What You Stand to Gain From Our Starter Kit for Yoga
It doesn't matter if it is your first time doing yoga or you are an experienced yogi, everyone in the class need a yoga mat and eventually a block as you advance. We make it easy for you to carry everything without harming the environment. See what the kit contains:
• Yoga mat. What do you need from a yoga mat? In needs to be anti-slip, long enough for your body and portable. In our yoga mat, you get that and so much more. Our non-slip option and the right length with the main benefit - you can fold the mat to fit into the backpack.
• Backpack. The backpack will conform to your body shape and lighten the load on your back. The design offers a bib middle bag for your yoga kit, as well as a laptop sleeve for when you have a meeting right after class.
• The block. As you get into the yoga lifestyle, you will find that the poses become more challenging and that you might need a bit of extra help sometimes. Our cork block will help you to lift your torso and reduce the distance between your hand and the floor.
Once you see how much easier our yoga kit makes your life and jumping between activities, you will want your yoga pal to have the same - perfect for the beginner or advanced yogis.
Fun Facts About Equipment for Yoga
Yoga was initially only practised as a meditative and spiritual ritual in ancient India, with the benefits of yoga as a form of exercise, only taking off in the 20th century in the Western world and with it came the equipment we use today.
• Why the mat? Considering the poses that yoga entails, you need a surface that you can securely and confidently place your feet and hands on, without the possibility of slipping and hurting yourself.
• Straps. As you might have seen, our kit includes one strap with a D-ring. The straps might be the lesser-known equipment. The 6, 8 and 10-foot straps are used in yoga to stretch your body and to give you a wider range of motion than you would have without one.
• Blocks. The yoga blocks usually come in foam, bamboo, or cork, and they provide support during certain poses. Also increasing your range of motion, it further serves as support for the back, hips and knees and makes it easier for the body to go into a particular pose.
There are different styles of yoga, each with its own set of poses, purpose, and outcomes. It ultimately doesn't matter which style of yoga you do; the mind, body and soul benefits will be evident.

I am loving my yoga bag - the ability to put everything I need for a class into one bag makes it so much easier - I use to always attempt to put the mat under my arm and then juggle the rest into the class.
Thank you Yogasuthra!
