Family Yoga: Our children's range of vegan suede mats inspires and supports a beautiful practice of mindfulness, healthy movements, and positive practices that a family can do together.
How to Take Care of Your Yoga Mat
Adequate care is of paramount importance in the life extension of your yoga mat by keeping it unsoiled and well maintained:
Regular Cleaning: After every use, clean the mat with a solution of soft natural cleaning material or water with gentle soap. Avoid harsh chemicals; they can break down the material over time.
Deep Cleaning: Periodically immerse your mat in a small basin of warm soapy water. Agitate gently and rinse. Hang to dry. Do not put your mat in the washing machine or dryer.
Storage: Store your mat in a cool, dry place and out of direct sunlight; light can fade the colours and break down materials. Consider using a mat bag to protect it from dust and dirt when not in use. Care: Always roll your mat loosely; do not fold or crease as that will cause irreversible damage.
