Never trust a goat

Have you ever had a goat walk all over your butt? I’ yoga as a raoat tramples his little hooves all over my body?

I’d never even heard of goat yoga until a few days ago when er and these unusual workouts are her job to find and test out Poppi and I are the ones she ropes into co so she can document the fun ‘It’s all for the sake of a healthier lifestyle,’ she said as we entered the barn-like yoga studio earlier today

That state No, not like Jesus This exercise involved being inserted into a human-sized hamster ball and rolled down the sandy shore into the water Apparently, if you do it right, it’s great for the abs If you do it wrong, like me, prepare to be rescued before you drift away

Then, there was the Thug Workout debacle which took place outdoors with things like picnic tables and telephone poles as the workout equipment I wasn’t happy about the splinters in my hand

Lola’s followers love reading about this stuff There’s nothing wrong anting to be adventurous while working out, but there’s a fine line between adventure and just plain silly

And maybe this is it

I’a class where it hasn’t benefitedyourself into the shape of a pretzel and then thinking, ‘You knohat this also needs? Goats Lots of little goats ju all over us’

Yoga with Goats Goga? Goga on Super creative title, I know You’re welcome

“I’ot to third base,” I whisper to Lola, trying to keep a pose in check

“Focus,” Lola whispers back, extending her arms forward on the blue mat “Feel the serenity”

I blow out a breath, as a sandpaper tongue licks my heel, and attempt to relax This is supposed to be a serene space Soft a teacher is the epitome of tranquility Her name is Flower, I kid you not, and she has her purple hair piled into a wicked knot on top of her head Other yogis would be jealous

“Close your eyes and work through the movements,” Flower purrs fro pose and don’t lose your goat” Flower gives a sideways glance at Poppi whose goat took off long ago and is now nibbling on a potted plant on the opposite side of the room

“I don’t thinkan escaped strand of auburn hair behind her ear “And ya know, I’m not sure I mind”
