What Can I Expect During Yoga at the Zoo?

  • Meditative flow that is suitable for all skill levels
  • A featured animal or Zoo department for each session
  • An engaging chat about the featured animal or Zoo department

Yoga sessions are coed and limited to guests ages 13 years and older. Guests under the age of 18 require parental consent to participate. Guests must be at least 16 years old to attend without a parent or guardian.

Yoga at the Zoo is a rain or shine event. All locations are subject to change.

To support the highest level of well-being, animals living at the Detroit Zoo choose where to spend time within their habitats. This includes both their indoor and outdoor living spaces, as well as parts of their habitats that are hidden from public view. While habitats will be open for this event, animals may choose to be out of sight. We appreciate your understanding and support of our goal to provide the best possible care for the animals who call the Detroit Zoo home.

What’s New at Yoga at the Zoo

The Ron Kagan Wildlife Interpretive Gallery is back as one of the locations in this year’s lineup! This serene indoor space — which is home to beautiful butterflies and birds — is the perfect place to connect with your inner flow.

How Does Yoga at the Zoo Support the Detroit Zoological Society (DZS) Mission?

By attending events hosted by the Detroit Zoo, you are directly supporting the DZS mission of creating meaningful connections between people, animals and the natural world so all can thrive.

Not only is yoga a healthy form of exercise, but it is also a chance to connect with your surroundings. By focusing each yoga session on a particular habitat, you are directly connecting with the animal stories at the Detroit Zoo.
