Yoga Mat Kit
Monday, March 27th, 2006Gaiam Essentials Tools for Yoga Kit
Ok, so I have just started doing Yoga and I have to say that I really enjoy it a lot. However, I was not really sure what kind of gear to get and someone told me that they picked up one of these Yoga starter kits. I picked one up because I was looking for a yoga mat and figured the other items might be useful. I have to say it was money well spent.
Description:
Yoga continues to grow in popularity as a form of exercise to achieve greater balance and relaxation. Those who regularly practice yoga can expect to achieve a calmer mind, a more fit body and a greater resistance to stress. Yoga can help one to keep everything in perspective and to take life’s challenges in stride. Gaiam’s Yoga Essentials Kit contains everything you need to begin practicing yoga, and is great for beginners or experienced yoga enthusiasts. The set includes a non-slip yoga mat measuring 68 inches long x 24 inches wide x 1/8-inches thick, two foam bricks, a 6-foot long cotton strap, and a 30 minute instructional video which demonstrates using all of these tools.
