Top Yoga Mats of 2013

Jade Yoga Mats

Yoga mats are the most important part of yoga. It is the only thing I would think you need, besides having your body. The feeling you should want from a yoga mat varies for different people, but in the end what everyone wants is comfort. There are three specific mats that I would like to focus on today which are: Jade Harmony Professional Yoga Mat, Manduka PROlite Yoga Mat and the Jade Fusion Yoga Mat.

My personal favorite has to be the Jade Harmony Professional Yoga Mat. This mat has a nice natural surface that provides great comfort and has fantastic traction with wet and dry surfaces, so you can do yoga anywhere with this mat! The one problem one might find with this mat is the open cell technology used to create this mat still has bacteria and oils, but it hasn't been a problem with me. On the bright side, not only can this mat be used for any kind of yoga, it is also perfect for Pilates.

Manduka Yoga Mats

The Manduka PROlite Yoga Mat is also a one of a kind mat. This mat is very easy to cary around and extremely easy to clean. A problem I have run into a couple times is when this mat gets wet, it becomes very slippery. Since the mat gets slippery, hot yoga would not be preferable, but every other kind of yoga is great for this mat, especially outdoor yoga.

Lastly, the Jade Fusion Yoga Mat is great also. This specific mat is perfect for any kind of yoga, and you really have a natural feel when using it. Jade Yoga's mats want to give their user the natural feeling of doing yoga, and this mat does that perfectly. Even though this mat has a lot of perks, it does have a few cons. This mat is not easy to carry around, and when you get it wet it is a hassle to get dry.

When someone does yoga, they should find a mat that fits them. Everyone should have a natural feel with there, and not just choose the best one.

Namaste.
