Frequently Asked Questions
How do I sign up?
▼
You can sign up on our booking site, which you can find here.
What if class says it’s full?
▼
Don’t worry — we still have room for you! When our booking site says that the class is full, it is only referring to our our parking spaces. If you’d still like to attend the class, you can be dropped off, walk, or ride your bike.
Do you cancel in the event of bad weather?
▼
Possibly. If we need to cancel, you’ll be notified via Facebook. However, we did do a class in the rain, and it was lovely, so don’t let mere rain turn you away!
Are reindeer going to climb on me like in goat yoga?
▼
No! Reindeer are not climbers or jumpers like goats. While they do tend to fly, rest assured they will not climb or jump on you (which is good, considering that the calves are already over 100lbs).
