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!!!
