Aspen Yoga Mats Review and Giveaway

Wendy Moore, owner of Aspen Yoga Mats contacted us for a feature of her company's custom yoga mats. A Yoga class is on my bucket list. I've tried learning it from a CD, but haven't come close to mastering even the beginning level. I was so happy when Wendy offered to send us one of her custom mats to try. 

The mats are available in five tranquil colors ~ Tangerine, Pink, Aloe, Plum and Turquoise ~ each having a different meaning. The mats can be further customized by choosing an embroidered design ~  Orchid Branch, The Laughing Buddha, Ying Yang, Aspen Leaf/Lotus Blossom or balance.

I chose the plum mat with balance embroidered in silver. I am thrilled with the way it turned out. The color is more of a lively lavender than plum. The balance design is perfect for me as my sign is Libra {the scales} and I could definitely use some balance in my life right now. Hopefully this beautiful mat will be just the ticket to inspire me to finally take that class!

The mat is very large measuring 24x72" and the embroidery measures 7"x2". It reminds me of a tight basketweave design. As a high-quality sticky mat, it has a great grip both on the surface of the floor and under the feet. It's also cushiony soft, eco-friendly and wipes clean easily. The sticky mat rolls up in a snap and weighs just 3.3 lbs. A must for any yoga enthusiast, Aspen Yoga mats retail for $59.95.


Wholesale pricing is available as is custom embroidery for corporate clients. Mats can be personalized with a logo or special event phrase. I could see these in spa gift shops or given to employees on corporate retreats. Yoga instructors could personalize with their company name and gift to clients who enroll in a series of classes.
