Looking to relieve some stress or perhaps some lower back pain? Practicing yoga is said to help with both and oh-so much more. And it’s not a new trend for healing. Yoga has been around since approximately 400 BCE. Look around in the Palmetto State during the spring, summer, and fall seasons and you’ll likely see yoga regularly making its way out of the traditional studio setting into parks, nature preserves, beaches, and even on standup paddle boards floating on a lake’s surface.
But few places combine the meditative and inner core workout with the antics of a tribe of friendly and sweet goats.

In the coming months, yogis from all over will have the opportunity to attend Goat Yoga classes at a farm in Anderson.

For the past few years, Split Creek Farm, a gold medal award winning Grade A goat dairy producing artisan cheeses and goat milk, has teamed up with Anderson Yoga Center to bring Goat Yoga to a soft, grassy field on the farm.

And the results couldn’t be any cuter! The overly friendly goats bring a healing energy to the practice that’s positively engaging. Yogis can find out all about it and sign up for the classes on the Anderson Yoga Center website. (Info for 2020 classes is still forthcoming.)

Classes are offered to everyone on a first-come, first-served basis and participants must register in advance.

If you’re not a yogi or know someone who is and think they’d love to be gifted a Goat Yoga class (or series of classes), then consider giving a Goat Yoga class as a gift. A Mother’s Day Goat Yoga class would be perfect, don’t you think?

Or even a Father’s Day Goat Yoga class. What Dad wouldn’t want to spend time with some adorable little goats? There is even a series of classes called BABY Goat Yoga classes. In case you’re wondering, they are classes that feature baby goats, not classes for infants to do yoga with adult goats.
Facebook/Split Creek Farm
Approximately 350 goats live at Split Creek Farm. The farm shops are open to the public Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
