Common Questions About Pilates & Yoga Mats

Since many movements in yoga and pilates are ground-based, it's important to have a comfortable yoga mat to make it easier to perform the exercises. Featuring a range of different sizes and thicknesses, shop our range of yoga mats at rebel now for your home pilates or yoga routine.

How to Clean, Wash & Disinfect a Yoga Mat?

Cleaning and keeping your yoga mat fresh after a sweaty session is crucial to keeping your mat hygienic for longer.

Mix equal parts water and white vinegar into a spray bottle.
Add a few drops of an essential oil, like eucalyptus.
Spray mixture on both sides of the mat, wiping down with some paper towel.
For stubborn marks, try adding a pinch of bicarbonate soda to your solution.

To deep clean your yoga mat, it's best to use dishwashing liquid, warm water and a sponge. Give your mat a light scrubbing, letting the mixture sit for five minutes and then let it dry in the shade. Make sure not to dry your mat in the sun, as you don't want it to dry out and become crumbly

What Are the Best Materials for Yoga Mats?

There are several options of yoga mat material available. Most standard yoga mats are made with:

PVC or vinyl
Natural recycled rubber
Natural or organic cotton

Basically, if you like the tried and true feel of a sticky yoga mat, choose PVC or vinyl. If you enjoy a flatter mat, look for one that's cotton or rubber-based.

Are Yoga and Pilates Mats the Same?

No, Pilates and yoga mats are different. One big distinction is that Pilates mats are usually thicker (by around a few centimetres). As Pilates involves a lot more floor work than yoga, it requires a slightly thicker mat to protect your body.

What Yoga Mat Thickness is Best; Is Thicker Better?

Thickness is an important aspect to consider. If your mat is too thin, it won't be as protective, especially when completing more complicated moves, and won't be as comfortable on your knees or joints. However, if your mat is too thick, you won't feel as connected to the ground, becoming wobbly and unfocused during different movements.

It's all about what works for you and how you enjoy doing yoga. If you enjoy the comfort of a thick mat, and you don't mind bringing a thicker mat with you to the studio, opt for one that's around 5-6 mm thick, while a mat around 3-4mm thick is better if you enjoy feeling the floor and don't require as much cushion.

Can You Do Yoga Without a Yoga Mat?

Yes, you can absolutely do yoga without a mat. However, it's best, especially for beginners, to complete yoga with a yoga mat, as it will allow your body to get used to the movements with the added support. However, completing yoga without a mat can be a very liberating experience, especially when done outside to better connect with your surroundings.

If you're doing Pilates, having a Pilates-specific mat that can protect your joints and support your body as you move is super important. A mat around 5-6mm thick is the best option. However, reformer Pilates involves the reformer machine, so you won't need a mat to complete the workout.

How to Stop the Mat from Slipping?

There are a few ways to stop your mat from slipping:

Invest in a high-quality mat: Having a mat made from high-quality materials will mean that it's less likely to slip, will be a long-lasting and better investment all around.

Non-slip foot socks and gloves: Wearing yoga socks and gloves with grips helps reduce slipping during sessions. Whether the climate is warmer, you're doing hot yoga or you naturally sweat a lot through your hands and feet, grippy socks and gloves, like the GAIAM Grippy Socks, will help prevent any slipping.

Yoga towel: Another option is a yoga towel. Especially if you do yoga in a gym or public studio, investing in a yoga towel, like the GAIAM Grippy Towel, will give you a barrier between you and the mat, stopping any slipping from taking place. It will also be a lot more hygienic, especially if the mats are well used.

Must Have Yoga Accessories? What Do I Need?

If you're a beginner, you don't need much to do yoga – just your body and potentially a mat. However, if you're ready to challenge yourself and take on some different moves, there are a range of yoga accessories designed to take your meditation up a notch.

Back wheel: A back wheel is a great way to open up the spine before starting yoga. It helps to warm up your joints and your back before you go straight into a cobra pose.

Yoga Block: Helps to boost stability, necessary for balance during more difficult moves.

Flow bands and straps: Straps and flow bands can be added to your yoga routine to assist and strengthen your range of motion, especially if flexibility is something you want to work on during your sessions.
