I got my current exercise mat when I did my hypnobirthing classes so at that point there was no plan to do yoga on it. I find it quite slippy... anyone got any recommendations for good yoga mats?? Tia 🧘‍♀️

I can't help much, although you've got me thinking! I have had the same Reebok yoga mat for years, and I do find that I slip on it when I get sweaty!! I had a bit of a look and, if I were to buy a new mat, this one looks quite good:

Another thought I had was that a mat designed for hot yoga might be a good idea, since everyone gets really sweaty doing that!

Good luck anyway xxx

I love my mat. It’s a Yoga Matters one, and my daughters bought it for me the Christmas before last. It’s lovely and “sticky”, unlike my previous cheapie which had me slipping and sliding all over the place. 🧘‍♀️

Just had a look, who knew there were so many types of yoga mats 😂 the sticky one looks good though and lots of pretty colours to choose from 👌

Oh yes, the colour choices are fabulous, and I’d definitely recommend sticky! Mine’s a dusky orange colour. I love it. 😍😍

I have a Manduka Pro Lite yoga mat and I love it. They are expensive but will hopefully last me a lifetime and I will never have to buy another one!! I have been using this for 5 years and it still looks new. I am a qualified yoga teacher so it has had a lot of use!!! I would also recommend Liforme yoga mats. I have never used these myself but I know other teachers who love them.
