Heated Yoga Studio Opens in Hantsport as Cafe and Gallery Plans Are Reported

Current assessment: The available evidence supports the conclusion that a new heated-yoga offering is operating at 20 Main St. in Hantsport, Nova Scotia. A September 28 SaltWire report says Gaspereau residents Tammy MacLeod and Brian Hotson are developing the former town hall property as a yoga, cafe and gallery destination. Infinity Yoga, Movement & Dance’s own website independently confirms its Hantsport address and lists both heated and non-heated yoga programming. The evidence is less complete on the associated cafe and gallery: no official page reviewed for this draft confirms their opening date or current operating status.

Reported facts

SaltWire reported that MacLeod and Hotson are transforming the former town hall building at 20 Main St. into a multipurpose space. According to the report, Infinity Yoga, Movement & Dance opened in September 2026 and Hotson was preparing a separate venture, The Rooms Cafe and Gallery.

Infinity’s official website identifies its location as 20 Main St., Hantsport, and advertises heated and non-heated yoga, Pilates, mobility and strength work, dance, and meditation. Its newcomer information page specifically lists Hot Power Flow and Hot Pilates, describes the heated-room range as 90–100°F for hot classes, and states that the studio occupies the lower floor of the building.

Supporting evidence

The studio’s own website is the strongest available confirmation of the yoga-business component because it provides a current address, class offerings and operational details. Those details are consistent with the central local-news report’s account of a yoga venue at the same property.

Additional background supports the identification of Brian Hotson as a Gaspereau-based visual artist. His official artist website lists Gaspereau, Nova Scotia, as his location, while Visual Arts Nova Scotia also describes him as an artist living there. That evidence is consistent with, but does not by itself verify, the reported gallery venture.

Limitations and competing evidence

The key limitation is attribution. The reported cafe-and-gallery plan comes from SaltWire’s September 28 coverage; the original report was not directly accessible during this review. An indexed summary of that reporting repeats the account, but it is not a substitute for the original reporting or a statement from the businesses involved.

Infinity’s official materials do not state a precise opening day, name MacLeod as proprietor, or mention The Rooms Cafe and Gallery. Likewise, the materials reviewed do not establish whether the cafe and gallery have opened, are under construction, or have a scheduled launch date. The available record also does not independently verify the description of the property as a former town hall.

Current conclusion

The strongest supportable account is that Infinity Yoga, Movement & Dance is now operating a heated-yoga program at 20 Main St. in Hantsport, while a cafe-and-gallery component at the property has been reported but is not yet independently documented in the sources reviewed. This supports a cautious studio-opening story, not a definitive announcement that the full yoga-cafe-gallery concept is open. Direct confirmation of the cafe and gallery’s status, along with the studio’s exact launch date, would materially strengthen the report.
