Joining puppies and goats in the animal yoga industry, the Atlanta Alpaca Treehouse provides an unconventional approach to wellness. Every Sunday, instructors lead yoga sessions in a secluded bamboo forest hidden in an Atlanta neighborhood. Yoga attendees enjoy meditative practices and llama love.

The treehouse’s founders rescued every animal found on the property and give back to the community by donating a portion of their proceeds to Pet Buddies Food Pantry.
