August 2008 Archives

When I think about who I am as a person, it is surely not a bandwagon jumper.  However, I found myself in this particular position today.  Having sworn off hot yoga over 5 years ago, I decided to try it again.  I mean, hey, the only thing I love about the class is finishing... ok, well, maybe the thought of ridding my body of toxins.

 

Jumping in again recently, I tried classes at my local Denver studio.  Hmmm... still no love, yet an intense desire to get rid of every last toxin!  I found myself absolutely drenched in sweat, slipping something fierce.  Looking around the class, at the seasoned participants, I noticed something placed over people's yoga mats and I too had to try it!!!!

 

Alas, yogitoes skidless mats!!!  A sweat absorbing, gripping and hygienic layer to keep your downward dog strong!!!  Making a visual assessment of the class, well over ½ the yogis had one, and yes, I joined in... I jumped the bandwagon!  Now there is something everyone needs to know about people in Colorado, they are surely the most fit people I have ever seen! IN THE WORLD!!!  They know a thing or two about their equipment and take physical activity seriously.  -If you don't believe me, and you happen to be visiting Colorado, head over to Red Rocks Amphitheater and watch people bounding up and down the stairs!  Heck, to go to a simple concert your VO2 max (also known as your peak oxygen uptake level) has to be close to elite status.  I digress...

 

Anyway, if you practice any kind of hot yoga, run to the nearest store and get yourself a Yogitoes Skidless mat!  Available in a spectrum of colors, coinciding with the chakras, plus a few more.  Not only do they help you prevent slipping, Yogitoes proves to be a very altruistic company helping make the world at large a better place.  You will be happy you helped contribute!!!
