Everything for your outdoor practice

Back to nature

A meadow instead of a studio, birdsong instead of a playlist. We’ve put together everything your outdoor practice really needs—made from cork, jute, cotton, and natural rubber.

Practicing outdoors feels different

The ground gives way, the wind rustles the leaves, the light dances across the mat. Anyone who’s ever practiced outdoors knows: it’s not the same as practicing indoors—and that’s exactly what makes it so appealing.

To make outdoor practice practical, you need gear that can handle it: grippy when it gets damp; durable enough for grass, sand, and forest floors; light enough to carry with you at all; and ideally made from materials that belong right where you’re practicing.

The mat that gets better when it’s damp

Natural cork meets natural rubber—and features a delicate, tactile laser engraving. The surface remains matte and comfortable, and the grip improves as soon as a little moisture comes into play. Outdoors on a warm summer evening, that’s exactly the right quality.

The Engraving System

An approach you feel rather than see

The engravings on the cork nature are not printed—they are burned into the cork surface and can therefore be felt with your fingertips. There are two systems to choose from:

Spiralignment —a subtle spiral pattern that helps you position your hands and feet symmetrically.
Brushed alignment —clean lines and a central mandala to guide standing poses and inversions.

Both versions are designed to be so understated that they don’t distract you in everyday life—but they’re there when you need them.

Cork accessories for asana practice

Blocks, rolls, and balls made of natural cork: warm to the touch, retain their shape under weight, and are pleasantly heavy enough to prevent anything from slipping away. Cork is a renewable resource—the bark of the cork oak is harvested without cutting down the tree.

Cotton yoga mat

Back to basics

Before yoga mats existed, there were yoga rugs. 100% cotton, hand-woven, no plastic. The big advantage on warm days: Cotton absorbs sweat instead of letting it pool on the surface like a plastic mat does—so your hands and feet stay grippy. And if the mat picks up grass and dirt from the field, just toss it in the washing machine at 30 °C.

Practical Tips

Five Things That Make a Difference Outdoors

1. Check the surface

Run your hand quickly over the surface: It’s better to find stones, pinecones, and thistles beforehand than while preparing for a handstand.

2. Double the mat

On soft or uneven surfaces, it’s best to place the yoga rug on top of a Yoga mat. The mat provides grip and cushioning, while the rug offers an absorbent surface.

3. Choose the right time

Early morning and the hour before sunset are more pleasant than the midday heat—and the light is more beautiful.

4. Consider the target audience

The sun at your back instead of in your eyes. Sounds trivial, but it saves every backbend.

5. Pack everything together

A large bag saves you a second trip back to the car.

Frequently Asked Questions About Practicing Outdoors

Everything you need to know about cork, carpet, and shipping. Can’t find your question here? We’d be happy to advise you personally.

Can I use a cork mat outdoors?

Yes—cork is perfectly suited for this. The surface becomes more grippy when slightly damp, and dirt can be brushed off or wiped away with a damp cloth. However, you shouldn’t expose the mat to prolonged wetness or direct, intense sunlight for hours on end, so that the natural rubber on the underside remains elastic for a long time.


How do I clean my mat and carpet after using them on the grass?

Cork: Shake out, wipe with a damp cloth, and let dry flat—do not put in the washing machine. The cotton yoga mat, on the other hand, can be machine-washed at 30 °C.


What is the difference between Spiralignment and Brushed Alignment?

Spiralignment is a delicate spiral pattern designed for the symmetrical alignment of hands and feet. Brushed alignment features clean lines and a central mandala. Both are engraved into the cork, making them tactile. You’ll find them on the yogimat® cork nature – art collection.


Does the yoga mat slip on the grass?

It works well on a mowed, level surface. On very soft or uneven ground, we recommend placing it over a mat—that way, you’ll have both cushioning and stability.


Will a 69-cm bag fit any mat?

The yogibag pro holds mats up to 69 cm in roll length—which covers all standard mats in standard widths. For XXL or extra-thick mats, check out the extra-big models.


What gear do I need to get started practicing outdoors?

A mat or rug, a block, and a strap are all you need. A cork block is practical for outdoor use because it won’t blow away and withstands moisture well—you’ll find all models in the cork collection.
