Dear Friends,
Today marks the seven-year anniversary since the remarkable and unique India Supera passed away. While I feel deep sadness remembering as she let out her last breath, no longer there for us to hug or talk with, I also feel resounding gratitude for all the love and life she gave to me as my mother and for her legacy of kindness and support she gave to those who knew her and beyond. She was a true visionary, a woman who saw the limitless potential and goodness in people and who didn’t let practicality get in the way of trying to do great things. As founder of Feathered Pipe she helped create a center and community that continues to bring meaning and purpose to the world. This storytime recorded by Erich Schiffmann at the Ranch in 2016 is a fun way to see and remember her.
Thanks to the groundwork India along with many others laid along the way and our current dedicated team, we’ve been able to keep Feathered Pipe vibrant and relevant. The love and energy keep pouring in and the Ranch serves as a beautiful sanctuary of healing and consciousness. Thank you for another amazing season at Feathered Pipe! This summer saw the biggest number of workshop attendants to date. As we are busy tucking the facilities in for the winter, we are excited to announce that Registrations are now open for our 2027 Retreat Season at Feathered Pipe Ranch.

2027 Scholarships
If you are interested in applying for a scholarship for an applicable 2027 workshop, the application period will open in February 2027. Please visit our Scholarship page in the meantime to learn more about the program. Also if you are hoping to get a scholarship, remember to wait to register till after you receive the scholarship as they can not be retroactively applied to a workshop for which you are already registered.
We aim to award at least $60,000 in scholarships in 2027. For those who would like to help support the program, please consider a donation. The Scholarship Program truly makes a long-lasting difference in peoples’ lives.
Free Online Offerings
While the Ranch itself is hibernating leading up into next season, there are many ways to stay in touch with us and the Feathered Pipe Community. In addition to our social media and newsletters, we offer free access to a wealth of information, connection, and classes.
Voices of Feathered Pipe Blogs: articles with timeless information written by some of the leading teachers in yoga, mindfulness, and consciousness.
Community Forum: the best way to see current events, of what is happening at the Ranch (without having to wade through a sea of ads on the social media platforms), and a connection point to other retreat participants for the upcoming season to coordinate rideshares or meet ahead of time.
Main Hall Series Zoom Classes: launched in 2026, the Main Hall Series lets you experience free live classes with teachers from the upcoming season at the Ranch! If you don’t have a chance to join live, past classes are posted on our website, free to watch at your convenience. We will start the 2027 live classes in January.
Save the Date
Feathered Pipe’s Annual LOVEfest and FUNdraiser will be Sunday, December 13, 2026 on Zoom. Hope to see you there.
With love and gratitude,
