Paris 14th: Puppy Yoga
Book on GetYourGuide →Operated by Kitten & Puppy Yoga · Bookable on GetYourGuide
Yoga, but with puppy interruptions. That’s the core idea of Paris 14th puppy yoga by Kitten & Puppy Yoga: 30 minutes of movement with a relaxed pace, then 30 minutes of play and cuddles right after. It’s a playful break from normal routines, and it leans into the fact that dogs are going to be dogs.
I love that the yoga part is designed for all levels, so you don’t need to be a contortionist to join in. I also like that the puppies roam freely—so the whole hour feels more natural than staged, and the vibe stays informal and kind.
One drawback to consider: the biggest risk here isn’t the yoga or the puppies—it’s the meeting-point accuracy. Some people have had trouble finding the activity or getting a quick answer by phone, so do your homework before you head over.

Key things to know before you go

- All-level instruction: you can join whether you’re brand-new or practiced
- Puppies set the atmosphere: they’re free to roam, drink, and rest
- Bring clothes that can get dirty: this is a hands-on, playful session
- Confirm mats expectations: the info is a bit inconsistent about whether mats are provided
- Double-check where to meet: meeting-point confusion has been a recurring issue
How the 30-Minute Yoga Fits Into a Puppy Play Session
This is a 1-hour experience with a simple flow. First you get 30 minutes of yoga designed to work for beginners through more experienced folks, with instruction in English and French.
In a normal yoga class, you focus on breath, alignment, and the silence you paid for. Here, you’re practicing with a living soundtrack nearby—puppies moving around, popping in and out, and occasionally turning your head at the worst (and funniest) time. The good news is that the class is meant to be gentle and approachable, so you’re not being graded on your form.
You’ll want to arrive ready to move in comfy clothing. Even if you’re an experienced yogi, I’d go in with the mindset of a relaxed hour, not a strict workout. The goal is calm and connection, then the fun part right after.

Meeting the Puppies: Roaming, Drinking, Resting, and Cuddling
The second half is the “puppy payoff.” After yoga, you’ll have 30 minutes of play and cuddles with the dogs.
What makes this part feel different is the way the puppies are handled. They’re free to roam, and they can drink and rest as they please. That means you’re not trying to force puppy attention, and you’re not meant to treat the dogs like props.
You should also expect that the session will be flexible in small ways. A puppy that’s curious might wander close during stretches, then wander away for a snooze. That’s not a flaw—it’s the point, and it keeps the atmosphere authentic.
Also note the boundaries: you’re not allowed to feed the animals. That’s for safety, comfort, and to keep the dogs on their own routine.
What to Wear and Bring for a Messy-Magic Hour in the 14th
The activity asks for practical preparation. Bring comfortable clothes and plan on wearing something that can get dirty, because this is playtime with puppies, not a museum visit.
Closed-toe shoes aren’t explicitly listed, so I can’t claim they’re required—but you’ll likely feel better with footwear that won’t make you nervous if a dog bumps into you or you shuffle around a bit. If you have a favorite soft athletic outfit, save it for another day.
If you hate the idea of getting fur on your clothes, don’t sign up for this expecting fur-free. The session is built around closeness, and the instructions themselves emphasize that puppies will be physically present and active.
Price and Value: Is $59 Worth It in Paris 14th?
At $59 per person for a 1-hour session, you’re paying for a specific experience: guided yoga plus a structured block of time to interact with puppies.
For value, I’d look at what’s included. You get all-level yoga instruction, access to yoga mats during the session, and photos to keep as a memory. That photo piece matters more than you might think—puppy yoga is fun, but it’s also chaotic, and taking good pictures while trying to stay present is harder than it sounds.
One caution: the information says yoga mats are both available during the session and also listed under Not Included. That contradiction isn’t uncommon on travel platforms, but it does mean you should confirm before you arrive so you don’t end up scrambling for a mat.
So is it worth it? If you want a calm reset plus a guaranteed “smile moment” with animals, this price can feel fair. If you’re expecting a quiet, silent studio class, you may decide it’s overpriced for what you want.
Who This Works Best For—and Who Should Skip It
This session is open to all levels of yoga, and the instruction is offered in English and French. It’s ideal if you’re traveling solo, going with a friend, or you just want a break that feels different from the usual Paris plan.
That said, it has clear suitability limits:
- Not suitable for children under 8 years
- Not suitable for people over 70 years
You should also think about your own comfort with animals and movement. The puppies are allowed to move freely, so the experience won’t feel perfectly controlled. If you prefer highly structured activities with very predictable pacing, choose a different yoga class type.
Logistics in the 14th: Finding the Right Spot Without Stress
Here’s the practical part that can make or break this kind of experience: meeting point clarity.
The provided address details have been reported as problematic, including wrong addresses and phone numbers that went to voicemail immediately. That suggests you should treat this booking like any activity with an unclear location in Paris: verify the exact meeting instructions before you go.
If you’re planning to walk there, give yourself extra time. Paris neighborhoods can be a bit confusing if the meeting instruction is vague, especially on a weekend when streets and entrances can feel similar.
Also, don’t plan this as your only backup activity. Pair it with an easy nearby plan so you’re not stuck if you lose time locating the start.
The Rules That Keep Puppy Yoga Comfortable
The experience includes a few rules that are there for a reason, not just to sound official.
You’re not allowed alcohol or drugs, and you’re not meant to feed the puppies. Those are straightforward and help keep everyone safe and relaxed, which matters when you’re sharing space on a floor with animals that are moving at their own speed.
The session also notes that puppies are free to drink and rest. That’s a big deal because it reduces pressure on you and keeps the dogs comfortable. When animals are comfortable, the whole experience tends to feel calmer for humans, too.
Should You Book Puppy Yoga in the 14th?
If you want a one-hour reset in Paris that mixes gentle yoga with real animal interaction, this can be a fun change of pace. I think it’s especially good for people who like low-pressure activities and don’t mind that the session won’t be perfectly quiet or perfectly predictable.
If you hate meeting-point uncertainty, though, slow down. Double-check the location and make sure you have the correct contact details before you set off. That single step can save you a lot of stress.
My call: book it if you’re flexible and animal-friendly, and only if you verify where to meet. Otherwise, Paris has plenty of excellent yoga options without the added variable of roaming puppies.
