Recycle Your Mat: The backstory
 Yoga
practitioner and Recycle Your Mat founder Stephanie Stano has been
passionate about nature and social issues since her youth. Always
active in the outdoors, Stephanie
knew at a young age that nature nurtures the potential inside us all.
During her career she's focused on working for non-profit
organizations, outdoor lifestyle companies and volunteering her time to
social causes. It’s this passion for the outdoors and personal
development that are the foundation of Recycle Your Mat.
Since
Recycle Your Mat’s beginning in early 2008, the business has been
centered around two main objectives - recycle and upcycle mats as new
products and reuse mats through donation. These objectives are met
through yoga mat collection at yoga studios, fitness centers and
through individual’s shipments of yoga mats.
Yoga restores our body, soul and mind, and the materials
that support our practice can save mountains, streams and other
biodynamic places.
Recycle
Your Mat adheres to the triple bottom line by striving for planetary,
community and financial health. Our mission, as
individuals and together as an organization, is to solve
environmental challenges in a socially responsible manner.
