Connection & Compassion Series With Cassandra
NEW FOR 2026!
Saturday June 27th
Sunday August 2nd
Escape the daily grind for a deep dive into peace and a reciprocal loop of healing. This adult-only session allows for meeting animal residents and hands-on connection with those who are comfortable with physical contact. After familiarizing yourself with the animals, participate in a guided group energy session to clear mental clutter by grounding yourself in the rustic earthiness of the sanctuary farm. We will then collectively practice an offering of peaceful, loving energy back to the sanctuary residents. Your guide will highlight the resident animals’ personalities to help you connect and understand them. You’re welcome to ask questions about species, sanctuary farm life, following a compassionate dietary path, etc. You’ll leave with a lowered stress level, profound sense of fulfillment, and a heightened sense of emotional resilience that all comes from this compassion exchange.
Fence-Side Friendship Series (Kids & Families)
With Cassandra
NEW FOR 2026!
Sunday July 5th
Saturday August 15th
We’re teaching the next generation to be “sanctuary superheroes” by showing love to animals who have been rescued. From behind the safety of the fence, children can watch the residents play, snack, and nap. A kid-friendly guide will lead a fun “calm-down” session, teaching children how to find their inner peace through simple breathing and happy-heart thoughts. To finish, we’ll practice “invisible hugs”--sending all our kind, happy energy over the fences to the animals to let them know they are loved. Kids will build empathy and patience. They’ll learn that they can show huge amounts of love just by being a calm, kind presence, helping them feel connected to the world around them
About Cassandra
Cassandra leads yoga and mental fitness programs in a science-based way as part of her specialized training to support police officers. She teaches community yoga and offers one-on-one mental fitness coaching sessions using mostly the same techniques because everyone can benefit from nervous system regulation. However, there is a very soft side to her life in which she’s a lifelong volunteer supporting animal rescue organizations. She has been a cat foster parent and cat socialization coach for more than 60 highly traumatized, fearful cats through the Wisconsin Humane Society. She has volunteered with Tiny Hooves since 2019, including leading tours annually.
