The Importance of having your own MAT!

As a teacher of yoga I work with a lot of students. In the Wellness center members may be trying out yoga for the first time. If that is the case it is perfectly normal to use a mat that is supplied by the center.  However, the member could use a mat cover, which would be more hygienic for the user. Also, I tell my regulars if you do not have a mat you should get one, having your own mat is like having your own toothbrush!  Check out the items I have recommended, I love these yoga mats, they are extra thick and some are extra long (for us tall people) there is so much variety you can really pick a mat to match your personality. If you do yoga regularly your mat becomes your "second home” Also, I like the yoga mat covers, these are great for having a layer between you and rubber and or a "studio" used mat by other people.
