About us

VERITY Movement & Wellness was established in 2024 with a vision to create a space where the Kincardine community could come to move, connect, and feel at home in their bodies.

At VERITY, we are more than a studio — we are a community where every person is seen, accepted, and truly belongs. We offer a dynamic spectrum of movement, from yoga to mat and reformer pilates to strength-based classes, designed to help you listen to your body, feel good in your body, and build real strength with confidence.

We are committed to creating a supportive and safe environment where individuals can explore, grow, and challenge themselves. Here, movement is not about perfection — it’s about showing up, trusting yourself, and enjoying the process.

With a balance of high-energy, empowering classes and grounding, restorative experiences, VERITY is a space you can rely on — rooted in consistency, integrity, and trust. Our goal is to help you cultivate a lasting sense of pride in how you move, grow, and show up for yourself and your community.

  • Nicole Rae Ireland

    CO-FOUNDER

    Nicole is a 200-hour certified yoga instructor and certified fitness instructor and the creative director behind Stilara, here in downtown Kincardine.

    She started her teaching journey with yoga at VERITY and has since grown deeply passionate about fitness. You’ll now find her leading Sculpt & Tone, Mat Pilates, and Tabata classes — bringing energy, strength, and a supportive push to every class she teaches.

    When she’s not at the studio, Nicole is immersed in creativity — from curating Stilara to thrifting, decorating, and hosting hands-on workshops. She believes in the power of both movement and creativity to help people feel more connected, confident, and inspired.

  • Jennifer May

    CO-FOUNDER

    Jennifer is a 500-hour certified yoga teacher, certified Breathwork Instructor, and a certified Pilates Reformer instructor. She is currently continuing her education as she works toward completing her Mat Pilates certification. Yoga was her first passion in movement—a practice that opened the door to deeper self-awareness, presence, and healing. Her more recent journey into Pilates has added a new layer of strength, alignment, and resilience to her movement practice, inspiring her to help others discover the empowering connection between mind, body, and breath.

    In both Yoga and Pilates, Jennifer creates space for students to explore movement with curiosity and compassion. Her classes are rooted in conscious breathwork and intentional movement, often accompanied by thoughtfully curated music that brings an uplifting, motivating energy to the room.

    Jennifer’s goal is to guide her students back to themselves—back to a place of awareness, strength, and presence.

“I had the pleasure of experiencing HIIT pilates and power yoga with Christina at Verity. HIIT pilates is packed with cardio, and power yoga is truly powerful!”
