I love my new yoga

"I love my new yoga mat. It’s perfect for hot yoga."

Jennifer B. (5/5)

You need this yesterday

"After many trial and error mats- never finding one that met all my needs Tula Bala classical vegan suede mat fell into my lap. I couldn’t be happier, the more I sweat the more non slip it is (my hands and feet sweat way too much) It’s the perfect size, the markings on the mat help me keep a perfect balance I tend to walk off my mat during my practice. I mean the list goes on. There is no mat that compares."

Look No Further!!

"I host group workout classes and use this mat as it’s the best I have found! The quality is unmatched. The material feels luxurious and super soft but still non-stick. Even under the hot Florida sun I wasn’t slipping around. I also love that it’s white because it stays cooler under the sun."

Ariana G. (5/5)

I don't want to practice on anything else

"This mat is unlike any that I have practiced one before, and I have tried many! The material is heavenlyyy and only gets better in heated sessions. After using it almost daily for 6 months, at home and various studios as well as outdoors, it looks as good as new. Super easy to clean and it's gorgeous to look at, so I love leaving it rolled out in my space. I miss it when I travel without it!!"

If you struggle in hot yoga, please read this.

"I’ve always struggled in hot yoga because my hands sweat a lot. Most mats would get slippery halfway through class, and I’d end up putting all this extra weight into my shoulder just to avoid slipping. It was uncomfortable and not fun at all. I tried using a towel, but it would shift around and honestly just made things more frustrating. This mat changed everything. The grip is unreal—even when I’m drenched, I stay grounded. I don’t have to think about slipping or adjusting anymore, I can finally just focus on my practice. And as someone who’s tall, I really appreciate the extra space. My feet used to hang off the ends of standard mats, but not with this one. The longer length + rounded edge design feels so intentional and supportive. Honestly, this mat solved problems I didn’t even realize were holding me back. If you do hot yoga or you’re tall and tired of feeling crammed, this is the mat. 🙌"

Madison (5/5)

This mat completely changed my yoga practice

"I've been practicing yoga for over 10 years and never truly connected with a mat the way I do with this one. It is pure luxury and worth every penny. I practice hot yoga at least 3 times a week, sometimes more, and after over a year of use, it is still just as beautiful as the day I got it. Airing it out after each class is key, and a nice scrub once a week does the trick! Not having to fuss with a yoga towel and just arriving on my mat with ease is everything. The alignment lines are a delightful touch that I didn't realize I would utilize so much. I'm so incredibly grateful to have found my "forever mat" as a joke because I truly believe in this product and brand and how it has elevated my yoga practice and my life. ☺️"

This Mat is Everything✨

"I use the Vegan Suede mat, and the grip is amazing—especially in hot yoga sessions. No towel needed, no slipping around, just full focus on the flow. The alignment lines are subtle but incredibly helpful, and the rounded edges make the design feel calm and intentional. You can tell this mat was created by someone who lives their practice. Every detail feels thoughtful—from the eco-conscious materials to the grounding Earth-inspired artwork. It’s beautiful, durable, and honestly elevates the whole experience of being on the mat."

Mikaela N. (5/5)

Absolutely love this mat!

"The quality is amazing. Super durable and grippy, even in the sweatiest hot yoga sessions. I don’t need a towel at all, which is a total game changer. Plus, the aesthetic is gorgeous. Highly recommend!"

Nevvy (5/5)

Totally elevated my hot yoga experience!

"Obsessed! Soft when dry, grippy when sweaty, and beautiful to look at. No slipping, no towel needed, and easy to clean. The perfect blend of comfort, style, and performance. Tula Bala is amazing!"
