A HOTEL in the Lake District is offering guests the chance to do yoga – with lemurs.
The “Lemoga” classes will see guests enjoy a full workout alongside the cheeky creatures.

The Armathwaite Hall Hotel & Spa in Cumbria has introduced the odd new fitness activity as part of their “Meet the Wildlife” wellness programme.
The lemurs are from the Lake District Wildlife Park, located next to the hotel, and will be joining guests for the full session.
The animals are said to be extremely playful, and they are also good at interacting with humans.
Carolyn Graves, owner of Armathwaite Hall, told Chronicle Live: “As a wellness destination, we’re used to providing our guests with outdoor experiences which help relieve the symptoms of city living such as stress, sleep and pollution.
“Lemoga offers our guests the chance to feel at one with nature, at the same time joining in with the lemurs’ play time.”

Guests who want to take part can contact the hotel directly for more information and bookings.
Lemurs not your thing? Thankfully the hotel is known for it’s outdoor activities, sitting on 400 acres of woodland with outdoor hikes and canoeing also on offer.
Other offerings at the hotel include walking with alpacas through the Armathwaite Hall Estate and meeting the meerkats.
It isn’t the first time fitness with animals has caused a storm – Pilates with goats also exists.
Actress Kate Beckinsale even tried out the trend for herself with her daughter and ex-husband Michael Sheen after it was introduced during an episode of Countryfile.
Despite the weird new trendy classes, yoga is great for losing weight and toning up.
