The sauna at Thermea Spa Village Winnipeg is more than a place to sweat—it’s a stage where Ritual Artisans like Quincy Hiebert weave stories through heat, scent, and movement.
This summer, Quincy and her Winnipeg teammates are gearing up for Aufgusshow 2025, the Canadian National Sauna Performance Championship, hosted at Thermea Spa Village Whitby. The stakes are high: a chance to represent Canada at the AUFGUSS-WM world championships in Italy. For Hiebert, a former contemporary ballet dancer turned Aufgussmeister, this is an opportunity to showcase Winnipeg’s unique flair and make her community proud.
