If not for yoga, you could all be visiting me at the State mental institution right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I bought some goat feta cheese from a new vendor at our local farmer&#8217;s market, and noticed&nbsp; the words &#8220;goat yoga&#8221; on their business card.&nbsp; That was enough for me to hop on the Internet and immediately buy a ticket for one of their classes (laughing to the point where the husband and kid wondered what was wrong with me).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve always thought goats are amazing creatures, very curious, friendly (usually), and generally adorable.&nbsp; Especially the ones with floppy ears. No boundaries of personal space, &#8220;in your face.&#8221;&nbsp; I&#8217;ve said for years that I want pack goats. What better way to get to know them than spending an hour attempting yoga with baby goats jumping all over me???<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I spent that hour of goat-yoga laughing, and basically didn&#8217;t stop laughing for the rest of the day. I&#8217;ll admit, there wasn&#8217;t much actual yoga going on, as there was too much laughing and being knocked over or jumped on to really concentrate on down dogs. Avoiding piles of goat poo became an essential skill. Scratching those amazingly soft and floppy ears was the icing on the cake. I think that particular yoga mat will never be used again. Would I do it again? Absolutely!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Links to newspaper articles about this class below the photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2
