SukhaMat

The SukhaMat is a yoga knee pad, designed to comfort your knees, ankles, sit-bone or any other sensitive pressure points without sacrificing balance and stability. I immediately fell in love with the physical aspect of it and later, the spiritual. But, right from the beginning, I had to modify postures, use a towel under my knees or fold the mat for extra cushion on my sit bones, knees and elbows.

This got pretty tiresome, so I cut up an old mat to make extra cushion. It wasn’t quite enough, so, I found a mat that was 10mm thick, (with the help of my talented husband) cut it to the length and width I thought would be the most versatile, used it one time and discovered it was just what I was hoping for, the right combination of support and comfort! Since I work at a yoga studio, I began asking people to use it during their practice and tell me what they thought. The response was immediately positive! The SukhaMat (Sanskrit meaning; happiness, pleasure, ease, or bliss) was born. Barbara Merrill, 200RYT
