During a yoga practice you need to feel that everything is secure, that to express your self and to look within can be obtained with a firm but comfortable base.

Shiva's Mat has been created by John Scott to give you this foundation and designed to assist your practice.

One of the thickest and hard wearing cotton Yoga mats, it has been manufactured using raw natural cottons which give it its unique ability to support your Ashtanga or Power yoga practice.

As you deepen your practice and begin to warm up, the mat warms up with you creating a firmer base than a sticky mat. This is due to the sweat in your body being absorbed into the mat and acting as a grip.

The mat is also uniquely designed with an ohm and a central line. John Scott created this as a representation of the Indian God Lord shivas trident, hence the name Shiva's Mat.
This design can be used for alignment in your practice.
