. Yoga in the Park classes will remain running for September, and perhaps into October if weather allows. Your IFF class passes and memberships will not be wasted, as I also have some very exciting news.

I am opening HamOnt Yoga, inside of The Move Room, at 327 Ottawa Street North, Unit 216, Hamilton Ontario. I will happily honour all current In Fine Feather class passes and remaining membership days. I am so grateful to be able to bring yoga back to the Ottawa Street North community. Joining me, you will find some of your favourite In Fine Feather teachers including Helena, Andrea, Michelle, Claire, and Jasmine.

Classes begin Tuesday Sept 6th, 2022.

Exclusive to IFF students, I am offering a discount on your first purchase. Use code “INFINEFEATHER” to save $10 off a 10 Class Pass or Unlimited Monthly Membership.

Have some questions? Feel welcome to reach out via email to me (Steph) at [email protected] or give me call
at (905) 902-7833.

We are sooooo excited for you

What an incredible journey for you. Xoxo thank you for all your support over the last few years. Can’t wait to watch you flourish. Love love you.

Have you met Claire? She is our newest instructor to the IFF Team! Join Claire every Thursday Online at 9:00am for Balance & Stability! And how exciting it is that Claire is going to be teaching live from her home in Turks & Caicos!!

Claire was draw to yoga in 2008 as a means of stretching and relieving stress. She quickly discovered that there were many benefits of yoga beyond those. She experienced benefits to mind, body, soul and spirit. In 2015 Claire felt called to deepen her practice and completed her teacher training with Karma Teachers Yoga in Vancouver.

Following completion of the program, she dedicated time to deepen her personal practice to include meditation and breath work. While continuing to work in management roles within the corporate sphere she always had the intention to share the gift of yoga. Claire has always remained a part of the In Fine Feather Community and when given the opportunity to start teaching for In Fine Feather knew it was time to share the gifts that yoga has given to her.

We are so excited to have her on the team.
