Why You’ll Love the Ursa Major Yoga Mat
-
Non-slip, practice-proven traction: A textured top layer helps hands and feet stay planted through warriors, planks, twists, and balances—even as your body warms up.
-
Cushion with control: Thoughtfully balanced density eases pressure on knees and wrists while keeping you close to the floor for stable alignment (no wobbly, too-soft feel).
-
Lay-flat reliability: Unrolls smoothly and resists edge curl so your first inhale can be about presence, not setup.
-
Daily-durable & portable: Built for regular practice and light enough for studio commutes, park flows, and weekend retreats.
-
Cosmic aesthetic: A refined constellation motif that photographs beautifully without distracting from your drishti.
Complete your setup with a moisture-wicking yoga towel for heated sessions, a breathable mat bag or sling for hands-free carry, and our gentle mat cleaner to keep your surface fresh.
Built for Real-World Practice
Your mat should help you forget about your mat. Ursa Major pairs a grippy surface that improves as you heat up with a supportive base that minimizes wobble in standing sequences and single-leg balances. Transition from sun salutations to hip openers with smooth, controlled movement, then melt into savasana on a surface that’s quietly supportive—not spongy, not slick, just right.
