essential to a beginner yogi? We&#8217;re glad you asked.<\/p>\n<p>To get started with your yoga practice, you&#8217;ll need the right yoga mat, and the right yoga clothing.<\/p>\n<p>For beginners, we also recommend yoga blocks, and a yoga bolster. More on that later.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yoga_Mat\"><\/span>Yoga Mat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Your yoga mat creates traction for your hands and feet so you don\u2019t slip, especially as you get a little sweaty. It also provides cushioning on a hard floor (your knees will thank you for choosing an extra soft mat). Plus, the mat defines your personal space.<\/p>\n<p>Premium yoga mats that are made from quality materials are a worthy investment.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll often find a starter mat at various retailers (think Walmart, Target) for as little as $20. If you decide to buy a cheaper mat, you may find yourself replacing it in short order if you use it often.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our take: Don&#8217;t look for the cheapest yoga mat. Invest in a great thick mat.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here are our recommendations for the top yoga mats for beginners and experienced yogis alike:<\/p>\n    <div class=\"ybts-product-box\">\n        <h6
