ABOUT PUPPY YOGA


Puppy yoga combines the calming effects of yoga with the joyful presence of puppies. Each class is one hour long, where participants flow through gentle yoga poses while puppies freely roam the room. The practice stays close to the floor, allowing for easy engagement with the puppies, making the experience both relaxing and playful.

These classes are beginner-friendly, requiring no prior yoga experience. The low-intensity poses ensure that participants can easily bond with the puppies while still benefiting from the physical and mental aspects of yoga.

Every session ends with a dedicated relaxation time, allowing time for playing, cuddling + photos with the puppies.

"My daughters and I had such a wonderful time at Saint John Puppy Yoga, the yoga class was ideal for all age and skill levels and the puppies made their rounds so everyone had special time - the wonderful coordinator even brought over a puppy if they had not been in a particular area so everyone got up close with them. It was a highlight of the year for us, I highly recommend it!"
