Which type of yoga are you going to practice?
In our best yoga mat reviews we have taken a look at the different styles of yoga and the matching mat to perform it. Gaiam yoga mats or Manduka yoga mats are very popular as general meditation mats. They are a good choice for beginners but tend to be more expensive. Nike yoga mats for example are rather general fitness mats or workout mats designed for special fitness moves or positions. Also consider how intensive your yoga poses are. If you rather opt for relaxing moves and would therefore prefer comfort, go for a model made from cotton or virgin wool. More dynamic, intensive workouts will require a fitness map that doesn’t slip ideally made from PVC or rubber.
Where can I buy a cheap yoga mat?
Especially for beginners buying the cheapest yoga mat may seem attractive as some models are particularly low priced. Though we recommend not to bargain because some poorly manufactured mats are often made with artificial material an can include pollutants. If you want good value for money and are looking for low prices and good offers check out our ‘price tip’ from the best yoga mats in our reviews 2016 above.
This is our best value for money pick meaning you’ll get very decent quality whilst not having to pay a fortune.
Do you want to buy a top quality yoga mat?
If you’re familiar with yoga and want to upgrade to higher quality you’ll probably have to pay more. Some of the best Mats by Gaiam, Manduka or Jade will be a relative expensive investment so be sure of your preferred yoga style and intensity. Some online shops have great offers for top quality models and you can also check out yoga mats for sale, as you might find a real bargain. In our yoga mat reviews 2016 we have picked a ‘top-rated’ yoga mat that in our opinion has all the qualities to be called the UK’s best yoga mat.
Where are you going to practise yoga?
The best yoga mats are universally usable though certain types are more suitable in different surroundings. As you’ve already thought about which style of yoga you’ll be doing you should also consider where you’ll practise it. How much space does your surrounding offer? Choose a smaller sized mat to save space. Choose a thicker mat if you’re meditating outside for prolonged comfort. Our yoga mat reviews 2016 showed that most models from Gaiam and Nike yoga mats to Manduka and Jade yoga mats come in different sizes, colours and materials, offering you a broad selection from which to choose the most suitable mat for you.
