Boulder’s Unique Library Embraces Goat Yoga CrazeBoulder’s Unique Library Embraces Goat Yoga Craze In a novel twist, Boulder Public Library is introducing a series of goat yoga sessions, blending the tranquility of a library with the playful antics of miniature goats. Starting next month, patrons will have the opportunity to partake in this unconventional form of yoga in the library’s Carnegie Branch. Led by certified yoga instructors, the sessions will combine gentle yoga poses with the companionship of gentle and curious goats. Librarian Alice Jenkins explains, “We wanted to create a fun and engaging experience for our community while promoting wellness and literacy. Goat yoga has gained popularity for its ability to reduce stress and foster a sense of joy.” The tiny goats, from a local animal sanctuary, will be carefully supervised during the sessions. Participants are encouraged to interact with the animals, stroking their soft coats and witnessing their playful antics. “We believe that having these animals in the library will create a unique and memorable atmosphere,” says Jenkins. “It’s a great way to break away from the traditional library experience and connect with our patrons in a different way.” Registration for the goat yoga sessions is currently open to library cardholders. Space is limited, and participants are encouraged to sign up early. The library anticipates that the goat yoga classes will be a popular addition to its programming. “We’re excited to see people of all ages and backgrounds come together for this unique experience,” adds Jenkins. “From avid yogis to animal lovers, there’s something for everyone.” Boulder Public Library remains committed to providing innovative and engaging services that cater to the diverse needs of the community. The goat yoga sessions serve as a testament to its dedication to promoting both physical and emotional well-being.
