Aurorae Yoga Mats Review and Giveaway - Closed


If you haven't noticed by my journals, I am really getting into Yoga and loving it!  When  Aurorae Yoga Mats offered to do a review and giveaway I was thrilled!! I had been doing my yoga on a beach towel.   I actually stalked the postman for a week waiting for my Aurorae Yoga Mat.  The minute I got the package from  Aurorae, I ripped it open and was in awe of the beautiful mat.  They sent me one in the "Hope" color and it is so vibrant that every time I see it I want to do some yoga.




What is in the package?
Not only did I get the gorgeous pink  Aurorae Yoga Mat, I also got a slip free rosin bag.  The rosin bag is ingenious!  I remember from my days spent at the dance studio how helpful rosin is and it is just as helpful during yoga, except it is a lot less messy!  I also got a Yoga Sport Sweat Towel which has also been very helpful.

Functionality
This product is above and beyond functional, the extra long mat makes sure that you never end up in front or in back of it (happened frequently with my beach towel).  The rosin bag kept me from slipping and was also mess free.  The sport sweat towel was great too!  I also use the towel during my other workouts.

Information from  Aurorae's site  
The Aurorae yoga mat is an extra long yoga mat (72”x24”x1/4”) available in great illuminating colors to define your inner self, bringing out the natural aura within you. The ¼” thick yoga mat provides enough cushion and comfort to protect your knees and joints. Aurorae yoga mats are considered one of the most durable and easy to care for yoga mats with incredible value. Aurorae yoga wants you to feel like you are amongst friends and we hope you feel comfortable recommending us to others. Your business is always appreciated and we at Aurorae look forward to servicing your yoga needs and hopefully making a few new friends along the way.
This is “your yoga” so don’t be intimidated or uncomfortable.
Relax, enjoy and Namaste.


Pros
* Beautiful colors
* Extra long
* Slip free

Cons
* I really can't think of any

Improvements?
Hmmm the product seems perfect to me, maybe monogramming?  I am reaching to find something to improve.

Cost Value
I haven't really researched the costs of Yoga mats, but $29.95 really seems like a great deal!

I was given the product for free for this review, I was not compensated in any way and the views depicted above are my own. Others my have different experiences and outcomes.
