Where to Buy Yoga Mats in Metro Manila: All Local Brands!

For many of us, getting into yoga and fitness is not just a passing trend—it’s a lifestyle we plan to sustain. With this in mind, a plain, cheap yoga mat just doesn’t cut it anymore. (Unless simple and practical is your jam, of course!) I've been searching for a mat that has it all: a non-slip grip, enough cushioning for my elbows and knees, and a cute design. At first, I had no idea where to buy a yoga mat that had everything I required—but by the end of my search, I had more than enough options to choose from!

If you, too, are serious about your practice, then you should definitely go beyond choosing a mat that simply looks good on the 'gram. You should invest in quality, too! In my search for the perfect yoga mat, I narrowed down my options based on material, dimensions, and price, on top of design. Below, I share my top suggestions for where to buy yoga mats in Metro Manila. Oh, and guess what? They’re all local brands! #SupportLocal, everyone!

Where to buy yoga mats in Metro Manila

1. Sumati

Our meaningful mats come with positive affirmations that remind us that yoga is not just asana, yoga is much more. Whether you're flowing or just sitting down in meditation, keep yourself grounded with these statements. "I am" are two of the most powerful words for whatever you put after these words become your reality. Mindfully shift your energy and realign to your true nature. ❤️

Yoga isn’t just great for taking care of our bodies — it’s nourishment for the mind and soul, too. 

This is exactly what Sumati (Sanskrit for “a good mind”) stands for. The first thing I noticed about their yoga mats was the phrases inscribed around the corners: affirmations like “I am strong” and “I am grounded”. Such lovely reminders to keep us going while breaking a sweat! If you were wondering where to buy yoga mats that motivate you to work out, then look no further.

Their Grip Mats are perfect for your home practice, while their Travel Mats are ideal for those who are always on the go. Yogis in particular will love that these mats come with alignment markings to help guide you through your yoga poses!

When I started actively looking for a new yoga mat, I turned to the digital sphere (as we all do nowadays).

Among many names that were suggested, Natura Yoga was one that came up often, as well as one of those that stuck with me. 

The first thing that caught my attention was their jaw-droppingly beautiful designs; Natura works with talented local artists, and brings their amazing work to life with their mats. As for material, their mats have microfibre tops and natural tree rubber base in order to provide you with a superior, non-slip grip. In other words, the mats are sweat-proof — plus, easy to clean!

Already happy with the mat you currently have? Or perhaps you aren’t willing to invest in one just yet! When I was in the same phase, I was more than happy to simply pretty up my simple mat with a gorgeous yoga towel from Sora.

Not only will you fall in love with their designs — you’ll definitely appreciate their absorbent material and moisture-activated, non-slip grip. Its sand-repellent quality also makes it a great beach towel, too. As for the best part? Each of Sora’s towels is made with a total of eight recycled plastic bottles!
