PROS

The supporters of the beginners’ yoga kit, although outnumbered still rally on:

• Its softness. Provides ample cushioning and support. Well padded.
• Carrying harness and strap which facilitates rolling it up and hanging it away when exercise regime complete.
• Affordability
• Thickness which helps accommodate back, hip and pelvic bones

CONS

The opponents of the Beginners’ Yoga Kit vehemently refute any credibility to this promotion and outline and outnumber the positive feedback and reviews for this product.

• Mats are inferior and of very poor quality as knees and elbows easily flatten the mat. The super softness impairs proper balance and supports excessive movement
• Danger hazard as the yoga mat is extremely slippery during practice. Not appropriate for yoga exercise. Insufficient grip. Increase risk of injury

• The thickness is not meant to serve as pillows and support as the proponents advocate, but it must be acknowledged that the thickness for yoga purposes actually impairs the ability to balance. It increases instability
• Not a yoga mat; thickness and softness does not facilitate the balance needed in various yogasanas (yoga poses) makes it very difficult to balance and move through poses.
• Inferior material as it proves easy to rip and crack. Very stretchy and easy to imprint. Scrunches and flattens easily. Slides and wrinkles excessively, thus detracting and compromising on the actual yoga experience. Breaks down and develops dents and irregular surface.
• Comparable to the $5 version at a bargain store, albeit slightly thicker

Summary

In conclusion the yoga mat emerges as a nice mat, soft and cushiony, however it proves NO GOOD for a yoga experience. Some opponents claimed that on doing P90x Core Synergistics the mat developed immediate indents and got thinner in some areas from the weight of feet and from the stretching of the material. They claim that furthermore, the mat may be good for sit ups and shivasana and picnics in the park but inoperative for yoga. They present various scenarios where the use of this mat would prove absolutely impractical. They ask the rhetorical question….’’Who wants to try and do a downward dog on a mat that starts to stretch between your hands and feet? The only think this is good for is padding, if you are doing sphynx or something and need padding under knees or elbows. This is not suitable as a yoga mat. It may work well for floor exercises but not for yoga. It increases the risk of injury and the hazard in yoga practices. ‘’
