Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Arrive up to 30 minutes before your scheduled class to check in, set up your mat, and meet the goats before the yoga begins.
- Wear a shirt that covers your back to protect it from goat hooves, and remove any loose jewelry before participating.
- Consider bringing a full-sized towel to place over your yoga mat, as the goats may 'autograph' it with their droppings.
- Be prepared for the goats' natural behavior; they are vegan and their droppings are scent-free, but they may nibble or climb on things.
- Ensure you meet the minimum weight requirement of 65 lbs and that any minor participants are accompanied by an adult who can sign the waiver.
