The goat yoga session featured six nanny goats and their four‑month‑old kids, with activity leader Rosie instructing participants to 'Feel that goat in you' and 'Embody the balance of goats' and to 'feel the freedom and presence' of the animals, including a 'downward goat' variation instead of the usual 'downward dog.'

Harry looked into a goat’s eyes and managed to stare one down for a while, approaching the pen with exclamations like 'Let me in!' and asking, 'Is there health and safety? Do they bite?'

Prince Harry wrapped up his UK tour with a memorable final appearance at Scotty's Little Soldiers' summer festival at Maxstoke Castle in Warwickshire, joining a goat yoga session with around 200 children and families, according to Perth Now. The visit came less than 24 hours after a rare private reunion with King Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove, and with Meghan and the couple's children now also in Britain.
As global ambassador for Scotty's Little Soldiers — a charity supporting children who have lost a parent in the armed forces — Harry threw himself into the session, complete with six nanny goats and their four-month-old kids, Perth Now reported.
Harry Stares Down Goats and Nails a Tree Pose
Activity leader Rosie set the tone early, urging participants to "feel the freedom and presence" of the animals and "embody the balance of goats." The class featured a "downward goat" pose — a twist on the usual "downward dog" — and Harry took it all seriously, according to Perth Now. He stared into a goat's eyes and held his gaze for a surprisingly long stretch.
Harry approached the goat pen with genuine excitement, calling out "Let me in!" and asking "Is there health and safety? Do they bite?" He managed to nail a tree pose complete with goat ears, and cameras caught the whole thing. He also took selfies with children and was pelted with a water balloon during the festivities.
A Goat Steps on Harry — and the Jokes Write Themselves
When one of the goats stepped on Harry, his security team cracked a joke about protecting the "Crown Jewels." Harry laughed it off, showing the relaxed, playful mood that ran through the entire event. The moment quickly became one of the highlights of the day, drawing laughs from the crowd of 200 guests, according to Perth Now.
Family Reunion at Highgrove Before the Festival
The goat yoga appearance came after a significant family moment. The day before, Harry attended a Birmingham Invictus Games countdown event — the 2027 Games are set for Birmingham. That evening, he and Meghan were privately hosted by King Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove, the monarch's Gloucestershire residence, according to Perth Now.
It marked one of Harry's first family engagements during the UK trip and a rare get-together between the Duke and his father. Meghan and the couple's children had also arrived in Britain by the time of the Warwickshire festival, making this a full family visit to the UK.
Scotty's Little Soldiers and Harry's Role as Ambassador
Scotty's Little Soldiers supports bereaved military children across the UK. Harry serves as the charity's global ambassador, and the Maxstoke Castle festival is one of its flagship events of the year. Around 200 children and family members attended, according to Perth Now. Harry's hands-on participation — from goat yoga to water balloons — reflected his long-standing commitment to the organisation.
