Tomuno is an eco-friendly yoga mat company and a Boston-based small business.
The mats are sold in places like Sports Club LA and leading yoga studios around the country.
Tomunu mats are natural mats. The rubber is harvested from actual rubber trees, rather than typical yoga mats which are plastic. Switching to a mat like this is an eco-friendly and green choice.
Note: Because these are natural rubber mats, they are designed for unheated yoga
yoga and are not recommended for hot yoga or Bikram-style yoga.
The natural rubber also provides fabulous grip so if you’re prone to slipping and sliding on your mat, you may want to look into Tomuno.
I love the extra cushioning in these mats. Extra thick at 5mm, which my joints appreciate. I practice ashtanga yoga and more power-based and vigorous yoga and over time, a little extra cushioning goes a long way to help stay injury-free.
More about my yoga practice, yoga journey, recommendations for yoga classes, apparel and clothing, mats, books, DVDs, podcasts and much more, please check out this very comprehensive post:
Also, I have many more posts linked in my Yoga Section, covering everything from my 500 Hour Teacher Training to Moon Days to Yoga DVD & Clothing Review posts and more.
Nutshell: I got my yoga teacher training credential at the RYT-200 hour level in 2001, I’m not currently teaching. I have a current daily personal practice at home; I don’t follow DVDs or podcasts, but rather I do what comes to me and what my body asks for that day. I practice ashtanga or power-based yoga and practice for about 20 minutes per day. I normally practice on a Manduka mat and have had the same Manduka Black Mat Pro for nearly a decade and have hauled it around the world with me and it still looks brand new, tens of thousands of practice hours and sweat droplets later. I will be anxious to see how the Tomuno mat stands the test of time.

I would love to use them. I never use them for this purpose.
I am on my second LotusPad mat-though I’m not sure if they are still available. Excited to try a Tomuno!
I am almost done with my YTT in Maine and have been using a HORRIBLE mat. This is not a mat I can use during my actual teaching! I would love to be “bringin’ the Shanti” to my students with new mat!
Om Shanti. Shanti Shanti.
and I already like you on fb!
I practice yoga because it forces me to slow down and just focus on breathing.
I have NO yoga mat. So I would love one of these :)
I have an OLD yoga mat that I got for free from BlueCross BlueShield Blue Points program…it’s way too thin for my liking and I’ve been debating about breaking down and buying a “real” mat. These mats you’ve posted about look beautiful!!!
Twitter followed. Once again, if it’s not too late.
