Who are April, Sarah, & Friends?

If April and Sarah's faces look familiar to you, then you may recognize them from their stint on 'American Ninja Warrior', and 'The Amazing Race'. The two friends/ business partners are no strangers to the world of competition shows. If you're wondering how April and Sarah came up with the famous Goat Yoga idea, then keep reading.

April is one of Arizona's famous goat farmers. After retiring from her career as a professional waterskier, April turned to 'American Ninja Warrior' to fill in her time. She became famous when she brought in her goats as her training partners and did exercises and yoga poses with them. She was dubbed as the "Goat Whisperer" for her strong bond with goats. Sarah, on the other hand, has been teaching yoga for over two decades. In a bid to spice up her classes she began offering Paddleboard yoga sessions to her clients. one day, when Sarah saw April working out with her goats, she came up with the wild idea of switching paddleboards for goats during the cold, winter months for her yoga sessions.

The friends teamed up and became business partners and started working on developing and popularizing Goat Yoga. "We are passionate about spreading love, peace and joy, throughout diverse communities, by the entertaining enjoyment, and healing power of laughter, that one can only experience at Arizona Goat Yoga!” the duo wrote on their website. “Goats dont judge, goats just love," they point out.

Well, we'll have to see if the 'AGT' judges too love the goats and take to the concept of Goat Yoga!
