# Art-Inspired Yoga Mats Spiritual Revolution's Mats Support Budding Artists and Photographers By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-07-01 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiritual-revolution References: [spiritualrevolutionyoga](http://spiritualrevolutionyoga.com/product/the-transcendence-mat/) Yoga mats by Spiritual Revolution will appeal to yogis with an eye for art. The brand supports emerging photographers and artists by transferring their designs on [yoga mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yoga-capsule-collection) using water-based inks. From rainbows to psychedelic patterns and surreal landscapes, these mats remind yogis of all ages to appreciate the beauty in the world. The mats themselves are made from a [durable tree rubber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crossover-rug-collection) that's been bonded with a super absorbent suede cloth, which helps to create a better grip when tackling those [tough poses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/les-mills-yoga). Although the designs are a huge part of what make Spiritual Revolution's mats so special, it's also worth noting that the mats are slip-proof, free of any chemicals—they're also completely machine washable. The mats are also biodegradable and fully recyclable once they have served their primary purpose in life. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Art-inspired Yoga Mats:** The trend of art-inspired yoga mats presents an opportunity for artists and photographers to tap into the fitness industry and reach a new audience. - **Supporting Emerging Artists:** The trend of supporting emerging artists through collaborations with fitness brands creates a disruptive innovation opportunity to bridge the gap between art and wellness industries. - **Sustainable and Eco-friendly Yoga Gear:** The trend of sustainable and eco-friendly yoga gear offers opportunities for companies to develop innovative products that align with the growing consumer demand for environmentally friendly options in the fitness industry. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fitness Industry:** The fitness industry can capitalize on the trend of art-inspired yoga mats by partnering with artists and photographers to create unique and appealing workout accessories. - **Art Industry:** The art industry can explore collaborations with fitness brands to showcase artists' work on yoga mats, expanding their reach and finding new revenue streams. - **Wellness Industry:** The wellness industry can leverage the trend of sustainable and eco-friendly yoga gear to meet the growing demand for environmentally conscious products and offer a more holistic experience to consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Heat-Reactive Yoga Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aurora-colorchanging-yoga-mat.md) - [Galaxy-Themed Vegan Yoga Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-yoga-mat.md) - [Absorbent Colorful Yoga Towels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-yoga-towel.md) - [Precise Alignment Yoga Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omalas-align-pro-yoga-mat.md) - [Celebratory Yoga Mat Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b-mat.md) - [Eco-Friendly Yoga Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-b-mat.md) - [Balance Board Yoga Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/powers-yoga-yogaboard.md) - [Intelligent Fitness Companions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wisemat.md) - [Colourfully Woven Bath Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bath-mat-collection.md)
