Operated by Goat Yoga RVA at Pactamere Farm · Glen Allen, Virginia
Glen Allen, Virginia, is home to an unforgettable outdoor activity that rewrites the traditional yoga experience for families—the Kids + Kids Goat Yoga at Goat Yoga RVA at Pactamere Farm. This unique offering combines gentle yoga flows with the joyful energy of farm goats, designed especially for children under 10 and their parents. Set on a working farm just outside Richmond, this hour-long session stirs imagination, encourages movement, and invites wholesome connection between kids, parents, and nature’s most playful farm residents.
Goat Yoga RVA’s Kids Goat Yoga is a parent-and-child paired event led by a certified instructor. The class kicks off with a 30-minute guided yoga sequence tailored for young children who are comfortable with animals and ready to engage in fun, mindful stretching and balance movements. Following movement is an equally important playtime session where kids cuddle and interact directly with the goats, fostering a tactile, engaging farm experience. This session not only introduces children to yoga fundamentals but also builds confidence and empathy through animal interaction.
Hosted at Pactamere Farm, a family-run farm at 15577 Stone Horse Creek Rd., the setting offers fresh air and a rustic backdrop, with goats as the standout guests. The covered, weather-protected pavilion makes the yoga class a year-round destination—even in colder months—while maintaining a clean, safe environment for kids and goats alike. This farm-based experience rises above standard children’s activities by offering a meaningful, sensory-rich adventure that blends gentle physical activity with the charm of animal companionship.
The business itself is a rare find in the Richmond region, merging outdoor recreation, family wellness, and agritourism. Beyond the class, visitors can meet other farm animals and enjoy farm-fresh snacks, making it a wholesome day trip or weekend outing. With its focus on safety, education, and fun, Goat Yoga RVA's Kids Goat Yoga adds a playful edge to outdoor family adventures in Virginia’s countryside. For parents seeking mindful movement blended with rustic farm charm, this is a stand-out local experience not to miss.
