About

Puppy yoga is a gentle yoga class conducted in a space filled with adorable, playful puppies. While you move through a series of calming poses, puppies are free to roam around, cuddle, and even "help" with your stretches. It’s a multi-sensory experience that combines the physical and mental benefits of yoga with the scientifically-proven stress-reducing power of animal interaction.

Our classes are suitable for all levels, from complete beginners to experienced yogis. The focus isn't on achieving the perfect pose, but on enjoying the moment and connecting with these furry little friends.

Not at all! Our classes are designed to be accessible and fun for all levels, from beginners to experienced yogis. The focus is on a gentle, relaxing flow and a joyful experience with the puppies.

At Yogi Paws, we prioritise the safety and well-being of both our puppies and our customers. For this reason, we work with ethical, registered breeders who specialise in raising and training puppies to be well socialised and comfortable in new environments. While we have deep compassion for rescued animals, their individual journeys and previous experiences can sometimes make them unpredictable or easily stressed in a group setting. For the safety of everyone, we've chosen to source our puppies from a registered breeder who trains and hand-selects the most social puppies for our classes. Even so, we are committed to supporting this cause and will donate $2 from every ticket sold directly to our chosen pet rescue organisation, Paws A Moment & Rescue, to help with their ongoing efforts.

Yogi Paws is passionate about supporting rescued animals. We believe every animal deserves a loving home and are committed to helping those in need. For this reason, we will donate $2.00 from every ticket sale to our chosen pet rescue organisation, Paws A Moment & Rescue, to help them with their ongoing efforts.

Stress Relief & Mood Boost: This is the big one. The simple act of interacting with animals has been scientifically proven to lower cortisol (the stress hormone) and release oxytocin (the "love hormone"). Combine that with the mindful movement and breath work of yoga, and you have a powerful recipe for melting away stress and boosting your mood. It's a joyful escape from the daily grind.

Mental Health Benefits: Beyond just feeling happy, puppy yoga can help reduce feelings of loneliness and anxiety. It's a unique and fun way to connect with others and, of course, with the puppies themselves.

A Gentle Workout: While you might not be doing a super intense flow, you'll still get the physical benefits of a gentle yoga session, including improved flexibility, balance, and strength. The playful distractions from the puppies often make the workout feel effortless and fun.

Pure Fun: Let's be honest, it's impossible to stay serious or stressed when there's a puppy trying to nibble on your toes or curl up on your mat. The experience is full of laughter, smiles, and heartwarming moments.

Puppy yoga is perfect for anyone seeking a unique way to de-stress and find joy. It's a great fit for animal lovers who cannot own a pet, offering a much needed dose of puppy cuddles and play. It's also an ideal, low-pressure introduction to yoga for beginners and a memorable activity for friends and couples looking for a heartwarming experience. You can easily do it by yourself for some much needed "me time," or enjoy it as a fun group outing to celebrate a birthday, reconnect with friends, or simply create lasting memories with family. Think of it as a joyful alternative or addition to your weekly routine like a trip to the gym or your usual yoga class that provides a healthy dose of both mindful movement and pure, unconditional puppy love.

For your safety and well-being, we strongly recommend you consult with your doctor before participating.

Yoga involves physical activity, and our classes include interaction with live puppies, both of which carry some risk. Please listen to your body and feel free to modify poses or rest at any time.
