What to look for in a yoga mat

17 January 2021

When choosing a yoga mat, there a few important factors you should consider if you want to get the very best out of your yoga practice. Here’s our guide to everything you should be looking out for.

Grip

The last thing you want is a yoga mat that slips and slides around. Our super grippy YoYoga mats offer you ultimate non-slip confidence, even when wet with sweat! They are also highly absorbent and quick drying. You can enjoy the confidence of a strong grip that allows for ease of movement and flow, while keeping you grounded and injury-free.

Convenience

Our mats come with a complimentary carry bag, so you can quickly and easily grab your mat and go. Perfect for busy people who are always on the move!

Design

Our unique alignment system works as a navigational tool throughout your yoga practice. Carefully placed navigational markers provide as much or as little guidance as you need, so you have the reassurance of always knowing what goes where.

Material

Yoga mats can sometimes be made from materials that are bad for the environment. YoYoga mats are made from polyurethane (PU), a biodegradable material that is far better for the environment than PVC. In addition, we use high grade, non-toxic and eco-friendly ink on all our mats, making them much kinder to the planet.

Enjoy a perfect yoga practice…every time

Uniquely, with YoYoga, you can match your mat to your chakra. Chakras are an ancient concept taken from Hinduism and Tantric Buddhism that describe the ebb and flow of your body’s energy. When your chakras are in balance, they work together as a radiant force that animates your body. There are seven chakras, represented by seven colours, that create a full energy system. Everyone has a dominant chakra. Choosing the YoYoga mat that matches your chakra will align you for the perfect yoga flow, every single time you step on the mat. Find your personal chakra here.
