Roman had to modify some of her practice to move around the goats, which freely roamed around the class. Some were calmed, some distracted by their furry friends BEN RAMSEY The Park Record “The albatross and whale, they are my brothers,” music from an iPad softly crooned, sitting in the shaded grass at the Promontory soccer field. It belonged to Jennifer Schnabel, owner of InBALANCE Yoga, who sat on her mat nearby. Though her Orembased studio is primarily a hot yoga venue, Schnabel occasionally breaks from tradition, including on Saturday when she led three classes of 25 yoga students in goat yoga, or “goga,” in Summit County. “No one has their shoes inside?” Schnabel asked her audience. “The goats might try and eat them.” Schnabel and the students sat inside a temporary fence, underneath a canopy of awnings almost as blue as the sky overhead. Before the class had even started, the students were mingling with the goats, which they occasionally said were a lot like docile dogs. Nancy Kaplan, a soft-spoken visitor with short, silver hair, and no prior experience with goats or goat yoga, was cuddling one in her lap as if she had known it all her life. “Watch the poop right there,” her neighbor had said, as Kaplan had taken her mat.
