Yoga Advice - Buying a Yoga Mat

Yoga has become so popular there is a wide variety of yoga mats to choose from. Consider the quality and price.  Yoga "sticky" mats. You might like to consider the following before  buying a mat for your practice on which to practice your yoga.

  • How can I clean it?
  • Will it last if I clean it frequently?
  • Does it stay rolled up when I get it out?
  • Does it have good traction with sweaty feet?
  • Does the mat go hard when left in a cold car?
  • How light is it?
  • Does the manufacturer give a guarantee for the mat?

If you are buying at a store or from a yoga teacher -  if the mat can be freed from it's packing and you have several mats available to choose from:

  • Press the mats with your fingers to compare the resistance to compression.
  • Moisten your hands to mimic sweaty feet then try to move your hand along the mat surface to determine the mats traction when damp.
  • Check the size of the mat.  Some mats can be so small as to be irritating to use.
  • Finally does your mat come with a bag.  If not bear in mind the cost of the purchase later.  It maybe be more economical to but your mat and holdall at the same time.
