The Yoga Mat We’re Loving Right Now
When it comes to yoga, we talk a LOT about the choices we make in our practice. From what class to take, what style feels good in our body that day, what props to use, which teacher to practice with, and even what outfit to wear.
But one thing that often gets overlooked?
The mat.
We believe the mat might be one of the most important choices you can make when practicing yoga. Afterall, it is the home of your practice. So finding one that actually feels good underneath you can make a world of a difference.
There are so many options out there, so how are you supposed to know which direction to go? Well we’ve done our research and taken the guess work out of it for you, and we’re thrilled to share we’ve found a mat that has stolen our yogi hearts.
*Tejara™ Yoga Mat has entered the chat *
We’ve tried almost every yoga mat under the sun, and nothing seems to even come close to the Tejara™ mat. The shining star of this product is by far the grip . Have you ever found yourself in downward facing dog but you can barely keep up with the teacher or stay present in your body because you’re fighting for your life to not slip and fall flat on your face? Yeah, we’ve been there too. But we can say with full confidence that is not the case with this mat.
The 100% natural rubber gives your hands and feet the perfect grip that's not slippery, not too sticky, but instead it’s justttttttt right. The stability of this mat allows you to ground down into your practice, no matter what class you signed up for. Not to mention, the 6mm thickness is chef’s kiss for any yogis with sensitive knees. A little extra cushion goes a long way.
A Little about Tejara™
One of the things we really love about Tejara™ is the amount of intention behind what they're creating. Their mats are made from all natural rubber, and they put a big emphasis on sustainability, transparency, and making products that are built to last. They are also committed to being honest about their materials and how their products are made, which is something we really appreciate. And we can’t forget to share that they’re based right here in our home state of Connecticut.
Is the Tejara™ Mat Good for a Breathe 2 Flow Animal Yoga Class?
If you’ve ever been to a Breathe 2 Flow animal yoga class, you know the animals aren’t exactly expected to stay off your mat. In fact, we encourage the animals we partner with to explore, interact, and make themselves right at home while you practice. It’s part of the fun!
That means we need a yoga mat that can keep up.
The Tejara™ mat is incredibly durable, making it a great option when your practice includes a few extra feet, paws, or hooves wandering across your mat. Whether you’re practicing yoga with puppies, bunnies, goats, or another one of our animal friends, this mat can handle a little extra action.
Some of our Breathe 2 Flow classes are also held outdoors, which makes good grip even more important. On those hot summer days when we’re practicing under the sun, the exceptional grip of the Tejara™ mat helps you stay grounded without worrying about sliding around while you flow.
At Breathe 2 Flow, our yoga classes are designed to be welcoming and beginner-friendly, and we believe your equipment should make yoga feel more approachable too. The last thing you should be thinking about during class is whether your hands are slipping in downward-facing dog while a puppy is simultaneously climbing on you.
So whether your next practice is with us under the sun and surrounded by animals; or gentle and easeful at home, we fully believe the Tejara™ mat is worth checking out.
She really is that girl.
