Top 10 Yoga Mats

LOVED FOR: From the stylish print and color options to the super absorbent surface, reviewers say this mat is a total dupe for Lululemon's. Score!

USERS SAID: "I have been through various yoga mats in the past, and the IUGA Mat is by far the best mat I have ever used. I do hot yoga weekly, along with other classes, and would always find myself slipping even with the pricier mats. With the IUGA mat, I literally will be dripping sweat, and I do not move or slip out of my poses. Great mat—save your money and buy an IUGA!"

LOVED FOR: With a whopping half-inch thickness, this affordable mat is extra cushiony. Bruised knees, be gone.

BEST FOR: The lightweight design and handy carrying strap make this mat ideal for the frequent traveler.

WHAT IT DOES: Designed with extra length and thickness, this pretty mat provides super-sized cushioning during floor poses and leaves you plenty of room for a deeper stretch.

FUN FACT: This best-seller racks up the rave reviews—over 2,000 to be exact.

BEST FOR: This pick comes with a textured surface for enhanced traction during the toughest poses—no slipping and sliding here.

USERS SAID: "This mat is such good quality for the price! It's thick enough to provide comfortable support on a hardwood floor, and it seems super durable too. It lays flat right when you unroll it, and it's easy to roll up and put away. Highly recommended!"

WHY YOU NEED IT: This set is the real deal people. Besides just a yoga mat, you'll also get two yoga blocks, one mat towel, one hand towel, and a handy strap for easy carrying, all for under $50.

LOVED FOR: At a half-inch thickness, the mat that comes with this set is one of the cushiest and coziest on the market. 

USERS SAID: "I LOVE this mat! It takes a little time to break it in, so it'll seem a little slick for the first 10 sessions or so. Then it breaks in perfectly and has the right amount of sticky to keep you from sliding around during your downward dog. This mat was TOTALLY worth every penny."

WHAT IT DOES: Besides being one of the prettiest of the bunch, Lululemon's mat is also extremely versatile. It has two sides—one sticky and one grippy—that make it great for all types of yoga, and it's a little bit thicker for those that like extra support during floor poses.

FUN FACT: Tall gals, rejoice—this pick is three inches longer than your average yoga mat.

LOVED FOR: This fan-favorite mat hits the sweet spot when it comes to thickness. It's thick enough to provide substantial traction and cushion, but it's thin enough to keep you stable during tricky standing poses.

BEST FOR: With super soft memory foam that absorbs the weight of your movements, this mat is perfect for those that need extra joint protection during their practice.

HELPFUL TIP: This mat may take a few classes to break in, but the wait is well worth it.

USERS SAID: "Beautiful mat. Excellent for sticking to feet when doing yoga, which is excellent for balance. Gaiam is the king of yoga, though, so I don't know of any mats that could be of superior quality."
