Yoga guides and mat care
Halloween and yoga: autumn practice and yoga mat offers
A little Halloween history, ideas for autumn yoga and the oléyoga Eco Daily offer. Choose a mat for your practice and explore the current promotion.
Open cell or closed cell yoga mat: what is the difference?
One absorbs sweat and grips better as you go; the other keeps moisture out and is easier to keep clean. The trade nobody explains, and which one suits your practice.
PU or natural rubber yoga mat: compare the contact surface
Choosing between a PU-coated mat and a natural rubber surface? Compare the layers, care and practice conditions before buying.
Sweat and grip in a daily practice
Grip does not fall off a cliff when you sweat, it degrades in stages. Where each surface gives up, and why a mat that grips better wet is a real category.
ALO Yoga mats vs oléyoga: Warrior and Eco Daily
Compare ALO Warrior, Lightweight Warrior and oléyoga Eco Daily: price, weight, thickness, materials and what matters for your practice.
Yoga mats made in Europe or made in Asia: does it matter?
Almost every mat sold in Europe is made in Asia. What that changes in shipping, in what a brand can actually tell you, and where it honestly makes no difference at all.
Why you slip in a fast flow
Slipping in a quick sequence is a moisture problem and a timing problem, in that order. What the surface can fix, and what it cannot.
How much does a good yoga mat cost and what justifies the price?
Understand yoga mat prices and decide which differences are worth paying for.
How to tell if a yoga mat deal is worth it
Compare the final price and offer conditions before choosing a yoga mat on sale.
Natural rubber in a hot room: what actually happens
Heat and heavy sweat change how rubber behaves. Why we do not recommend our mat for hot yoga, what surfaces work instead, and what heat does to a mat long term.
How to store your yoga mat without ruining it
Rolled loosely, dry, out of the sun, not in the car. Most of the damage a mat takes happens in the twenty-three hours a day nobody is standing on it.
Is a natural rubber yoga mat vegan?
Yes, and so is PVC, which is why the label alone tells you almost nothing. Where animal products actually hide in a yoga mat, and what to check instead.
