I’ve been obsessed with these mats for over five years. Super grippy, ultra comfy, and built to power you through any workout!

I can jump, stretch, squat, and move around without tugging or adjusting anything. It stays put, doesn’t get see-through when you bend, and feels supportive but not restrictive. Love the fabric & the cut - so flattering.

NOVAWOOLF has blown my standards away with their quality, especially being a local brand. I have always hated cups in my sports bra’s - I throw them out immediately. But this is the first sports bra ever where the cups fit perfectly and they just feel a part of the bra. Their yoga mats are luxury quality.

Honestly won't ever buy any other yoga mat again! So happy with my purchase, thank you!

Fantastic mat. Feels much healthier than the plasticy gym mats I have been using thus far. So nice and grippy underfoot also perfect for balancing work in Pilates. A nice wide size also, more spacious than our gym standard mats. I like the carry handle addition. Definitely worth a bit of extra budget to get this Aligned mat. It makes my Yoga and Pilates sessions so much more pleasant.

Hi, I'm Ilse.
Founder of NOVAWOOLF — research psychologist, artist, yoga teacher, and someone who found her way back to herself on a yoga mat. I’ve always been drawn to the connection between body and mind, and the daily rituals that help us return to ourselves. This brand began with a single painting I made late one night (that became our first yoga mat design), a realisation that most movement essentials weren’t designed with enough care, and a belief that what we move with should be as considered as the practice itself. So I made my own.
Everything here exists with that same intention. I’m glad you’re here.
