Goat Yoga at Ancient City Brewing
***THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED AND RESCHEDULED FOR JANUARY (STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES)***
ST. AUGUSTINE, Florida (October 17, 2024) – Stretch out the muscles and calm the soul with a side of silly at Ancient City Brewing’s Goat Yoga, taking place just before the annual Boos and Brews 5k Race and 1-mile Fun Run. Presented in partnership with Zen Hooves, Goat Yoga is from 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm on Saturday, October 26th, at Ancient City Brewing’s Flagship Brewhouse at 3420 Agricultural Center Drive in St. Augustine.
“Yoga and goats, what’s not to love?” asks Britta Messler, General Manager at Ancient City Brewing. “We’ve hosted goat yoga here at the Brewery many times over the years, and it’s always one of our most popular events. This year, we’re pairing it with the Boos and Brews 5k. It’s a great way for our athletes to get mentally and physically loose before they attack their run.”
Goat Yoga with Zen Hooves features a flock of frolicking baby and pygmy goats that are curious and friendly. They roam throughout the fenced yard while a certified local instructor leads the participants through an hour-long yoga flow. Downward dogs are a prime time for goats to climb over the yogi’s backs, and there are plenty of photo ops. The goats hang around after the session for guests to cuddle, take selfies, and try advanced yoga positions. The class is open to all ages and experience levels. Branded goat yoga merchandise is available for purchase, and each participant 21 years and older receives one free Ancient City Brewing draft beer. Registration for Goat Yoga is $31 per person, and tickets may be purchased here.
Goat Yoga is conveniently scheduled just before the Boos and Brews 5k and 1-mile Fun Run. This is a chip-timed race, with timing services by Florida Race Day. Everything is followed by one heck of a Halloween afterparty, complete with a costume contest, food truck, music, and a free ACB draft beer for finishers 21 years and older. Registration is open for runners of all abilities. The 5K is $40 per person; race day registration is $45 per person, cash or check only. The 1-mile Fun Run is $25 per person. Packet pick-up is on race day, October 26th, from 3:45 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. The race begins at 5 p.m. Runners and walkers can register here.
ACB brews and cans its beers at the Flagship Brewhouse, located in an industrial warehouse complex just off SR 16 and I-95. Locals and visitors alike can enjoy a freshly poured beer at the flagship Brewhouse or the Downtown Taproom on Cathedral Place. As always, Ancient City Brewing encourages all its patrons to drink responsibly.
