Kaya Essentials
Sustainable Yoga Accessories
The small things that carry a practice — straps, bottles, and totes in cotton, cork, and steel. Nothing plastic, nothing disposable.
A mindful practice deserves mindful gear all the way down — not a beautiful natural mat carried in a polyester bag with a plastic bottle. Kaya Essentials rounds out your kit with the same materials philosophy as our mats: renewable cork, woven cotton, and durable stainless steel, chosen to last years rather than seasons.
Pair the strap with a Heritage cotton rug for a fully woven setup, or tuck a cork bottle beside your floral cork mat and matching blocks. Orders over $100 ship free.

Accessories are where plastic sneaks back into a conscious practice — foam blocks, nylon straps, single-use bottles. Each Kaya essential replaces one of those defaults with a natural material that performs better and lasts longer: cotton that grips without stickiness, cork that insulates and feels warm in the hand, steel that keeps water cold through a full day of classes.
Why natural materials matter is a longer story — we tell it in our non-toxic materials guide and on our sustainability page.
Yoga accessory FAQs
What makes these yoga accessories sustainable?
The same standard as everything Kaya makes: natural materials over plastic. The strap is woven cotton, the bottles pair reusable insulated stainless steel with a natural cork wrap, and the tote is made with cork — bark that is harvested without cutting down a single tree and regrows for the next harvest.
What is a yoga strap for?
A strap extends your reach while you build flexibility. Loop it around your foot in seated forward folds, bind hands behind the back in shoulder openers, or use it to hold alignment in poses your hands cannot reach yet. It is the simplest, most beginner-friendly prop there is.
Why cork on a water bottle?
Cork is a natural insulator that stays comfortable in the hand — no clammy metal, no slipping when your palms are sweaty after practice. It is the same renewable Portuguese cork used across our mats and blocks, so your whole kit shares one material story.
Do the accessories match the Kaya mats?
They are designed to sit together. The Mudra tote and both bottles share the warm, natural palette of our cork mats, and the cotton strap complements the Heritage rugs. Spend $100 or more and standard shipping is free.
