ATX Goat Yoga, Austin

The idea first came to life as a fundraising event for the local dog shelter and at that time no one expected that in the future things would get such a crazy twist. It turned out that introducing goats to yoga workouts was an instant hit and the popularity of goat yoga classes skyrocketed immediately. Ever since then these friendly animals have been accompanying students on a daily basis. Now, while students learn strength-building poses and mind-calming breathing techniques playful goatlings bounce, bop, and chew their way over, under, and all around yogis. And don't be surprised when you see other animals living on the ranch, such as potbelly pigs, turkeys, cows, ducks, geese, and even a horse dropping by to help too.
