Little Lifts Goat Yoga

Goat Yoga for Little Lifts

We’re closing out our Goat Yoga season with a special charity edition in aid of our Charity of the Year – Little Lifts – and we’d love you to be part of it.

Come join us in the paddock for a peaceful, joy-filled yoga session led by Embrace Yoga, surrounded by our cheeky goats as the sun sets over the Norfolk countryside. Expect golden hour glow, gentle flows and plenty of goat giggles.

To mark the occasion, we’re asking guests to wear a touch of pink to show your support for Little Lifts and those going through breast cancer treatment.

Friday 19th September

Em from Embrace Yoga will guide you through a 40 minute yoga session in the goat pen alongside our cheeky Boer goats. These sessions are perfect for beginners and groups who are looking to get outside and experience something different in the heart of the Norfolk countryside.

Your session will run for an hour, with 10 minutes at the start to welcome the herd, followed by a 40 minute yoga session, before finishing off with 10 minutes to say goodbye to your new four legged friends.

And if that wasn’t enough to tempt you… this date also lines up with our very last Pizza in the Paddock of the year! So why not stick around and enjoy a well-earned slice (or three) from the amazing Crabb & Fox Pizza Box?

What you’ll need:

You will need to bring along your own exercise mat, blanket or towel. We recommend you use something old or something that you don’t mind getting dirty as you will be out on the grass in the goat pen with the rest of the herd.

Please make sure you are suitably clothed for this session. You will be outside in the goat pen, so make sure you’re wrapped up warm or covered in sun cream, we all know how unpredictable the British weather can be, so please check the forecast before attending. Remember that this is a beginners session for yoga, so make sure you’re wearing something comfortable and preferably stretchy – no one wants to do yoga in jeans!

Things to note:

Our Goat Yoga sessions will be held out in the goat pen, and as this is where the herd lives,  you and your belongings may come into contact with animal droppings. Please be aware of your surroundings, and use the antibacterial spray and blue roll available to clean down your belongings at the end of the session.

You MUST wash your hands thoroughly both BEFORE and AFTER the session, with soap and warm water in the hand-washing facilities provided. Please avoid touching your face during the sessions. No food or drink is to be consumed in the paddock during the session, and you MUST make sure you have washed your hands thoroughly before eating or drinking after your session.

Our Goat Yoga sessions will be held outside and are dependent on the weather. Unfortunately, if weather conditions are bad, we will not be able to go ahead with the session, and will get in contact to rearrange the session.

Our Boer goats are cheeky and have a mind of their own. During the session, they may climb on and nibble you, please tie up long hair and make sure all loose jewellery is removed before the session.

While you will be in the goat pen, we cannot guarantee that our goats will be near you throughout the whole session. They like to do whatever they want, but fingers crossed they’ll be in the mood for a little play during your session.

Goat Yoga may be held at the same time as other events, and due to the sessions being out in the Goat Paddock, the general public and other Goat Shed customers will be able to see from afar.
