K. Pattabhi Jois, Guruji, was one of those rare souls that are larger than life and electric in their presence. He had an incredible ability to bring joy to anyone near him and make that person feel an immediate tangible personal connection. It really did not matter if one met him for only a moment or knew him for decades. He made a lasting impression. There are no words truly befitting the impact Guruji had on those that knew him directly or those that knew him only through his teachings. 
We are excited to have introduced this mat to the yoga world just this past September!
It is composed of the strongest most durable latex-free materials. It is an efficient tool for practice, weighing 30% less than comprable mats. The Gecko Mat provides incredible durability, support, and grip!
This mat measures - 26" wide, 74" long, and a width of 5mm. and weighs only 5lb. We offer the mat in 3 great colors: Olive, Brick, and Ebony!
"Around the world I've heard practitioners talking about their yoga mats. I hear the same story again and again. The really durable mats give great support but are too heavy to carry around. The lighter mats are easier to carry but they don't provide good support and they tend to fall apart. I thought there must be a way to have both durability and efficiency. After much research I came up with what I believe to be the perfect balance. The Gecko Mat! Why call it a Gecko Mat? In trying to think of a name that would convey the mat's qualities of grip and support the image of a Gecko Lizard popped into my mind. Geckos can climb on anything and be completely at ease and they are really cute! So was born The Gecko Mat." - David Swenson
