If you are a Yoga Girl (of guy) then I am sure you have heard the new thing is the Cork Yoga Mats. Well, what is all the fuss about? Well let’s start with how they look. Firstly when your nose down in a pose you don’t have to look at processed compacted rubber! You will be looking at compacted Cork instead and to be honest the cork smells a whole lot nicer than some of those rubber ones that is for sure.
Cork is made from the bark of a tree commonly found in the Mediterranean area around Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Morocco and Tunisia. The cork is harvested by stripping down the bark of trees, which naturally regrows. There’s no cutting down or wasteful residue in the process, making it an ideal renewable resource.
Cork also have natural antimicrobial properties which help to repel mold and mildew away. I still use this DIY Anti Bacterial Yoga Mat Spray on my mats though.
Here are some of our favorite brands the only real difference is the backing, the print on top and of course the Prices.
