Goat Yoga in Frankston

Goat Yoga is coming to this year’s Pets’ Day Out, thanks to a partnership between Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre and the Elisabeth Murdoch Farm on Wheels. The Goat Yoga sessions will combine calming basic yoga poses with wandering baby goats, within a fully-fenced area. “It’s a little bit different and a whole lot of fun,” said PARC Health and Fitness Manager, Shannon Mounsey. “Animals can provide both physical and psychological health benefits to humans, and we know yoga also has countless benefits. So why not combine the two?” Goat Yoga has recently emerged as a new – albeit unconventional – form of fitness that allows people to tap into the positive effects of bonding with animals. “A big part of PARC’s work is making sure everyone has the opportunity to get active, so this is a unique, fun and relaxed way to get people outside and involved in some exercise,” said Shannon. “We look forward to seeing people laughing their way through the Goat Yoga sessions and leaving feeling happy and refreshed.” The 20-minute sessions will start every half hour and are suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Goat Yoga marks the beginning of PARC’s free community yoga and the PARC Paws Walk on the group exercise timetable.
Pets’ Day Out is on Sunday 14 October 2018, 10am–3pm at Ballam Park in Frankston.
Pets’ Day Out is a free event organised by Frankston City Council.

Survey: What do you gain from attending our facilities? 

At Peninsula Leisure, we know our facilities are more than places to swim, workout, take a class or recover. They’re spaces where people build healthy lifestyles, confidence and connection. 

This year, we’re inviting you to take part in a new kind of survey, one that goes beyond facilities and timetables. We want to understand how attending PARC: 

💪 Impacts your physical health and mental wellbeing 
💙 Helps you feel connected to community 
⭐️ Adds value to you or your family’s life 

Your answers will help us measure the value to our community and the real-world impact of our programs and spaces. We want to hear from everyone - Peninsula Leisure is a child-friendly organisation, and we’re especially keen to hear from young people. 

The survey is open until 26 April 2026 and will take around 10 minutes. Participants can go in the draw to win 1 of 3 x $100 Rebel Sport vouchers! Complete the survey via the link in our bio. 

Thank you for helping us build an even stronger, healthier community 💙
Our inflatable obstacle course, Splash Island, is back in the pool these school holidays! 

Don't miss the fun - book your spot today! 🤩

💧 Sessions run weekdays of the school holidays 
⭐️ Bookings are essential and open 3 days prior to sessions via our Customer Portal
