Frequently Asked Questions

• Do I need to bring my own yoga mat?

Yes and No, we can supply yoga mats that we disinfect before and after every use but we charge a rental fee of $3. You are welcome to bring your own, just know that accidents do happen when you're around baby goats. 

• Are there hand-washing stations or hand-sanitizer provided?

Yes, we will have plenty of hand-sanitizer.

• Are there refunds?

Yes, but you must cancel before 24 hours before the class. If you fail to do so or are a “No-Show” you forfeit your booking fee. No other refunds will be given unless it is due to weather and you could not reschedule with us. 

• What type of yoga do you do in this class?

It is an all-skills level Hatha yoga class. The class will focus on breathing and relaxing your mind. There will be a mixture of beginner or expert yoga positions. However, our Instructor is trained to help you and you are never forced to try a yoga position. The goats will be mingling with you as you do yoga. Sometimes they will jump on you, cuddle up next to you, or just beg for pets. 

• Do I have to participate in the yoga part of the class?

No, some people just like to come and sit and cuddle with the goats, but this is a yoga class. We will have other events in the future that will be friendly to every age and won't be a yoga class. Feel free to contact us if you have event ideas or want to book a private event. 

• Can I bring family or friends to watch?

No, they would need to pay for a class. We have limited parking and space that needs to be given directly to the class and clients. If you have a special request, are an adult bringing minors but not participating, or arrange with us ahead of time, we might be able to accommodate your request. 

• What breed of goats are they?

They are Nigerian dwarves. These goats are the perfect size for goat yoga. Also, we just love everything about them!

• How long is the class?

The yoga portion of the class will be 35-40 minutes. The goats will also be mingling the entire time, but we give a 20 minute wind-down and time to really get to know our goats!

• Will I get pooped on?

We hope not! However, goats can’t really control when they have to go “#2.” You can usually tell when they are about to urinate and they are pretty good about controlling that appropriately. You could possibly find some pellets around. Should they land on or around you, they are round pellets that easily roll off and we will have someone with a broom ready at all times!

• Do you force the goats to participate?

No. The goats are not forced to stand on your back or do tricks. Our classes are not a required performance for them. The goats genuinely just prefer to be by humans and all they really want is to be pet and receive affection.

• Is this a form of Animal-Assisted therapy?

Yes. The focus of this class is not just to take pictures for Instagram. The focus is to combine nature, goats and yoga in order to disconnect with the stresses of life. Combining those three things is very therapeutic and works as a happy distraction from whatever you may be going through, whether that be depression, stress, disease, disabilities or anything.

• Do you do private classes?

Yes, please contact us for more information!

• Do you do any other events?

Right now we are just focusing on goat yoga, but as the business grows we will expand the events we have. We plan to do charity events, kid-friendly events, and other community events. If you have any information or questions about community events please contact us! We are open to discussing events where we bring the goats.

• Can (human) kids come to goat yoga?

Kids need to be 13 years old to attend a regular event and able to act appropriately and respectfully.
