Choose the Material
The material of your yoga mat directly affects its comfort and safety. Here are some common materials to consider:
PVC: Low-cost and durable, but not eco-friendly.
TPE: Eco-friendly, lightweight, and provides good grip.
Natural Rubber: Excellent grip and environmentally friendly but slightly more expensive.
NBR: Thick and cushioned for added comfort, NBR yoga mats offer superior cushioning and non-slip properties.
Cotton-Linen: Naturally eco-friendly and breathable, but with average anti-slip performance. Suitable for static practices.
Suede Fabric: A natural fabric usually laminated with TPE or natural rubber. It is sweat-absorbent and easy to clean.
PU: A leather-like material with anti-slip textures on the surface. It offers excellent anti-slip performance and good sweat absorbency. It is usually laminated with natural rubber, and the price range is slightly higher.
Cork: Derived from plants, cork mats are the most eco-friendly option available, often laminated with natural rubber for added durability and grip.
Thickness and Firmness
Yoga mats typically range from 1.5mm to 2cm in thickness, depending on the material. Here are some considerations:
Beginners or Balancing Poses: Thicker mats are recommended (around 6mm to 2cm) to provide better joint protection.
Experienced Practitioners or Flow Yoga: Thinner mats (around 1.5mm to 5mm) are preferred for increased stability and closer connection to the ground.
Firmness: Aim for a moderate firmness. Mats that are too hard can be uncomfortable, while mats that are too soft can affect balance and stability.
Size
Ensure the mat’s length and width suit your height and usage habits. Generally, a mat around 183cm long and 61cm wide meets most needs. However, the size can also be customized. For those who prefer more space, extra-large yoga mats are available, typically measuring around 1m x 2m.
