Bikram/Hot yoga Kit
Pack description
Bikram Yoga or Hot Yoga are very special Yoga styles with one thing in common: the heat. Both are practiced in a very hot environment, which makes them extremely intense.
There is a lot of sweating and normal Yoga mats often become slippery. Using a towel on top of the mat is a small relief until you realize that the towel (which in the meant time is wet and nasty) does not keep in place and you spend more time trying to keep it straight than concentrating on your actual Yoga practice.
Been there done that.
That's why we thought of a Yoga mat Kit which contains exactly what you need for a successful and stress-free Hot Yoga or Bikram Yoga lesson. Our basic Yoga mat Free Light 3mm is stable, easy to clean and the best foundation for any Yoga lesson. Instead of a conventional towel add the Yoga towel Grippy Boo from bamboo microfiber. Natural rubber on the bottom make sure it does not move a bit from where you put it and the microfiber surface absorbs your sweat and provides the grip you need for your asanas. You can easily hand-wash it or wash it in the washing machine (cold and no spin cycle).
You will thank us later.
Pack content
Its good degree of shock absorption, combined with a thickness of only 3 mm, offers you comfort and stability when performing asanas. Ideal for yoga, it can be used on both sides: it will be like having two mats in one!
Choose the colourful pattern that best suits your day and start practising straight away.
Technical specifications
Ideal for those who are just beginning their practice.
With its perfect combination of thickness and grip, Free LIGHT is the ideal eco-friendly, non-slip yoga mat for approaching any style of yoga.
Like all mats in the FREE line, LIGHT is made of 100% premium TPE, an environmentally friendly synthetic rubber which uses no toxic chemical additives during its production process, while requiring less energy than other similar materials for its manufacturing and is fully recyclable. The closed-cell structure of TPE makes FREE LIGHT waterproof and very easy to clean. Free LIGHT's TPE is hypoallergenic, as there is no latex in its composition, and of course, it contains no PVC.
It's very light (it weighs only 800 grams!), and of small size which will allow you to carry it with you at all times so you never have to give up your daily rebalancing moments.
Advice on the correct use
Before you start practising, we suggest you use some precautions to best preserve your mat:
-
always wash your hands and feet well to remove residues of oils and creams that may stain the mat
-
do not expose the mat to direct sunlight or heat sources, as this will deteriorate the environmentally friendly TPE and considerably shorten its lifespan.
-
use Free Light without shoes or non-slip socks to avoid damaging the surface
Do your hands and feet sweat a lot?
We recommend combining this mat with the GRIPPY BOO Towel.
Care and Maintenance
When you are not using the Free Light, we recommend keeping it rolled up in a dry, sheltered place. Ideally, it should be stored clean and dry in a natural fabric bag.
All you need to clean it is a wet, wrung-out cloth (do not use a dry cloth, as it may be too abrasive). Our advice is to always clean it after practice or at least once a week.
For deeper cleaning, it can be washed by hand in cold water with a mild detergent or with our mat cleaners.
We recommend drying the Free Light flat, absolutely not in a dryer, away from heat sources and not in direct sunlight.
Roll up your mat, always starting from the side opposite the ReYoga logo (the label must remain out when closed).

The Grippy Boo foldable yoga towel in eco microfibre is designed for those who practice very intense styles and who tend to have very sweaty hands or feet.
On the upper part, it has a comfortable bamboo eco microfibre that becomes extremely tight-fitting with little moisture.
At the bottom, it is entirely covered with an ecological non-slip that makes it firmly grounded.
Technical specifications
Towel Grippy Boo is the towel that becomes a yoga mat!
Grippy Boo is designed to meet the needs of those who practise yoga styles that involve profuse sweating because they are very dynamic (as in Ashtanga Yoga, Vinyasa Flow Yoga or Power Yoga) or take place at very high room temperatures (as in Bikram yoga) and for those who simply tend to have very sweaty hands and feet!
The upper part of the Grippy Boo consists of a comfortable, super-absorbent bamboo microfibre sponge with recognised antibacterial properties that help reduce the build-up of odour-causing microorganisms. Little moisture is needed to create good friction. This will help you concentrate on the asanas without distractions from slipping!
The bamboo microfibre in this mat is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified to ensure you the best choice in terms of sustainability for this textile fibre. The cultivation of bamboo is itself environmentally friendly, the plant grows fast, occupies little land area, requires little water and requires no chemicals. Its fibre is extracted using environmentally friendly products and by reducing consumption.
The entire bottom surface of the Grippy Boo is non-slip and keeps it stable when placed on top of another mat. The same grip exists when you place it directly against the floor.
Advice on the correct use
The Towel Grippy Boo is at its best when wet!
We recommend moistening it slightly by spraying it with water before you start practising: this will simulate sweating and your extremities will adhere perfectly right away.
Alternatively, you can start practising on the mat and roll out the Grippy Boo once your hands are sweaty enough to grip the fabric! In fact, you can use this towel on its own or in combination with a classic yoga mat, such as our Free Light.
Its versatility, lightness, and the fact that it is completely foldable and dries very quickly make the Towel Grippy Boo a valuable travel companion.
Care and Maintenance
The Grippy Boo is easy to use and care for. It is very durable and can be washed in the washing machine (at 30° maximum) but absolutely should not be put in the dryer. Because it dries so quickly, it will be ready for use again in a very short time.
To ensure that your Grippy Boo lasts as long as possible, we recommend that you fold it only as long as necessary (when moving or travelling) and roll it up in a dry, sheltered place when storing it normally. If possible, also store it inside a bag to protect it from dust.
Avoid keeping it near heat sources or exposed to direct sunlight for a long time: the underside may lose its characteristic grip (the microfibre will not be damaged in any case).
