trailblazing pioneers in animal assisted therapy
About GGA Dwarf Goat Yoga
GGA Dwarf Goat Yoga is a wellness company founded on May 9th, 2021, by GG and Sabrina Matthews, two passionate animal lovers with a deep spiritual connection. Our mission is to provide a unique and transformative experience through the fusion of high-quality yoga instruction led by certified professionals and the playful presence of adorable dwarf goats. GGA stands for Good God Almighty, reflecting our commitment to holistic well-being without religious affiliation.
Diversity and inclusivity are core values at GGA, as we proudly operate as a black-owned business and maintain a diverse staff. Located at our Zen Farm, we offer a range of activities including goat yoga, pilates with goats, meditation with goats, reiki with goats, cow cuddling, and hiking with goats. Our fully mobile setup allows us to bring our therapeutic experiences to various locations across the southeast regions, catering to diverse communities.
As a mental health awareness company, we provide premier therapy goats and cows in Atlanta, GA, aiming to destigmatize mental health challenges and promote holistic healing practices. Our impactful work has garnered recognition from media outlets such as Fox 5, MTV, ANF, and WJHG in Florida. We have hosted beachfront goat yoga sessions at Sandestin Gulf and beach resorts, conducted a 5-class series at GA Tech, and partnered with Northside Hospital for Mental Health Awareness Month events, among numerous other collaborations with renowned brands.
At the heart of it all is the GGA Zen Farm—our sanctuary and home to a growing family of therapy animals. We are a no-kill farm committed to raising animals in a loving, trauma-free environment. Many of our animals arrive as babies from farms across the country, while others are rescues saved from kill pens or given to us by farmers who can no longer care for them. Regardless of their origin, each animal receives individualized care, socialization, and training to become a therapy companion for our wellness classes.
GGA Zen Farm is not a traditional working farm—we do not produce or sell dairy, meat, or agricultural goods. Our farm exists solely as a therapeutic space, dedicated to animal-assisted wellness experiences. Every animal here is part of a thoughtfully curated environment built to foster connection, healing, and peace.
We specialize in raising and training animals specifically for therapeutic work, ensuring that every goat, cow, pig, and chicken we care for becomes a source of comfort, joy, and healing. Our animals are more than just participants in our sessions—they're family. Through gentle routines, positive reinforcement, and daily enrichment, we cultivate trust, calm energy, and genuine connection between animals and humans alike.
Join us on a journey of wellness, compassion, and connection with GGA Dwarf Goat Yoga—where healing begins on the mat, and magic happens at the farm.
