The people behind STIRO

We are Stefanie, Fritz, and Teresa – and we believe that good training begins with the right foundation. As a physiotherapist, Teresa sees firsthand every day what happens when that foundation is missing: knee problems on surfaces that are too hard, joint pain from unstable mats, and frustration instead of the joy of movement. At some point, it became clear: we were no longer going to wait for someone to build the mat we wanted – we would do it ourselves.

That is how STIRO was born. A training mat that combines stability and joint protection, safeguarding both the body and the environment. Made from sustainable materials, durable, functional, and so comfortable that training feels right again.

Behind STIRO are three founders with medical and therapeutic backgrounds, united by a common vision: to make movement safer, more sustainable, and more accessible.
