This is how it all began
Do you remember ever saying "I can't do this," but then something encouraged you and you discovered you were capable of doing that and even much more?
In the case of yoga, finding the courage to do it starts with rolling out a yoga mat on the floor.
After that point, there are no limits and no turning back.
That's how our yoga journey began, the first day the COVID pandemic and the strict quarantine hit. We always found the perfect excuse not to try it, never finding the time.
Why are we called "Namastecita"?
Our first step was to order a yoga mat. Easy peasy. When it arrived, we put on a YouTube video and that day we discovered how much we'd been missing for so long.
A little daily yoga practice was what made our quarantine much more bearable. Every day we began by greeting each other not with the typical "Namaste," but rather, we adapted it to our style and turned it into a "Namastecita." Simply because that's how we felt. And that's what yoga is all about: feeling it.
And from there, we didn't stop. Virtual classes were followed by in-person classes, and our initial yoga mat was followed by others.
More Than Just Practice
Within a few months, the first mats needed replacing, and we ordered a mat identical to the one Namastecita uses today. We love our product deeply: years go by, and they remain as functional as they were the first day.
Our Mission
Now that we've found the perfect yoga mat, our mission is to bring it to the world.
They also gave life to Namastecita…
Behind every mat, playlist, and beautiful email, there are tons of wonderful people who contributed their bit (or yogi glitter) to make this possible. They are part of this community, and although they sometimes work in the shadows, their energy shines through in every detail:
Olga - The Magic Chamber
She's responsible for giving so many of our Reels movement, rhythm, and good vibes. Behind the camera, but with an eye for capturing the whole yogic essence (and the occasional hilarious fail).
Vero - The artist of colors
The mind (and heart) behind the Viva la Vida collection. Vero turned our crazy ideas into even crazier, more magical designs. If you see something that makes you want to dance just by looking at it... it's probably her fault.
Seba - Our Amazon (and Photoshop) guru
Without Seba, our mats wouldn't have landed on Amazon, nor would our photos be as beautiful. Basically, he's the one who made our products not only exist... but look good!
Amanda - The Zen Creative
The brilliant mind behind the designs of the DARA collection. His strokes and ideas are like a visual savasana that leaves you peaceful and happy.
Rachel - The Content Magician
She arrived as a college intern and ended up helping our ads shine, our website look beautiful, and our content sparkle. She taught us that multitasking is also an art.
Abbie - The voice behind the networks
Another university gem that helped us keep our social media alive and create content with flow.
Andrés - The SEO Ninja
You may not see it, but thanks to Andrés, when you search "beautiful yoga mat" on Google, we appear. Our SEO guardian angel who works his magic on search engines while you flow on the mat.
