What is a Yoga Mat?

Yoga mats are available in a variety of sizes, colors and thicknesses.

How do I clean my Yoga mat?

Although there are now a large variety of yoga sticky mats on the market most are still comprised of a pvc vinyl material. These yoga mats can/should be cleaned by using warm water and a grease cutting soap. The mat can then be towel dried or air dried. Yoga mats should be cleaned prior to initial use and then every so often - depending on use. Mat disinfectant sprays can also be used and are strongly recommended if multiple people are using the same yoga mat.

Features to Look for

  • Smooth surface
    • Provides extra stickiness and grip.
  • Internal, center threading gives this mat exceptional strength and durability against tearing.

    • Latex free
    • Mesh
    • Cotton
    • Rubber
