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.
