Which Yoga Positions Are Best For Non-Slip Yoga Mats?


When buying a non-slip yoga mat you are also buying the reassurance that you’ll be able to master yoga poses that require balance.


Balancing poses often rely on a non-slip yoga mat to keep you firm on the ground. Here are our top 3 balancing yoga poses for you to try!


#1 Tree Pose

  • Press your right foot into the ground.
  • Rise onto the tiptoes of your left foot. Transfer your weight from both feet to just one foot.
  • Bring your left knee up and hold it with both hands.
  • With your left hand, pull your knee outwards. Your foot should rest either above or below the knee joint.
  • Rest your foot on the inside of your thigh. Push your thigh against the heel. It’ll feel like two forces pushing against each other, giving your hips a great stretch.
  • Keep your hips pointing forward. Only your knee should point to the side.
  • Position your hands into the prayer pose and relax your shoulders. 

#2 Downward Facing Dog

  • Start on all fours on the floor.
  • Push gently onto your toes as you lift your hips and straighten your knees. If this is challenging, keep a slight bend at your knees.
  • Keep your hips back, stretching out your back. If you want to increase the stretch, you can move your hands forwards.
  • Push down onto your palms and keep your leg muscles engaged while holding this pose.
  • Take a few deep breaths in this position before coming back down to all fours to release the pose.

#3 Warrior 2

  • Stretch arms out to the side, gently widen your stance.
  • Turn hip bones towards the side of your mat.
  • Your front knee needs to be over your front ankle whilst your back leg remains straight. Keep reaching outwards with both fingertips.
  • Your shoulders should align over your hips.

There you have it, 3 poses to help improve your balance and core strength, made possible with non-slip yoga mats to keep you stable. Give them a go, once you’ve used a non-slip yoga mat you’ll never want to go back!
