Goat Yoga

What is Goat Yoga aka
Yoga with Goats?





Well besides being a breath-taking, smile-inducing fitness trend sweeping the nation since 2016, where you do a slow, Gentle Yoga Class with Christine Riccio - RYT 500 or Tristin Hotaling - RYT 500 and our herd of adorable goats wandering around...
It is different things for different people. It has been described as “calm”, "therapy", “zen", and just plain “happiness.” However, there is one recurrent description…” unexpected.” Unexpected certainly describes goats. Then add in yoga and see what happens.
​
Yoga with Goats is Animal-Assisted Therapy in a natural setting with an unexpectedly (there’s that word again) smart, social, and profoundly cuddly animal. It’s not a cancer cure, but it is an unbelievable distraction from politics, work, stress, sickness, and depression.

​
Yoga with Goats is about disconnecting with day to day life. Some folks claim yoga with goats lowers blood pressure, helps with depression, reduces anxiety, and helps you to focus on positive and happy vibes. It really is next to impossible to stay serious when you see a goat do their little sideways hop or rear up when playing with their herdmates. Goats also induce a calming effect due to their relaxed personalities and gentle ways.
Into The Woods Farm herd has proven themselves as the perfect Goat Yoga ambassadors during their yoga sessions and various public events with children, adults and the elderly during 2016 thru present. They interact in a way that is gentle and engaging without overwhelming you.
We offer 1-2 public classes per month May thru October of a slow, Gentle Goat Yoga class with Christine Riccio - RYT 500 or Tristin Hoatling RYT 500. All classes are 45 minutes-1 hour in length and include 1/2 hour of goat snuggling, mingling and photos. Class price is $35/ person (offsite event prices vary $45-55) advanced purchase required.

What Makes Our Goat Yoga Different
-
At Into The Woods Farm, goat yoga isn’t just a trend—it’s an immersive experience rooted in nature, animal care, and connection. Our goats live freely on acres of forested land, surrounded by their herd mates and doing what goats love most: playing, lounging in the sun, and interacting with people.
-
Natural Environment, Happy Goats
-
Our goats are in their natural element—not in diapers or costumes. While they may wear collars as needed for gentle handling, we believe in allowing goats to simply be goats. They roam, eat, nap, climb platforms, and play at their own pace in a peaceful and enriching setting.
-
No Forced Breeding for Yoga
-
Unlike other goat yoga programs, we do not breed specifically to have "baby goats" (kids) for classes. Our goats are bred responsibly to provide milk for our family, and any kids born are a welcomed bonus—not the focus. All goats are raised with love—either dam-raised (by their mother) or bottle-fed when necessary—and are handled daily by our family and friends to ensure they are friendly and well-socialized.
-
Gentle, Friendly, and Inclusive
-
Our herd includes goats of all ages who are gentle and kind with people of all ages—from toddlers to seniors. Their easygoing temperament makes them ideal companions during yoga and beyond.
