Barn Hill Preserve of Delaware began holding Kangaroo Yoga in January 2020 at local gyms to raise money for Australia's devastating bushfires in late 2019 and early 2020. Those early Kangaroo Yoga sessions were hugely popular and helped us acquire funds that we were then able to distribute to the Australian wildlife warriors in need! 

Flash forward to summer of 2020... just like most businesses, COVID-19 had heavily impacted our ability to travel around and educate persons across the country about our amazing animal ambassadors. Our team of dedicated animal education enthusiasts at Barn Hill Preserve had to get creative in order to spread our knowledge and passion for animals to the public in these uncertain times. We began showcasing our animals in Facebook live videos, livestream presentations to schools, ZOO-m calls for people of all ages, and our drive-thru events called Car-E-Safaris.

Despite the successes of those options, we still strived to bring people a more interactive experience with our animal ambassadors and that is where our new outdoor Kangaroo Yoga comes in!
