Can you imagine not having fun when you’re hanging out with a group of goats? Goats all have their own unique personalities – from shy to rambunctious. They also make the perfect yoga partners. Yep, you read that right. When you take a goat yoga class in Missouri, you’ll be joined by the farm’s resident goats. That, however, is just the beginning of the fun.
Goat yoga has caught fire at farms all across the United States, and now you can try it out, too, at Goat Yoga of Missouri, tucked on a picturesque farm in Columbia.
Make furry friends for life when you arrive at the farm for your goat yoga session. As you work out on your mats, the goats will mill around. You might even be one of the lucky ones to have a goat climb on you.
If you’ve never been around goats before, you’re in for a real treat. Most are outgoing and friendly animals who just want to hang out around you. Don’t be too surprised, however, if a goat nibbles on your clothes or leaves a small poop pellet on your mat.
Yoga classes are designed for guests eight and older. If you’d rather just sit back and hang out with the goats, instead of doing yoga, you can do that, too.
Your yoga session, which lasts between 35 and 45 minutes, is just the beginning of the fun. For an hour afterward, you’ll get to hang out for the “Goat Happy Hour.”
If you’ve been dealing with a lot of stress or are having a rough time, you’ll discover that spending time with the goats lets you relax and forget your worries for a while.
