ABOUT yogaknees
Our yogaknees team shares an intention to bring innovative and helpful products to you, on and off the mat. The goal is to have exceptional products that are highly effective, while honoring the uniqueness and true nature of each person who wears them.
Yogaknees are currently designed in Brunswick, Georgia and sewn in the neighboring city, Waycross, and in Portland, Oregon, by very professional, caring, and dedicated seamstresses with a meticulous attention to detail and quality. Our fabrics are carefully selected, cut to size, and sewn individually, making your yogaknees as unique as you are.
The idea for yogaknees began years ago, when one runner turned yogi could not comfortably put her knees on the mat. Since her favorite yoga at the time was vinyasa flow, trying to place a blanket or cushion under her knees, stay focused, and in the flow was not easy. Even in gentle yoga with plenty of time, trying to get knees supported in certain asanas proved to be a distraction. Nor were these good solutions for enjoying yoga in the park or on a paddle board. Thus began the quest for a better way.
From this intention, came a basic wearable lightweight design to add comfort to knees by taking weight and pressure off of the kneecaps. In addition, a person can easily slide yogaknees on and around their knees for maximum comfort, at any given time
Yogaknees have continued to be vetted and improved from the shared intention of those who understand the need, including yoga teachers, seamstresses, athletes, yogis, friends and customers who generously give inspiration and feedback.
We love the idea of each of us giving a drop of kindness to oneself, and then flowing this kindness to our worldwide community. We are delighted to donate at least 6% of yogaknees sales to good causes.
