I have been a bit lax in my yoga practice this summer/fall, but it always helps me with my flexibility when I am marathon training. Since I take hot (well, warm) yoga, I need a mat towel to prevent slipping and sliding to catch the sweat. (TMI?)
I was offered the opportunity to test and giveaway a yoga towel from Aurorae Yoga. They make a mat towel and a smaller sport towel. This yoga towel is lightweight and easy to care for. They say that the towel “will easily out perform any ordinary cotton towel.” For yoga, you place the towel on the top of your yoga mat to prevent your hands and feet from slipping. It also absorbs sweat. Aurorae’s Slip Free Yoga Mat Towel is eco safe, hygienic and super absorbent. It is made of a lush microfiber material. The mat towel is 72″ x 24″. It comes in 9 colors. It has a 2 year 100% satisfaction guarantee.
I tested it out in my Core Power yoga class. The temperature in the room was close to 100 degrees. The towel is slightly larger than my mat and did not slip or bunch up as I did the Power Yoga class. The microfiber is thinner than other yoga mat towels that I have used, but it was soft and comfortable on my hands and feet. It absorbed the sweat well. It definitely got the job done! I also like that it rolls up really small. It would also work well for traveling to use in a hotel gym or on the floor. The towel washed well and dried quickly. I am definitely a fan. The towels reasonably priced at $24.95 on Amazon right now. Click here to read more specs and to learn more.
