Yoga with Them is a unique program that combines yoga with puppy cuddles while promoting pet adoption in Argentina. Founder Nicole Yerien created the program to benefit animals, shelters, and people.

Each session partners with a different shelter and a portion of the ticket sales go towards their cause. Participants can interact with adoptable puppies during the hour-long yoga classes. While the primary goal is adoption, it's not a requirement.

Yerien encourages people to help in various ways, such as volunteering, fostering animals, or sharing information about adoptable pets.

The program provides a fun and relaxing atmosphere for all ages. It also offers numerous physical and mental health benefits, including improved flexibility, balance, and stress reduction.

Several dogs have been adopted through Yoga with Them, and Yerien hopes to expand the program to other provinces and eventually internationally.

Beyond the adoption benefits, Yoga with Them offers a unique opportunity to bond with animals and experience the joy and relaxation they bring. Participants often leave the sessions feeling happier and more connected to the community.
