When are you open?
Five days a week: Monday to Friday, 10am - 5pm except bank and public holidays.
Can I come and shop in person?
Yes, we always like to see visitors at our yoga warehouse / yoga shop in North London. Yogis, non-yogis, children and pets are welcome.
Our address is 32 Clarendon Road, London N8 0DJ. We are short walk away from Turnpike Lane underground (on the Piccadilly Line) and Hornsey British Rail stations. There is ample free parking outside our units and bars to lock up bicycles.
If you are travelling from afar you might want to visit some of the wonderful Indian food shops on Turnpike Lane itself, on the way from Turnpike Lane underground to our premises.
Is everything online available instore?
Almost everything - there are a few lines (eg Asquith London clothing) which we do not hold in stock in the shop. Feel free to call if you want to check on anything in particular.
What sort of yoga mat should I choose?
For specific queries about products, check the product pages in the shop. If you can’t find an answer there, or you have any other questions for our Customer Service Team, please email help@yogamatters.com or give us a call on 020 8888 8588 and we’ll answer you as soon as possible.
Is it cheaper to order online?
No - our prices are the same online, offline and in our store. There are some offers that are only available on our website, however, and online vouchers and codes can only be used on the web. The website is the quickest and easiest way to place you order.
Can I leave items in my online shopping cart for later?
Yes - for 7 days. If you have an account and log in when browsing you are able to retrieve the items in your cart from any computer. If you are not logged in you are able to retrieve the items in your cart from the computer you were using when you selected the items. If you want to keep the items in your cart for longer than 7 days, you need to visit your basket before the 7 day limit has passed - this will start a new period of 7 days.
How do I know when my order will be sent?
We aim to process all orders within one working day of receiving them; orders placed in the morning usually get dispatched on the same day. Please see about delivery for more information.
When can I expect my items to arrive?
If you select our standard service, goods will usually arrive within 2-4 working days (not guaranteed). There are also options available at the checkout for faster services, such as guaranteed next day delivery. Please see about delivery for more information.

What is a backorder?
A backorder is an order in our system of any products that are currently out of stock, that we expect to ship to you at a later date.

We do not charge for backorders until they are ready to send to you. Usually, we do not ask for an additional delivery charge.

Yes, under our ‘No quibbles’ guarantee, you can return most items for exchange or refund within 30 days. Please see our Terms & conditions for more information.
Why do our Euros prices change sometimes?
Because Yogamatters HQ is in London, our products are priced in pounds (GBP). We regularly convert these prices into Euros using an up-to-date exchange rate – so you know you are paying a fair price whatever happens with the currencies.
What is VAT?
VAT stands for Value Added Tax, which is a compulsory charge on most goods sold by us (not including books and some food products) within the European Union (EU). That includes the UK! If you live outside the EU, this tax will be automatically deducted.
I have a VAT number, how do I avoid being charged for VAT?
If you live in the UK, we are required by law to charge you VAT, but if you are outside the UK and have an EU Tax Registration number, we can set up your account so that VAT is automatically taken off the prices you see and the prices you are charged. Please email our Customer Service team with you VAT number and contact details before placing your order. We will change your account details to include your VAT number.
Do you offer wholesale discounts?
Oh yes! Many yoga teachers, yoga centres and organisations purchase from us at excellent bulk rates. Please see wholesale information.
We are a registered charity, can you knock off the VAT?
We still have to charge you VAT.
We are a registered charity, can you give us extra discount?
Yes - we may be able to give an extra 10% discount. This will depend on what you are ordering and what discount you are already receiving. Please contact our Customer Services team.
Is it safe to buy online?
Yes, it’s very safe to buy online from us. We are an accredited retailer with ISIS, the Internet Shopping is Safe scheme, and we subscribe to the Safebuy web code of practice. Our checkout process is secured by GeoTrust. Read more about security here.

Do teachers get discounts?

You can choose to pay in Euros or Sterling by using the € - £ link at the top right of any product page, and you will be charged in the relevant currency. You can also choose to see prices displayed in many other currencies - but these rates are indicative only and you will be charged in either sterling GBP or Euros.
