Yoga Mat

Yoga poses often require balance, and with a slick floor it’s hard to achieve that balance. A yoga mat- also called a sticky mat- gives you the traction needed to hold poses without your hands or feet slipping out from underneath you. A mat is definitely worth the twenty bucks you may spend on it.

A yoga mat will also provide a little cushioning from hard floors. If you are performing yoga at home on carpet the mat will protect you from carpet burn. They roll up neatly so they compact and easy to store.

A yoga mat can come in many colors, but they are all usually the same shape and size- long and rectangular. Mats should be cleaned after every use to keep the surface free of grit and to eliminate germs. Some yoga stores also sell a mat spray that has a relaxing scent to breathe during your workout.
