Goat Yoga at Flanders Nature Center's North Barn!

Come stretch, laugh, and cuddle with the Flanders’  goats, for a yoga class unlike any you’ve experienced before!  Goat Yoga is the latest exercise to capture the imaginations and hearts of people everywhere and this is a chance to experience it for yourself!



On Sunday, June 24th, Jennifer Hotchkiss, an experienced yoga instructor,  will be leading this one-hour gentle yoga class which is suitable for all levels. Adorable Nigerian dwarf goats will be frolicking & cuddling with guests as they flow through the outdoor class at the picturesque Flanders farm.

Participants should keep in mind that they’ll be practicing with live animals and some degree of messiness (and a LOT of silliness) may be involved so they should dress accordingly, wearing comfortable clothes and bringing along a yoga mat or towel.
The program will begin at 10AM and be held at the Flanders North Barn which is located at 644 Flanders Road in Woodbury just beyond the intersection of Flanders and Church Hill Road. The cost is $20 for members and $25 for non-members for adults and $10 for ages 15 and under accompanied by an adult. In event of rain, the class will be held inside the barn. Proceeds will go to the farming program. Space is limited and those interested need to register online at www.flandersnaturecenter.org or call 203-263-3711, ext. 10, for more information.
