Goat Yoga Returns to SMC

by Christina De Leon, Graduate Student Assistant | April 16, 2025

With April in bloom on the Saint Mary鈥檚 campus, SMC students had the opportunity to participate in one of the most adorable and relaxing events of the year: our annual Goat Yoga experience on De La Salle Lawn. With the sun shining brightly on April 8, students unrolled their mats for a unique yoga session, surrounded by playful miniature goats eager to join in on the fun.

It was the perfect way to shake off stress, soak up the sunshine, and enjoy the thrill of having a four-legged yoga buddy by your side. The goats stole the spotlight, and students couldn鈥檛 help but smile, letting go of their worries and embracing the pure joy of the moment. 

鈥淎s a senior at Saint Mary's, I was beyond excited to finally try goat yoga this semester! It was one of those fun and unforgettable college experiences I鈥檇 always wanted to check off my list鈥攁nd doing it in my final semester made it even more meaningful. It was such a great way to relax, laugh with friends, and make some amazing memories with goats by my side!鈥
