Yoga Design Lab

The idea for Yoga Design Lab started while on vacation in Bali. Its founder, Chad, was seated in the back of a packed class at the well-known mecca for yoga, Yoga Barn. Looking around, all he saw was a sea of unoriginal, massed produced, solid colored yoga mats. His thinking was, there must be a way of creating a highly functional product that was also aesthetically beautiful. The inspiration grew and he knew he wanted to design mats that would make more people excited about practicing yoga. So the journey began. Long story short, he sold his stuff, packed up a couple bags and moved to Bali with the goal of creating a line of yoga accessories that would inspire people around the world. Blending fashion-forward design elements with innovative functionality and bio-renewable consciousness is key to the Yoga Design Lab approach. From their insulated stainless steel water bottles (reduce your use of plastic water bottles please!), to their hot yoga mats comprised of biodegradable natural tree rubber, to the water based inks used in their printed designs, we can all make a difference with the products we buy. Giving back is awesome. $1 from every purchase goes to support Urban Youth Yoga Programs in need. The adventure has just begun.
