The first two weeks of November are traditionally a time when deer pose a greater danger on the roads.
We would like to remind drivers to:
• Be alert for "deer crossing" signs
• Remain vigilant for animals during feeding times - from dusk to dawn
• Exercise caution on roads near forests and bodies of water
• Be on the lookout for herds - if you spot one, there are likely more nearby
• Maintain a reasonable speed
• Apply the brakes when necessary
• Stay in control of your vehicle and avoid swerving out of your lane
• Always wear your seatbelt

Join us at Double Durango Farm in Loganville, GA for an hour of beginner friendly yoga with goats.
The friendly Nigerian Dwarf goats on Double Durango Farm are playful and sweet.

Follow along during yoga class or just sit and play with a goat.

This is a fun event open to everyone ages 7 and up, even if you’ve never done yoga.
You’re welcome to take pictures during and after class.

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Weather: If there’s rain, class will take place in the indoor yoga barn. Otherwise, class is outside.

 

Event Location: The address for Double Durango Farm will be emailed only to registered students.

 

Minimum Age: 7 and up, and children should be able to mostly stay on their mat.

 

Public Restrooms: There is one portable toilet (porta pot) available for your use on the farm.

 

Cancellations: No refunds will be given. If a cancellation is necessary, you will have a credit towards a future goat yoga class.

 

Arrival Time: Class begins promptly! Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in and set up your mat.

The $5 fee will be paid directly to Double Durango Farm on the day of the event.
Other Items to Bring/Clothing: Wear comfortable clothing you don’t mind getting dirty or a goat nibbling.

Consider braiding long hair or wearing a ponytail or bun. You can bring water.

Sunscreen and bug spray might be necessary, and your phone can be used for taking pictures.
What Not to Bring: Leave the jewelry at home since goats like it and want to eat it.

Goat Accidents: It does occasionally happen, but goat poop are pellets which brush away easily.

We will have wipes on hand “just in case” plus you can bring a small towel if you’d like.
