A lot of fun doing yoga and laughing with the goats! Danielle is a dynamic teacher and very personable. We got to talk after and learn more about the goats, see baby goats, hold small or baby goats, and snap pics of us with the goats on our backs.

Great therapy!!!! You can go alone... or with others! Be prepared to smile... even when the yoga is stretching those muscles with a healthy burn... you can't help but to laugh at the little fury friends walking around! The yoga instructor was amazing and clear... even if you've never done yoga they make it easy for everyone! Extremely well organized, friendly staff...and just overall an incredible way to add laughter and fun to your day!!!Such a great experience... I cannot wait to go again!!!! Thank you goat yoga team!!!!

My family joined me at Goat Yoga Chicago in Elgin to celebrate my birthday. We had 12 people ranging from 10 years old to 69. Everyone had so much fun!! The staff was terrific. The goats were cute. I'm happy to mark one more thing off my bucket list.

We did a private yoga birthday party here for a group of 13 adults. It was totally awesome. The birthday girl described the experience as "the best day of her life" (she really likes goats). Everyone was super friendly throughout the process, and getting every scheduled and paid for was pleasant. On the day of, everyone was super polite, friendly, and helpful. The space is nice and the instructors were engaging and fun. I don't think it was the most challenging yoga in the world, but most of us aren't regular yogis so it was great for our crew.Upon our arrival we were ushered into the studio space, with a brief glimpse of some newborn goats in a little room on the way in. There were a few goats in the studio space as we got signed in and settled. Once we were all there ready to go several more goats came into the space and stayed for the yoga class. They were cute and hilarious throughout the class. There were a few poop incidents that were quickly swept up by our hosts. Afterwards we hung out, met some baby goats, did a little bottle feeding, and took soooo many pictures. The crew was totally cool with helping us get good goat shots.They provide mats, and I recommend taking advantage of their mats as the goats like to poop on everything. No sense in getting goat poop on your fancy yoga mat if you don't need to.All in all it was a really fun experience and well worth the roughly $40 per person that it ended up costing. Great times, great pics, great memories. If it's something you might be interested in, I'd highly recommend checking it out. Even those of us who aren't super into goats or yoga agreed that it was more fun than we'd expected and totally worthwhile, even though we had to drive an hour each way to get here.

My daughter had her 10th birthday with all of her friends earlier this month! What a blast and an experience like no other for these little ladies! The yoga part was so wonderful for the girls and the yoga instructor was super patient with the group! Then add in the goats and the smiles and giggles just made the whole room shine! Danielle and her staff did a great job of making the birthday girl feel so special! The staff helped with set up and clean up of the birthday treats we brought in so swiftly! Danielle and her staff even got better pictures than I got. We were able to share them then on FB which was an extra little bonus! Such a great party! Can’t wait to come back again for a class and some more goat snuggles!

My daughter and I attended a goat yoga session and still laugh when we share the memories. It was fun, relaxing, and a good yoga class! The goats are very healthy and the staff keeps a close eye on them. Also, it means a lot to me that they support the cause for mental health awareness through their business. They offer yoga classes throughout the year for different levels so I am sure I will be back even if the goats aren’t there.

I went here for a bachelorette party here and it was very fun. Light on the yoga but heavy on the goats. The Farm was very clean and staff were very responsive and careful about cleaning up certain natural messes (poop).Very fun! Goats are cool.
