You Can Do Yoga With An Otter In Ohio: Here's How Have you ever wanted to do yoga, but thought you could spice things up? Try doing yoga with an otter. The utterly bizarre workout is available in Ohio. Just come to Westmeister Farm in Shelby. The establishment has two Asian otters. Meet Harbor and Cove. Both animals love practicing yoga poses alongside humans. Yoga instructor Trish Sexstella of Meta Soul Yoga teaches the class. Sextella told NBC affiliate WKYC that the class has grown. "It opens up a door for people who may not otherwise try yoga," she explained. "Some people show up just for the event, and then they email me later and start doing regular classes. It's a good way to segue that into their lives — plus the bonus of a little animal therapy." The two otters in question love people. In addition to doing swim lessons at the farm, they just love being around people. They're also kleptomaniacs, apparently. If you're doing the yoga class, then jewelry is forbidden. It just entices the otters too much. Yoga With Otters "They are little treasure goblins," Sextella said. "They'll unscrew things, unzip things. They go in pockets, up shirts, down pants. They're very mischievous." As for the yoga itself, the otters are huge fans. They even try to do some of the poses themselves. "They absolutely love it," she continued. "They even strike little yoga poses from time to time. It's stimulating for them, and they need that." As a teacher, Sextella has to find order out of the chaos of having yoga class with two otters. However, seeing people's reactions makes for a very rewarding process for her. "I love seeing the genuine joy, the carefreeness, the laughter, the giggles," she said. "For a couple of hours each month, nothing else matters. It's super wholesome, unstaged, unfiltered — just natural, genuine joy." "Everyone has a great time," she also added. "We've had people come back a second and third time because they have such a blast."

If you’ve ever wanted to try yoga but could never find the motivation to start, maybe yoga with the #seaotter’s cousin, the #AsianOtter, in Ohio can help.
