the ultra-dense mat<br />
is comfortable and<br />
cushioned to protect<br />
joints and give support.<br />
The closed-cell<br />
surface prevents<br />
sweat from seeping<br />
into the mat and<br />
its latex-free, with<br />
non-toxic, emissionsfree<br />
manufacturing.<br />
Additionally, it’s formulated<br />
to help your<br />
grip stronger so you<br />
can hold each pose<br />
with confidence.<br />
The standard mat<br />
is 71 inches long,<br />
but some colors are<br />
available in extralong,<br />
coming in at<br />

length, $120-$140<br />
depending on color<br />

Lululemon The<br />
Towel<br />
It’s not a requirement<br />
to use a yoga towel<br />
but it helps to add<br />
traction, acting as a<br />
slip-resistant layer<br />
between you and<br />
your mat for extra<br />
grip on when transitioning<br />
between<br />
poses. This absorbent,<br />
lightweight<br />
option is made from<br />
slip-resistant microfibre.<br />
The one-size<br />
towel comes in a<br />
variety of colors,<br />
allowing you to blend<br />
in with options like<br />
grey and black, or<br />
add some pizzazz to<br />
your practice with<br />
fun patterns and<br />
vibrant colors. $38-<br />

color at Lululemon,<br />

Gaiam Studio<br />
Select On-The-Go<br />
Yoga Mat Carrier<br />
From home to car<br />
to studio and back<br />
again, carrying your<br />
rolled mat can be a<br />
bother – especially if<br />
it decides to unroll at<br />
the worst time. This<br />
carrier lets you easily<br />
store and transfer<br />
your mat, fitting<br />
nearly any size mat.<br />
It is made from a<br />
quick-dry Nylon fabric<br />
and features an internal<br />
hook-and-loop<br />
strap to secure your<br />
mat. The outer straps<br />
make for easy carrying<br />
over the shoulder<br />
or backpack-style,<br />
and there’s even a<br />
zippered pocked to<br />
keep your phone,<br />
keys or wallet secure<br />
during class. $20<br />

URBNFit Yoga<br />
Block<br />
A block is often used<br />
as an extension of<br />
the arms, to help<br />
balance, elongate<br />
your stretching and<br />
ensure posture<br />
alignment. Another<br />
purpose is to support<br />
the back, head and<br />
hips and help you<br />
hold poses for longer<br />
periods of time. This<br />
standard size block<br />
can also be used for<br />
meditation, Pilates,<br />
and other workouts.<br />
The lightweight block<br />
is made from EVA<br />
foam, which is recyclable<br />
and non-toxic.<br />
The material is nonslip<br />
and moistureresistant.<br />
It also<br />
comes with a downloadable<br />
mobile PDF<br />
yoga block workout<br />
guide and stretch<br />
strap. Available in<br />
pink, purple and teal.<br />

Hydro Flask<br />
32-Ounce Wide<br />
Mouth Bottle<br />
with Flex Cap<br />
You don’t have to<br />
be a yogi to be a<br />
fan of a great water<br />
bottle. However, you<br />
will definitely need<br />
to keep hydrated<br />
before, during and<br />
after class. This<br />
vessel keeps your<br />
beverages chilled<br />
(and carbonated),<br />
whether you’re in<br />
the studio or off<br />
on an adventure.<br />
The stainless-steel<br />
growler has a Fresh<br />
Carry System, which<br />
ensures a leakproof<br />
seal, temperature<br />
control (keeping liquids<br />
hot for up to 12<br />
hours and cold for up<br />
to 24) and portability.<br />
This particular version<br />
holds 32 ounces<br />
for all-day hydration,<br />
but both smaller<br />
and larger options<br />
are available. Hydro<br />
Flasks are BPA- and<br />
phthalate-free.<br />
Available in a large<br />
variety of colors with<br />
additional lids sold<br />
