JURU is a portmanteau of JUte and RUbber and our first mat overlay was made of jute and natural rubber. ‘juu-roo’ also means ‘eureka’, ‘joy’ in a few tribal languages. Instead of crying Eureka we cried JURU! And this is precisely what JURU is – a perfect yoga companion for yogis who wish to choose the eco-friendly path.
We wanted mats and props to reflect and value the peaceful principles that yoga embodies; one of which is to establish perfect harmony with nature. Taking inspiration from some wonderful international eco-yoga brands and from the make-in-India campaign, we launched our first made-in-India anti-slip yoga mat overlay.

Looking for just the right thickness and proper stick in a mat can be quite challenging but the Juru mat withstood the test. With the perfect thickness and stick for my vinyasa practice, it has an earthy feel making it easy to ground and stay present during the flow of movement and the stillness of asana.

I am incredibly grateful to use the Juru Yoga mats for my practice. I have been in search of the perfect mat for too long now. Most yoga mats are too long, too slippery or they even tear fast. What I absolutely love about the Juru yoga mats are the fact that they have the best grip. I practice Ashtanga so you’re on your hands a lot. I have never once needed to readjust myself while I use my Juru mat. The mats are also reversible and absorb sweat faster, which is an added bonus.

I have always been drawn to practicing yoga on the floor and hence have never enjoyed the cotton or PVC yoga mats. I was in search of a thin but yet durable and earth-like feel yoga mat. When i decided to get this Juru yoga mat, my only reason was it being eco-friendly. But, to my surprise, it felt so earth-like. Love, love and love! And the grip the mat provides is perfect.
Thanks Team Juru!!

Being a mum, I now do a good part of my practice at home… With baby roaming around. So i was looking for a good yoga mat for me which will be safe as well for both my kids to crawl and play on. And of course of good quality to resist our family yoga play games… Here it is! Juru was beyond all my expectations. Even my daughter is super proud to get a ‘tree’ a yoga mat as she is calling it.
