The Dharba Grass Yoga Mat from Jade Yoga is made from dharba grass and cotton. Dharba grass is a tropical grass that grows in India and is considered sacred there. These yoga mats are very suitable for outdoor exercises.
Jade's dharba grass mats are hand-woven by rural artisans in India to preserve a tradition and art form and provide a livelihood for local weavers. Weaving has long been a traditional way of life for many people in this area of India and has seen a huge decline in recent years as it can be very difficult to make a living from weaving alone.
These rugs support the traditional weavers and enable them to use their skills to support their families. For many of them, this is the only job they have ever had and making these rugs allows them to keep this tradition alive.
Unlike Jade's natural rubber mats, the dharba grass yoga mats can also be used very well outdoors.
JADE'S GIVING PROGRAM

CARE
Wipe the mat lightly with a cotton cloth soaked in a small amount of mild detergent or yoga mat cleaner. Leave the mat to dry in the shade until it is completely dry.
