Ricetech Yoga Mat
$89.00Plank’s Ricetech™ high-performance yoga mat pioneers our genuine efforts to reduce the yoga mat industry’s carbon footprint. We are the first company to use the latest in bio-material science, Ricetech, to enhance the mechanical & physical characteristics of our mats, while simultaneously, radically reducing our raw material consumption and manufacturing footprint.
What is Ricetech™
Ricetech, is a material innovation which upcycles one of the humblest of commodities: rice husk, i.e. rice waste. More precisely we unlock rice husk's potential, whose fibers are renowned for its
- biodegradability
- high traction
- light weight,
- toughness, weather resistance,
- flexibility, torque, tensile, tear,
- low-swell, high water absorption,
- oxygen-barrier properties.
How does this benefit the yoga mat?
Ricetech™ combined with natural raw rubber provides natural strength and high traction to deliver sustainability benefits in a wide variety of ways:
- Ricetech™ reduces each mat’s raw material consumption by an unprecedented 30% of upcycled raw materials
- Due to its lightweight properties, we have increased the raw material density, making it tougher, more resilient to torque & tear
- The increased density, coupled with the its reduced oxidation properties extends the mat's endurance due to reduced size of open cells for bacteria
- Rice fibers have high water absorption as well as high surface friction, which can help improve its wet grip properties
With all these benefits, it’s no surprise leading material suppliers in industries such as, construction, bio-plastics, food packaging and footwear companies use rice husk fibers to improve the physical, mechanical and thermal properties of their products.

The Cobra Yoga Mat
$125.00For the open-hearted and courageous who face their fears and can look a toy snake in the eye...
Overview
Plank yoga mats, beyond the image. A technology to increase isometric muscle activation to create stronger hands, feet & mind. Whereas a typical grip yoga mat only requires partial contact quality, Plank mats are designed to enhance Broaden And Deepen the contact quality of the whole hand or foot. Sending more blood to soles of feet and palms of hands which can accelerate healing & produce surprising power.
Plank yoga mats are designed specifically to proactively develop strong hands and feet for the duration of poses on the mat, to provide the muscle memory for poses off the mat which can take any physical activity to the next level.
Yoga poses are designed to counteract the negative effects of your DNA, postural habits, footwear and physical activities to improve recovery, sports & pose performance and more. Although we know strong feet are key to movement and strong legs, how often does your instructor demonstrate the biomechanics of grounding, like foot strengthening? Or if taught, how often are you reminded to activate your feet and maximize your grounded bases?
The constant feedback from Plank’s proprietary, heat-activated grip provides an unexpected, transformed alignment, which can lead to less pain and injuries, as well as encourage a greater challenge and engagement.

What People Are Saying About Plank Mats

Hilaria Thomas, Owner of Vida Yoga, NYC Plank yoga mats are beautiful, grippy and cushiony. The latter two characteristics are fundamental and necessary for a yogi's tactile experience, however the visual appeal that these mats embody, is really an added bonus.The first time I practiced on a Plank yoga mat was for an Extra TV clip shot with Mario Lopez at the Grove in LA. Doreen and her company were kind enough to donate mats for our yoga class and they completely brightened our experience. The images are so beautiful that it is hard to believe they are yoga mats. When I practice on my Plank mat, I feel much more grounded and connected. |

Audrey C. Verified Buyer ★★★★★ Cool mat! Neat design and as advertised! Wouldnt mind more of a selection of design choices to choose from. |

Kristen Khederian Yoga, Boston, Ma ★★★★★ As a Yoga Instructor, I've tried a lot of mat brands, but none have really imnpressed me. I've always relief on a yogi toes towel to keep me from slliding around on my mats, especially during a sweaty Vinyasa practice. However, since receiving my Plank Yoga Mat a few months ago, I have fallen in love! Don't be deceived by its beautiful, artsy exterior„ this mat is also very functional and will change your yoga practice! My PYM has allowed me to develop firmer foundations, especialy through my hands and feet, during my yoga practice. I also appreciate how my PYM consistently makes me super-aware of every part of my body during my practice and helped me to work on bulding up my non-existant foot arches. I am consistently engaging through all four corners of my mat at all times - no cheating allowed during any asana! This mat turly keeps me "on my toes" and I'd highly recommend it to all levelsd of yoga practitioners who are curious about how they can take their practice to the next level. |

Vareika Personal Training & Yoga 1,119 like this I have been working with the grounding technology of my Plank Yoga mat for the past few weeks. I have used it in gentle classes, flow classes, and heated classed alike. The mat has not only brought my attention to proper hand and foot placement and pressure, but it has deepended and brought more muscle awareness into my poses. My practice has been enhanced in a way I had never considered. All lecels of yogis and yoginis should consider a Plank Yoga Mat to add another dimension to their practice. Thank you plank! |

James Malvesti Verified Buyer ★★★★★ As a Fitness Coach I use this mat with my clients I have a lot of experience with yoga/exercise mats. My mats get lots of usage being used anywhere between 4 to 8 times per day. The first mat I used was a generic brand in my in-home personal training service which I believe lasted under a year as it started to break off into chunks. Not wanting have to replace a mat every 8 months, I then went on to a higher quality black mat which immediately started to show scuff marks. Then I started using the Cobra mat and ditched the other one as I prefer to use this with my clients. I am definitely a fan. I've also found it useful for cueing form on movements such as planks, pushups, and lunges. Great design and look! It always get comments when I roll it out. |

Leslie J. Verified Buyer ★★★★★ My Favorite Yoga Mat!!! I've been using my cobra yoga mat for the past three years and absolutely LOVE IT!!! As the founder of Afro Flow Yoga, my mat has traveled with me all over the world while teaching classes, workshops and retreats. The design and function fits in perfectly Afro Flow Yoga by reminding students to stay connected to the elements of nature and rooting into the earth! |

Elizabeth Rowan Via Facebook Review Cutting edge technology + fantastic design = Plank. I already have my eye on a second, this cheeky 'meditate, not medicate' message (& for a contemporary art squee, it makes me think of Danien Hirst). Oh ya, major foundation & bandha activating too. My down dog alone improves ten fold on this mat! Thank You pk |

Stephanie Sites Spataro Via Facebook Review I love my Pills yoga mat more than any other mat I've ever used! It's heat activating grip keeps my practice focused an dwarm while enabling me to challenge myself to conquer the poses I am eager to achieve. I could never imagine using a different mat and the heat activating technology has made a significant difference in how I pracice and bring me back to my center each class. This mat is such a blessing to me!!! |
