The G.O.A.T. of Workouts?
Is your workout routine getting a little boring? Or maybe you're looking for a unique experience to give Mom this year? Farm animals to the rescue! No, really! You can strengthen your core and visit hilarious, hoofed creatures with “goat yoga.” We'd heard about it for a long time and finally tried a class. It was an adventure for sure!
HeHe Said: I booked this and then sat and pondered how people come up with these ideas. Somewhere, someone had just finished a yoga class and thought, “That was really nice, but it would be so much better if I had a goat standing on my back.” But kudos to whoever dreamed this up because it was surprisingly fun and hilarious. The class took place in a barn, full of fresh dry hay and surrounded by pine trees. I knew this wasn't going to be a normal yoga class when the instructor introduced herself and explained that we didn't have to do yoga, we could just snuggle goats if we wanted. Next came an adorable, Pamplona-style running of the goats. Twenty to 25 full grown goats came charging into the yoga room from across the barn, eager to get food strategically placed on our mats. We did 30 minutes of the easiest yoga poses you can think of while the goats wandered around eating, snuggling, and climbing on people's backs. We spent the entire hour-long class laughing, petting goats, and in between, holding a few yoga poses. Anyone who is a fan of farms, the outdoors, cute animals, and lastly, yoga, will enjoy this class. Plus, the photos will look great on your Instagram.
