Yoga Equipment & Accessories

To start, a non-slip, medium-thickness (4-5 mm) yoga mat and at least one yoga block are enough. This gear helps you learn the basic poses with proper alignment.

Wipe your mat and blocks after every practice with a special plant-based cleaning spray and a damp cloth, keeping them out of direct sunlight. Chemical detergents can damage the equipment's surface.

No, contrary to popular belief, props are actively used by professional yogis to deepen poses and balance more challenging alignments.

A yoga mat is the main surface you practice on and is designed to support your whole body. A yoga pad is a smaller, usually thicker support placed on top of the mat. Pads provide extra cushioning, especially to protect sensitive joints like the knees, elbows or wrists, reducing pressure for a pain-free practice.

In the professional yoga world, Manduka and Liforme are the most popular brands for performance and durability. Manduka stands out especially for its PRO series with a lifetime guarantee and its hygienic closed-cell construction, while Liforme is known for its unique alignment system (AlignForMe) and high-grip surface technology. Stilefit is a curated platform that brings together the latest collections from these global leaders.

Cork yoga blocks are denser and heavier than foam blocks. This gives you more stability and confidence, especially in balance poses. And since cork is a completely natural, sustainable and antimicrobial material, it's both an eco-friendly and a hygienic yoga accessory.
