Come and try something new with Got Your Goat at Aquila’s Nest Vineyards. Experience the joy of goats, Pilates and this award-winning venue.About this Event
Come join our goats while we embark on a brand new program.
About the venue: Aquila's Nest Vibeyards is a beautiful 41-acre experience-focused winery -- the brainchild of enophiles, Neviana Zhgaba and Ardian Llomi, who purchased the former 200-year-old farm in 2016. Drawing on their Mediterranean heritage, the Aquila’s Nest Vineyard experience intermingles mythology, art and wine to create a story that will define the guest experience from the moment one enters the driveway, to the first peak of the Mediterranean statues in front the winery entrance.
Wine is not included in your ticket. A drink purchase of minimum $10 plus tax and gratuity per participant is required to attend this event and can be made at the vineyard prior to the start of the event, after our staff checks your ID. You're welcome to pick up the drink at the end of this event. Outside Alcohol Beverages, Water Bottles or Any Other Beverages are NOT allowed to be brought in the premises of the vineyard. This is a restriction of our Farm Winery Permit. Our staff reserves the right to check bags and coolers. All participants must be 21 years of age or older.
About the program: You may know that goats spread joy with their silly antics, but did you know they also cause your body to release oxytocin, the feel-good hormone? Come to this event to discover the one, two punch of goat joy AND endorphins from exercise.
Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that strengthens the core, improves flexibility and balance, and tones the entire body. Did you know that exercise can literally change your brain? It enhances memory, reduces the risk of cognitive decline, and boosts feel-good chemicals like serotonin and GABA, which help manage stress and improve mood.
About our instructor: Kylie Bray is a Pilates instructor in Southbury and Brookfield, CT. She believes movement is one of the most powerful forms of self-care. Her classes are designed to be welcoming, empowering, and transformative. Whether you're new to Pilates or looking to deepen your practice, she is here to guide you in moving with intention, strengthening your body, and embracing the connection between physical fitness and mental well-being. Let’s celebrate our bodies, challenge our minds, and find joy in movement together. See you on the mat! (Speaking of - PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN MAT) 🙏🏻
About the Goats:Our goats are healthy, social, loving of the small Nigerian Dwarf breed. They are brought up around people and children and are bonded to humans. In this way, they are uniquely inquisitive and seek connection during Pilates and other programs. They are the stars of this event and cannot wait to meet you!
About Got Your Goat: We are Got Your Goat and we beleve that animals help bring out the best in people. We believe, more specifically, that goats bring joy to everyone they meet. Got Your Goat was founded to enable our farm's goats to interact with more people and for the mutual relationship between human and animal to be explored by people who would not normally have casual access to farm animals, namely goats.
