New format for Horse Yoga! Read on…
Find Harmony with Horses!
Enjoy outdoor yoga and quality time with horses at Maine’s premier horse rescue in Windham, ME!
We’ll start with an hour of gentle yoga in the barn or in one of the fields near the horses. Then if you want more interaction with the horses, you have the option to join a 30 minute guided tour of the farm. Yoga is $12 to drop in, with additional donations to the MSSPA greatly appreciated (donate via venmo/cash/check).
Why Yoga at the MSSPA?
1) Yoga is all about connection. By doing yoga outside at the farm we have an opportunity to connect with the horses, with nature, and with ourselves! 2) Horses are incredibly sensitive, as we relax in their presence, perhaps we tune-in to our own subtle energy and begin to know ourselves more deeply. 3) By bringing people out to the farm we promote the health and well-being of all the equines through education and donations.
