"My daughter's went for this experience and the words were " wish we could go every weekend mum" What a great experience and as you can see the puppies are well looked after. The girls felt it was a very calm and therapeutic. I also feel this would be amazing for people with needs or just need calmness in their lives..."

"I attended a puppy yoga class a while back, before they got their new studio. It was such a lovely and fun experience. I was impressed how seriously they took the well-being of the puppies, explaining how to hold them and how to play with them, and also how to include them in yoga poses.
I can’t wait to visit them at their new studio."

"Amazing! I have been to two sessions now and can’t wait to go again. They really care for the puppies- making sure you know how to interact with them, having everything the puppies need and making sure their needs are put first! The yoga class was great, although I was easily distracted by the puppies coming to say hello. I love that the yoga you are doing is considerate of the puppies and incorporates things they like- such as certain noises."

"I would highly recommend going to Helen’s classes! Who doesn’t like Yoga and more importantly who doesn’t love a puppy?! Why not combine the two! What a fantastic idea and Helen is lovely too."
