“My favorite yoga mat is the Lululemon reversible 3mm. It's cushy enough to provide real support, but also incredibly lightweight to take with you anywhere! I love the mat’s versatile material, which is crucial since I practice in both the studio and outdoors at Sweat Sessions. As a bonus, I love the color options because each side has its own hue, which allows for a little personality.”

“It’s hard to pick a favorite yoga mat as there are several brands that I absolutely love, but Jade Yoga’s Fusion mat holds a special place in my heart. It’s thick enough to cushion my joints with an unparalleled grip and width. For a fat-bodied practitioner who likes a wide canvas for play, it’s the perfect choice."

Anthropologie, $99

SHOP IT

Wellness by Anthropologie has a great selection of fitness items, including my current favorite, the Whirlwind Yoga Mat by Sugarmat. Designed in Montreal, the mats are both high-quality and fashionable thanks to the beautiful and unique designs. They are great for hot yoga classes since the suede top is absorbent and ultra-grippy even when it gets wet. It also feels really soft on your skin and it's thick, which gives you that extra bit of support.”

"There's a lot to love about Jade Yoga's Harmony Mat: It has great grip, it's made of eco-friendly natural rubber, and it's favored by my NYC yoga studio of choice, Sky Ting. I have the midnight blue one, and my trick for keeping it from collecting lint between wipe-downs is folding it in half before rolling it like this."

"I keep this exercise mat in my home gym mostly to take naps on, and occasionally I do actually use if for exercise. It's super soft and cushioned, hence all the napping. Plus, every time I roll it out, I get a compliment!"

Jen Gotch, Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Ban.do

“My favorite yoga mat is by Jade Yoga. They're made from natural and recycled materials, so they're super eco-friendly. They also don’t allow you to slip once you start working up a sweat, which I love.”

"I’ve tried pretty much every yoga mat you could possibly imagine, but this one is definitely my go-to. It's a little on the bulkier side, but it gives you a lot more grip support when you’re sweating. I especially love it for hot yoga—I don't have to carry an extra towel with me since the grey portion is essentially a built-in one. Pro tip: Leave it open so it dries before you use it again."

“I love this mat because of the squishiness of the foam—especially when I'm barefoot! It creates a steady flat surface when I'm practicing on the grass.”
