5 comments about Skidless Yoga Towel.
- I was so frustrated with those so called "sticky mats", my hands would slide forward in simple poses like downward facing dog.
So I decided to give the $50 skidless yoga towel a try.
This worked pretty well for my slipping hands, but i had a new problem. I was unable to get traction for my feet and felt as though they would slip up when in many of the commonly practiced poses in yoga. (downward facing dog, even poses like triangle and extended side angle). I really tried giving this towel a chance but ended up purchasing a harmony yoga mat (those rubber mats) which greatly reduced my slippery yoga experiences.
I would not recommend the skidless towel for your entire mat, maybe you may have better luck with just the hand towel.
I realized with yoga mats that every person is different, so what doesn't work for me, may work for you. I just thought I would give my 2 cents.
- This is exactly what I wanted!
I've had so many slipping problems in my Ashtanga yoga class. Both my hands and feet would slide and it was soooo hard to hold poses. Here is the answer!
It works great! I'm very happy.
- I want to give the person who created this thing a hug.
It is very soft on the top, and has tons of tiny little rubber-like dots on the bottom, which grip the floor or yoga mat underneath like the toes of a tree frog. I used to slip all over the place on my mat, and I don't move at all on this. Makes for a stellar down dog!
- After being treated for severe post traumatic stress I decided to finally give yoga a try. I was over weight, stressed, and unhappy with my life. I decided to try a yoga studio near my house, they do a hot power yoga... it's very intense. They say you burn between 600 and 800 calories during a class.
So I began going everyday... and that was 2 months ago. I have lost 20 pounds, went from not being able to hold a downward dog for more than 10 seconds to going to a 4 hour arm balancing workshop that will help with my crow and other arm balances that I couldn't imagine doing two months ago. Along with the health benefits I am saving a lot of money on the thearapy bill :) Because a good yoga instucter is like a therapist.
Ok so nothing about the mat yet but here goes. This is the second mat like this that I have purchased. I am so pleased with the first one but couldn't take how many times I had to launder it. (I practice in front of the heat lamps and sweat... a lot!)
The point of this of couse is that I highly recommend yoga (especially heated) for anyone in need of an life altering experience. And I don't believe there is a better product out there to help with the sweat and skidding involved in the practice.
Namaste!
- Bought this for doing "hot" yoga, and I love it. Works well for absorbing sweat. Read the other reviews that said that the colors ran, so I bought a white one. If I wear bright colored clothing to class, the colors sweat into the towel! Now it's a light purple/gray color, but the towel still works fine. I might buy a second one because I use it everyday. Can't imagine using it twice in a row without washing.
