The scientific name for rush, Juncus, has the meaning of "to tie". Long ago, "rush" and "yoga" coincidentally originated in the same place in India. After many years, they have now met again and have come together as ``Tatami Yoga.'' Bringing new tatami culture to the future and the world

Why use tatami as a yoga mat?
For some reason, when I smell the scent of tatami, I feel calm. That's because of the healing power of rush grass. Even in the hot summer, a tatami room always has refreshing air. That's the deodorizing power of rush grass. Every day is full of nature and happiness, even in the city or in the room... ・ Tatami yoga will help you with that daily life.

The hem (edge) is also made using only natural materials, and it is made with sustainable materials down to the last detail.

Only domestic rushes grown in Kyushu are used. By comparison, you can see that the cross section of domestic rush is tightly packed with fibers. In other words, rush has elasticity. The epidermis is also thick and durable, making it difficult for rush debris to come out.
