Today, I want to cover the topic of travel Yoga mats. First off, I am a very serious Yoga practicioner – however my job as a flight attendant often colides with my Yoga studies. For that reason, I usually always carry two things on flights with me: my advanced yoga book and my Manduka PROlite travel Yoga mat. Let’s take a look at this Manduka mat.

Manduka 71-Inch PROlite Travel Yoga and Pilates Mat
The thing I like about this mat is also the quality that makes it easy to travel with – the weight. It is probably the most lightweight yoga mat that I have ever used. A lot of yoga mats tend to absorb sweat, which really increases the weight of the mat. This mat doesn’t absorb anything, yet still is a very sticky mat when it comes to gripping the floor and your feet. Another great thing about this mat is it is really easy to roll up and make it small. While it has a good amount of padding, its shape makes it really easy to roll up and store in a suitcase or whatever it is you like to travel with. If you want to buy this mat, I highly recommend you buy it through Amazon here. You won’t find it cheaper anywhere else!

Doesn’t have to be used for travel either

I hear a lot of complaints from people saying that mats tend to be really heavy and annoying to lug around. The Manduka Prolite is extremely easy to transport because of its unique shape when rolled up and its weight. Even though it is a travel mat, you could easily use this one as your everyday mat and not have to worry about it wearing out. It is extremely durable and is designed to last your whole lifetime.
