What is Goat Yoga?
Goat Yoga, simply put, is Yoga with Goats- but its actually much more than that. Here at Arizona Goat Yoga, we dont have any ordinary goats, we have legit specially trained yoga goats. These goats and alpacas were featured on Americas Got Talent, and actually WON Nickelodeon’s talent show, “Unleashed”. They are trained to jump, go under, and interact, snuggle, and play with you during basic yoga poses the entire time. . . and they love it! This is the only pet show you are a part of! YOU are their obstacles! You might be handed a fish to throw to a Sea Lion, but they dont let you in with the Sea Lion. Here at Arizona Goat Yoga, we do! So dive on in at see what all your friends are talking about!
How did Goat Yoga start?
Goat Yoga started in 2015, in Gilbert Arizona! April Gould was featured as Arizona’s famous goat farmer on American Ninja Warrior, competing on season 7 and 9. She used her goats as training partners by putting them on her back during various exercises and yoga poses. At the same time, Sarah Williams was teaching paddleboard yoga and wanted to do something different during the cooler months. Knowing April had extraordinary acrobatic goats, the concept of combining yoga with goats naturally came to be. We since have been on other television shows, such as The Amazing Race, spreading goat yoga across the world. We have enjoyed watching goat yoga grow in popularity and inspire others to spread joy and happiness through the love of goats. You can learn more about us here.
We just live by the motto: “There’s no such thing as a dumb idea”.

A sign from heaven
"My dad is currently dying and as a child we would always go to visit my moms parents in Madison, Wi. Me and my three siblings would have a contest growing up to see who saw the Weinermobile first. Because my dad is dying I have been asking my mom who has already passed to send me a sign. I asked her to send the Weinermobile because that is her sign. I have asked her every day for the last few weeks to send that sign so I would know she would be there to greet my dad when he dies. This morning I got your email for your goat yoga class. I signed up immediately. I hope I can get a picture with the mobile so I can tell my dad."

A healing experience
"I wanted to tell you guys something I couldn't quite share on my review. Doing the goat yoga on Saturday meant more to me than you know. About 10 weeks ago, I took a bad fall off my bicycle (with a helmet). I landed in the hospital with some brain bleeding and a skull fracture. I couldn't teach for 3 weeks and still haven't been the same. Especially emotionally- I've been so depressed. But on Saturday, I felt like my old self. It was incredible- I couldn't stop laughing, smiling, and I nearly cried from feeling a glimpse of what I was like before my accident. Thank you ladies for what you do and all the work you put into training these Goat babies. It meant more to me than words can describe."

Love at first sight
"Goat Yoga connected me to the love of my life! My husband and I were set up on a blind date by my friend and her boyfriend at the time. We planned on going to Goat Yoga that next morning, but my friend suddenly felt ill and no longer could go. We decided to keep the date, even though we had never met. It was awkward at first, but the cute goats running around in costumes helped "break the ice". The instructor was so funny, and we couldnt stop laughing. We ended up having such a great time together, that we extended the date through that evening. We have been together ever since, and have gone back many times! Thank you Arizona Goat Yoga for such a fun first date!"
