Peking Best

I am new to yoga and I live in a house with hardwood floors, so I am looking for a yoga mat. I have seen the narrow ones ont he yoga web sites, but I am looking moe for something the size of which I see in Total Yoga. Can anyone reccommend a good mat material, that is padded and theat I can pick up and move when I don't want it out in the living room. Thanks, -p

You will want to get a sticky mat which will prevent you from sliding during asanas.  Regular exercise mats just don't cut it because of the texture of the material they are made of (way too slippery to practice yoga).  Usually the sticky mats come in one width, but most places can give you an extra long mat if that is what you need (they come on one big roll and they just cut them to the desired length).  They are very light and can easily be rolled up to be stored or taken to your yoga class (since our yoga center charges $1 extra if you don't have a mat!!). try these sites www.huggermugger.com www.eightlimbs.com www.yogaprops.com
