Where Art Meets Movement
High quality artistic mats created from Chelsea's original photography and inspired by nature, movement and faith.
Why Are Chelsea Mats Different?
Chelsea Mats add beauty to your movement and your space. Each mat begins with an original photograph by Chelsea of CBR Photography and is transformed into functional art using carefully selected materials. Designed for movement, strength, stretching, dance, prayer and rest, they are made to be used and beautiful enough to leave out.
Before there were Chelsea Mats, there was Chelsea and her camera.
Hi! I’m Chelsea! I’ve been a professional photographer since 2010, following light, laughter, and love all around the world.
My Chelsea Mat “aha!” moment arrived one morning when I rolled out my plain generic fitness mat to do Pilates online. I stood back, looked at it, and thought, hmmmm… I want to feel inspired on my mat, the place where I do hard things and take care of my body and mind. Then I began to wonder if I could design mats with my photography.
Sunsets, palm trees, sparkles on the ocean, and the word of God inspire me, so the idea came to design mats using my favourite light-filled images. I’ve teamed up with a certified manufacturer that makes my images look AMAZING on mats that feel FABULOUS!!

Our Bigger Purpose
I believe beautiful things can do important things!
A portion of every Chelsea Mat sale supports clean water initiatives in Northern Ghana through the ministry my Ghanaian Papa founded in 1983.
For me, this venture is about more than selling a beautiful product. It’s about using my talents and creativity to build the Kingdom and be of service.
I’ve been to Ghana and seen firsthand the positive impact a borehole can have on a village. Access to clean water creates opportunities that otherwise would not be possible.
That’s something I want to be a small part of. HalleluYAH!

2026 has been blessed with sacred self care sessions up levelled on this mat. It calls me, invites me, motivates me. On this mat, I feel the reflection of my watery core, I feel the soft support of floating in bliss and I feel the sparkle of my diving light moving through me. On this magical mat, I am blessed to stretch, move, meditate, read and even nap. I am so thankful!
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What makes Chelsea Mats different from ordinary mats?
Chelsea Mats are a fusion of professional performance and original fine-art photography. Unlike mass-produced products, each mat is a piece of artwork captured by Canadian photographer Chelsea, designed to bring beauty and intention into your everyday movement.
2. What are Chelsea Mats used for?
We call them Movement Mats. They are designed for a wide range of activities and practices including praise dancing, stretching, prayer, meditation, or simply providing a beautiful, cushioned sanctuary for your daily reflection.
3. What is the benefit of the Circular "Praise Mat"?
The Praise Mat is our signature collection. Its unique 360° shape removes the boundaries of a traditional rectangular mat, giving you complete freedom to move, dance, and pray in any direction without ever having to adjust your position.
4. Will I have a good grip on these mats?
Yes. Our 5mm PU Mats offer an elite, "bone-dry" grip for high-intensity movement. Our Suede and Circular Mats feature a premium microfiber surface that provides excellent traction, which actually improves as your hands become warmer or slightly damp.
5. Are the materials eco-friendly and safe?
Absolutely. Sustainability is at our core. All mats feature a 100% natural rubber base that is biodegradable and free from toxic glues, PVC, and harmful chemicals, making them safe for you and the planet.
6. How do I clean and care for my mat?
For daily care, simply wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleans, the microfiber suede mats are hand-washable. To preserve the vibrant photographic print, always air dry out of direct sunlight and roll with the art side facing out
7. How does my purchase support clean water in Ghana?
We believe in movement with purpose. A portion of the proceeds from every single mat sold is donated to clean water initiatives in Ghana, helping fund the construction of water wells for communities that need them most.
