Why puppy yoga is such a refreshing wellness reset
Traditional yoga helps you build strength, mobility, and calm. Adding puppies brings a joyful, lighthearted energy that many people find instantly grounding. The result is a session that can feel less like “working out” and more like recharging.
- Stress relief you can feel: A gentle flow plus playful puppy energy encourages you to breathe, smile, and stay present.
- Beginner-friendly momentum: With an all-level class format, it’s approachable even if your yoga experience is limited.
- A social, memorable activity: Great for friends, birthdays, visitors in town, or a unique weekend plan.
- Photo-worthy fun: Between the studio setting and puppy chill time, it’s designed to be an “insta-friendly” experience.
What happens during a Puppies & Yoga session in Scottsdale
The experience is intentionally simple: you move, you breathe, you laugh, you cuddle puppies. Here’s the basic flow of the 75 minutes.
1) Arrive and settle in (plan to be early)
Participants are asked to arrive 15 minutes early for a smooth start. This extra time helps you check in, get comfortable in the space, and get set up on your mat.
To keep the session on track, entry is not allowed 20 minutes after the session begins. If you’re coming from across town, build in buffer time for parking and traffic so you can start relaxed, not rushed.
2) 45-minute all-level flow yoga (with puppies in the room)
The yoga portion is a 45-minute all-level flow. “All-level” typically means you can modify postures based on your comfort and ability, making it a welcoming option for first-timers and regular yogis alike.
And yes, the puppies are part of the environment during the flow. They may roam, rest nearby, or curiously explore the studio. It’s a different vibe than a silent studio class, in the best possible way.
3) 30-minute “puppy chill” time
After the flow, the session transitions into 30 minutes of puppy chill, which is dedicated time for gentle interaction, cuddles, photos, and play. This portion is a highlight for many participants because it’s unhurried, social, and pure serotonin.
One important note: because puppy wellness comes first, interaction is not guaranteed. Puppies may choose to nap or keep to themselves, and staff may guide interactions to keep everything calm and safe.
What your $69 ticket includes
Puppies & Yoga in Scottsdale is designed to be easy to say “yes” to, even if you’re not the type to own a full yoga setup. Each ticket includes:
- 75 minutes total: a 45-minute all-level flow + a 30-minute puppy chill period
- A yoga mat for the session (so you can travel light)
- A wellness drink cart to round out the feel-good vibe
- The chance to be surrounded by 6 to 12 puppies (typical range per class)
Location: where the Scottsdale classes take place
The Scottsdale pop-up sessions are held at:
3007 N 73rd Street, Suite B, Scottsdale, AZ 85251
If you’re planning this as part of a weekend itinerary, arriving early gives you a calmer check-in and helps you start the class feeling centered. You can also book your spot online at puppies-yoga.com/products/scottsdale to reserve a session.
Meet the puppies: where they come from and how wellness is protected
A major reason puppy yoga can feel so meaningful is that it’s not only fun for humans. When done thoughtfully, it can also support puppies during an important developmental window.
Local sourcing and puppy age
Puppies are sourced from local breeders. The puppies participating in class are typically:
- 8 to 12 weeks old
- Vaccinated
- Kept with their litter and not mixed with other litters
Keeping puppies with their litter and avoiding mixing can reduce stress and help maintain a consistent, safer environment for young dogs.
Why puppy yoga can support socialization
These sessions are designed to promote gentle human interaction for puppies before they are rehomed. Calm, positive experiences with people can help puppies feel more comfortable as they transition to new families.
How many puppies will be there?
Each session typically hosts 6 to 12 puppies, though the exact number may vary depending on the litter size and availability.
Breed announcements (and why they can change)
Puppy breeds are often announced a few days in advance on social media and may also appear on the booking page. Because these are live animals with real needs, breeds are not guaranteed and can vary at the last minute for a range of reasons.
If you’re hoping for a specific breed, it helps to stay flexible and focus on the experience: movement, laughter, and puppy energy, regardless of the exact mix.
Who this experience is best for
Puppies & Yoga in Scottsdale is built to be welcoming. It’s positioned as both beginner-friendly and insta-friendly, making it a strong option for a wide range of guests.
- Yoga beginners: The all-level flow format means you can participate without feeling behind.
- People seeking stress relief: If your week has been intense, this is a playful reset button.
- Couples and friend groups: A unique shared experience that’s easy to remember and talk about later.
- Visitors to Scottsdale: A fun pop-up activity that stands out from typical workout classes.
- Families with older kids: Participants must be at least 10 years old, and minors under 15 must be accompanied by an adult.
What to bring (and how to prepare)
Because a mat is provided, you can keep it simple. A few smart choices can make your session even more comfortable.
- Comfortable movement clothes: Choose something you can stretch in and don’t mind getting a little puppy attention.
- Arrive early: Plan for the requested 15-minute early arrival to settle in.
- Hydration mindset: There’s a wellness drink cart, and you’ll likely feel better if you’re well-hydrated.
- Gentle expectations: Puppy interaction is a bonus, not a guarantee, because wellness comes first.
Safety, waivers, and respectful interaction
The environment is designed to be fun and welcoming, while still acknowledging that animals have boundaries and unpredictability. All participants must sign a waiver before joining the session.
Participating in a class with puppies includes potential risks such as scratches or bites. Staff guidance and puppy-first rules are there to keep the space comfortable for everyone, including the puppies.
If you’re attending with a child (10+), it’s especially helpful to set expectations beforehand: calm voices, gentle hands, and letting puppies come to you.
Ticket policy: pop-up rules that help the events run smoothly
Because these are pop-up events, ticketing is structured differently than a typical studio membership class.
- All ticket sales are final and non-refundable for these pop-ups.
- Class transfers are allowed up to three days prior to the event.
This policy helps the team plan staffing and puppy participation while keeping the experience consistent for attendees.
Real attendee highlights: why people come back
Part of what makes Puppies & Yoga in Scottsdale so buzz-worthy is how consistently it delivers a light, upbeat experience. Here are a few sentiments shared by attendees:
“Easy yoga and adorable puppies!” Our first experience was awesome with puppy Australian shepherds. I will be back again for sure! The yoga was great and the puppies were so cute!
“Amazing concept” Everything was SO adorable!!! The space and ambiance were perfect. I came with my boyfriend and yoga was adapted to all level.
“Such a fun time” What’s better than starting your Saturday off with a bunch of adorable puppies!? Exercise and relaxation all in one with fun, laughter and smiles.
What these reactions have in common is the blend of approachable yoga, good energy, and a setting that makes it easy to enjoy yourself even if you’re not a “serious yogi.”
Tips to get the most out of your puppy yoga session
- Lean into the beginner-friendly vibe: Focus on how your body feels, not on perfect poses.
- Let puppy moments happen naturally: The best interactions are often the ones you don’t force.
- Use the puppy chill time wisely: If photos matter to you, this is your best window for calm, clear shots.
- Make it a wellness day: Pair the class with a relaxing lunch or a low-key afternoon plan so you keep that calm momentum.
