Favorite Things Giveaway: Manduka
So excited for today’s favorite things giveaway, because it’s something I’ve been using for years, from a brand that I adore: Manduka!
I purchased my first Manduka yoga mat about 7 years ago. It was the most I’d ever spent on a mat, and my friends assured me that it would be worth it.
They don’t lie. 😉
Years and years later, my Manduka mat is still my favorite, and it feels even better than the day I bought it. It’s extremely supportive and durable, especially during sweaty classes and arm balances.
I’m also a huge fan of their yogitoes mat towels. They’re a staple for hot yoga, wash well, and stand the test of time. The newest ones have small plastic beads on the bottoms so the towel stays exactly where you place it.
When I reached out to my friends at Manduka to see if they’d kindly hook you up with some goodies this holiday season, they surprised me with a new Eko Light mat and yogitoes towel.
They’re also offering the same prize for a very lucky winner. This is perfect if you have plans to expand your yoga practice in the new year, especially if your old mat needs an upgrade.
Enter below. 🙂

Ooooooh! That looks like a great mat! I could use an upgrade for sure!
I practiced yoga regularly for years, but once I hit 25 weeks of pregnancy most poses stopped feeling good. I’m totally bummed (though I know it’s temporary), and I’m sticking to a LOT of cat/cows for now.
Pigeon!! Or downward dog always feels good
I like the leg balances like dancing shiva and airplane (or if you like the Red Hot Chili Peppers “aeroplane”)
would love to win this for my Mom!
I love sun salutations to get my heart pumping and feeling strong. I love forward fold and downward dog to stretch out my sore legs.
I LOVE Manduka!! My towel has gone backpacking all around the world with me. My favorite pose is pigeon!
My favorite!!
Pigeon pose
My favourite yoga pose is pigeon! Hurts. So. Good! I’ve been eyeing that yogitoes towel for a long time! I have a lulu one but I swear I spend most of the class trying to straighten it out and stop it from bunching.
Warrior pose!
Camel!
Crow pose! But only because I am proud of the fact I can finally hold it for a minute.
Ahhh downward dog feels so good!
Child’s pose! I love the stretch it gives and it always centers me before/during/after my practice.
Pigeon!
Tree pose always makes me feel so balanced!
One of my favorites is crescent lunge into airplane lunge. I always feel like I’m a badass when I do that transition , for some reason, ha.
Crow! I love the focus, strength, and balance it requires of me- not to mention it makes me feel a little badass 😉
I love any hip openers, especially pigeon. Thanks!
My favorite yoga pose is triangle! The stretch feels so good!
Favorite pose is cow face!!! Feels sooo good on my IT bands!
Plank!
The pigeon! Any hip opener pose, but this is my fave.
To be honest, I dont have a favorite yoga pose because I’ve only taken a few classes here and there. However, my goal for the upcoming year is to start regularly practicing yoga and I think a nice mat would be a very good start!
Awesome! My favourite pose is warrior 2. It makes me feel strong and grounded! 🙂
I really love a good tree pose to get grounded. Also cow face 🙂
Warrior and I’ve been getting into arm balances more lately!
What is the best way to clean a newish Manduka Pro mat that slips?
My favorite pose is downward dog. I love a good stretch and the upper body challenge!
Pigeon pose!
Warrior!
Oh it’s so hard to pick… I love dancer’s pose & tree pose, but garland feels so good!
Plank and downward dog!
Child’s pose 🙂 ALWAYS child’s pose
I’m a runner and I love pigeon pose! Nothing feels as good as pigeon pose…except for corpse pose. Especially in a class with a teacher who walks around and does that shoulder-pressy-downy-thing during corpse pose. I’m 35 weeks pregnant and can’t WAIT to start hot yoga again!
Camel & child’s pose 🙂
Crow! When I’m strong enough to do it 🙂
i LOVE child’s pose! Nice and relaxing!! I also like Warrior 3 on the opposite end of easy and relaxing!!
That mat is beautiful!
Isn’t everybody’s favorite yoga pose pigeon? Hurts so good!
Would love to win this for my yogi boyfriend!!
One day I’ll get the hang of headstand/handstand…..away from the wall 😉
As a former dancer, I’d be lying if I didn’t say that dancer would be my all time favorite balancing pose. It just feels natural in my body 😉
Downdog
Does savasana count? In all seriousness, I often have trouble meditating, but after a good yoga session, I really love how quiet my mind gets in savasana.
I would really like to win this! I recently joined a local Hot Yoga studio and have been wanting a yoga towel (and new mat – mine is a “cheapy”). Awesome giveaway!
And…my favorite yoga pose is Inverted Half moon.
I just love how energized I am after a good hot yoga session!
Tree or down dog
Child’s pose is a favorite, it makes me feel so safe and grounded. But I also love lotus, and any hip openers, really!
I love this giveaway! I messed up my knee last February while training for a triathlon and will be having my second knee surgery on it at the end of January. Needless to say, at this point any yoga pose is my favorite! Come April/May, I’m looking forward to everything and can’t wait for my first sun salutation!
