Held in nature, the camp brought a new interpretation to the philosophy of sustainable living with its theme of “Rest – Learn – Renew.”
Goat Wellness Camp took place in its third year at İğneada Longosphere with the themes “Rest – Learn – Renew.” One of the camp’s most special collaborations this year was with the 1401 Coffee brand. 1401 Coffee perfectly reflected the camp’s values with its sustainable production approach and nature-friendly brand. Participants started their day with 1401 Coffee’s carefully prepared coffee after yoga at the first light of dawn, harmonizing with the rhythm of nature.
Throughout the three-day camp, participants experienced science, art, and community spirit together. The program, which combined breath, movement, music, and the healing power of nature, aimed to restore mind-body balance through yoga, sound healing, breath therapies, Pilates, functional exercises, and nature walks. In the evenings, the day ended with emotional renewal through meditation, dance performances, and art rituals.

At the end of each activity, participants stopped by the 1401 Coffee stand for a short break in nature. Here, accompanied by freshly brewed coffees and carefully prepared matcha blends, they rested their bodies and enjoyed slowing down the rhythm of the day.
One of the most notable events of the camp was the workshop organized by 1401 Coffee, titled “Journey in a Sip: 1401 Coffee Tasting Experience.” At this special gathering, participants experienced coffee culture blended with a spirit of adventure up close. Throughout the workshop, the 1401 Coffee team offered a unique experience inspired by the maca brewing ritual, explaining coffee’s journey from nature to the cup.
While discovering different brewing techniques, participants learned the intricacies of methods such as pour over, cold brew, and French press. Practical information was shared on factors affecting the aroma of coffee beans, such as heat, grinding, and water quality. The event transformed coffee from just a beverage into an experience that embodies awareness, patience, and ritual.
Science, Ritual, and Community
During the day, renowned doctors, physical therapists, dietitians, and trainers shared scientific knowledge in simple language, while rituals and art took center stage in the evenings. Sun Goddess-themed dance performances, purification ceremonies accompanied by ney players, and meditations offered participants a deep sense of connection.
Holistic Health and Awareness
This year’s instructor roster included names such as Face Yoga Specialist Mehtap Arslandöl, Dietitian Pınar Demirkaya, Coach Noyan Dülek, Pilates Instructor Simge Duman Kara, Dentist Arten, and Orthopedist Ahmet Hakan Kara. Workshops covered topics such as “The Dynamics of Breathing,” “Transformational Breathing,” “Hormonal Health,” and “Healing Begins Within.”
Renewal with Coffee
As part of this experience, 1401 Coffee offered participants not only delicious coffee but also slowness, mindfulness, and a sense of community. Each cup became a breath, a pause, a moment of awareness.
