About the artist:
Mark Longenecker, originally from New Jersey, grew up skateboarding and surfing along the Jersey shore. Born of artistic parents, his dreams were always supported. He chose to attend the Savannah College of Art and Design and graduated with a degree in Graphic Design. From there he moved down to Key West, FL and worked as a graphic designer, designing logos and other artwork for the local businesses, as well as Jimmy Buffett’s recording studio. Living in the Keys helped him develop a tropical island vibe in his artwork that he now calls “tropistyle”. He then joined Goldie’s Tattoo, the shop where his roommates worked and got a spot as an apprentice. After a shop trip to a tattoo convention in Miami he was hooked for life. There he saw first hand what the lifestyle of a truly sought after tattoo artist was all about. Longenecker decided to settle in Cocoa Beach in 2004 and open up his dream studio, Endless Summer Tattoo. Mark has made himself a fixture of the Cocoa Beach community, donating his time and art to many local charity events and fundraisers. In 2014, was was a competitor on Spike TV’s show Ink Master. He made it to the semi-finals out of 18 artists and was recognized for his will to fight and never give up. Find mark at: Instagram @marklongnecker and endlesssummertattoo.com

Care
Cleaning the top (cork side) of the mat is recommended once a week with normal practice. If used daily or for hot yoga clean the cork after every practice. This helps prevent body’s oils from building up and keeps the mat looking and smelling fresh. Spray the mat with our Detox Cleaning Spray or a natural yoga mat cleaner and allow to air dry with the mat laying out flat.
Grip Tip
The cork surface increases grip when wet. Use our Grip Spray or sprinkle water on your mat where your hand and feet go before practice for added traction.

Thank Mother Nature for Making Cork
What is cork and where is it grown? Cork is the outer bark of the Cork Oak Tree which grows in the Mediterranean area. These cork oak forests support one of the world’s highest levels of forest biodiversity.
Harvesting cork: Trees are not cut down to harvest cork, rather, the bark is harvested by hand every 9 years. Cork oak trees can live up to 300 years!

As a runner with terrible knees who does yoga to ease the pain this mat is a game changer for me. No more folding up my old mat under my knees with the Aura’s ample padding. The mat has great grip and sweat absorption as well. I loved the previous comment from Emily about the elephant and yoga body types… yoga is for everyone, we can all enjoy our practice and this mat helps a lot! I’m a bit bias as the elephant’s artist has done many of my tattoos so we match (^_^).
I would recommend this mat to anyone who needs a bit extra support or grip, or if you’re like me and tend to fall frequently (learning!). <3

I already had an original Yoloha mat that a friend had gifted me, and I really didn’t need another one. But when I saw this design in the artist collection contest, I knew I had to buy it if it won. Looking down at this majestic elephant during my practice is both calming and empowering, especially not seeing my body type represented in most yoga classes. The Aura mat is squishier and much easier on my knees than the original (which I still love). It does have a different, less earthy smell than the original, but it’s worth it to me for the added comfort. I’m using it to teach my first class in a couple of days. I hope it lasts forever!!
