Healing space filled with goat hugs and community connection
The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have been heartbreaking, displacing many and leaving our community shaken. We’re grateful to share that our home and animals, including our beloved goats, are safe. Little Felix is still recovering, but we’ve been lending a hand at the Equine Center to support others in need.
To bring comfort during this challenging time, we’re hosting a Community Goat Cuddle event after our upcoming Goat Yoga. It’s been a tough week for so many—whether you’ve lost your home or just felt the stress—and we hope this can be a small moment of connection and healing for everyone. Click link below to sign up.

Help Felix on His Road to Recovery!
This Christmas, our Nigerian Dwarf goat, Felix, faced a serious health crisis. Diagnosed with urinary calculi, a life-threatening condition, Felix underwent emergency surgery on Christmas Eve to remove hundreds of bladder stones. Thanks to the skilled veterinary team and his own resilience, Felix is healing—but his recovery journey is far from over.
Felix is more than just a goat to us. He’s a leader and a protector, always the first to guide his herd across streams or bring back a stray friend. His adventurous and gentle spirit has touched so many lives.
Now, we’re reaching out to our community for help. Felix’s medical bills are significant, and we want to make sure he gets the continued care he needs to return to his happy, active life.
Please consider joining us for a Goat Yoga fundraiser on January 19th in Hollywood, or donating via Venmo. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will make a difference. Thank you so much!

Goat Yoga: Part Exercise, Part Therapy, and All Fun!
Goat Yoga wasn’t planned; it was born from a simple idea on a farm in Oregon in 2016. Lainey Morse, whose goats had helped her through tough times like divorce and depression, casually agreed to a friend’s suggestion to host yoga classes where the goats could roam freely. What started as a fun experiment turned into a nationwide trend, with over 2,300 people on a waitlist to try it.
Unlike traditional yoga, Goat Yoga blends mindfulness and movement with laughter and lightheartedness. Goats add a playful twist—jumping on backs, deepening stretches, and turning a serious practice into a joyful experience.
Six years later, the trend has evolved into a cherished experience offered by dedicated goat lovers who prioritize the animals’ well-being. Goat Yoga isn’t just a workout; it’s a chance to connect with nature, enjoy some laughs, and leave feeling a little lighter. 🐐
