Yoga is Good for your health & your soul.

Traditionally, yoga mats were used for (you guessed it), yoga. Using a mat is pretty much essential for yoga. Not only does it protect your joints from impact against a hard floor, but the surface is grippy enough to keep you locked in place when you're in an awkward position.
