Shenanigoats Yoga at The Old School Farm {Nashville Pet Photographer}

I can't believe it's been almost a year since I first photographed a goat yoga class for Shenanigoats Yoga! They've had a lot of interest in their first year and are growing like crazy, so happy birthday, Shananigoats!

This time, I photographed one of their classes at a great wedding venue only ten minutes from Nashville called The Old School Farm. Not only do they have an amazing farm-to-table restaurant that serves seasonal items they grow themselves, they also just built a barn event space that is perfect for weddings -especially since great food is already available on-site! They support local farmers while encouraging sustainable and bio-dynamic agriculture, and do a lot to give back to others in the area. 

 If you didn't already know, goats can be extremely fun in a yoga class. They'll bounce, jump, climb onto your back and of course provide tons of laughs along the way. Just keep in mind that it's 80% goats and 20% yoga when you arrive! Take a look at the photos from last year's goat yoga class, or visit the Shenanigoats website to sign up for an upcoming class! I promise you won't regret it.

Shenanigoats Yoga {Nashville Pet Photographer}

If you've ever considered trying yoga and haven't found the right opportunity yet, this week's blog is for you!

I had an absolute blast taking photos for a goat yoga class last weekend at Shenanigoats Yoga! And no, the class isn't for teaching yoga to goats, but it does involve doing yoga while hanging out with the sweetest goat babies you've ever seen. 

Although everyone loved them all, Mac, a 12-day-old goat, was the biggest star of the class. Goats are extremely fun animals to be around. They bounce, jump, eat leaves and they made the yogis in the class happy (and more than a little distracted in the best way). 

Shenanigoats originally started with Shenanigoat Landscaping, a goat grazing lawn service right here in Nashville. After becoming interested in the possibilities of combining a yoga class with their friendly baby goats, they decided to give it a try. And I'm so glad they did!

**And the week after I photographed the class I was able to attend and had my own experience with baby goats on my back in downward dog & plank. Let me just tell you, it's the best way to do yoga!
