  • 20 Creative ideas to recycle yoga mats

Since yoga mats are mainly made from PVC-materials or rubber, it’s inevitable those are going to wear off after a certain period. Serious yogis change their yoga mats every 6 – 12 month, and if you’re one of them, you’ve probably thought about creative ways to reuse or recycle yoga mats.
