Yoga Mat
Saka Premium Black Yoga Mat
yogavermont.comThe only mat you'll ever need. It's thick so it supports your bones (especially your knees and head) when they're pressing into the ground. Plus, it's really durable and won't ever pill away or disintegrate like other mats.

Is Your Sticky Mat NOT So Sticky?
I recently bought a new yoga mat because well, my hubby took the car that had my prized Black Mat in it. And I REFUSE to use the nasty, stinky, dirty, germ-infested public mats you can rent at the studio.
So I bought a new mat that's a little less thick and a lot less heavy - so I could travel with it.
Yoga-Paws, anyone?
Has anyone tried Yoga-Paws? I saw some online & wondered if anyone has used them before. They're supposed to be padded and grippy enough so that you don't have to use a mat.Yoga Class Etiquette
Whether you're planning on going to your first yoga class or you've been to a million, there are some things every good yogini needs to know. This way, you'll be able to respect the teacher, and respect yourself as well.

Strike a Yoga Pose: Camel
After hunching forward blogging all day my body craves backbends. Luckily for me, Camel pose is a staple in a yoga practice. Do this pose regularly to increase flexibility in your lower back, shoulders, and hip flexors but to also strengthen your quads and abs.
Beginner Yoga Knees...OUCH
I just started a beginner yoga class and I am hooked. My problem is my knees have become bruised after the class...Does anybody know if anybody makes "yoga inspired" knee pads? And are knee pads a good idea at the beginning?Strike a Yoga Pose: Bound Extended Side Angle
Although yoga poses vary between different types of yoga, Extended Side Angle is a basic standing posture you'll see in most any class you take. This pose strengthens your legs, and makes you feel bold, yet relaxed. We've already tried the variation of this pose known as Twisting Extended Side Angle, so here's another variation you can try.
Strike a Yoga Pose: Foot to Hand
What's not to love about a forward bend? These poses feel so good after a run to lengthen the lower back and hamstrings — just the tight places that need a good stretch. If you liked the variation of the pose known as Big Toe Standing Forward Bend, since you hold your toes to pull yourself more deeply into the pose, then you're going to love this variation for the deeper stretch it provides while simultaneously giving your wrists a sweet release.
