Attention all yoga practitioners. It has been discovered that the key to inner harmony, or at least to impressing friends by getting into Handstand Scorpion pose, is not, in fact, hours of practice.

Today, Manduka offers yoga mats, props, towels and bags for novitiates and devoted yoga practitioners alike. Manduka crafts its offerings out of simple, natural, and when possible, eco-friendly and renewable resources. Whether customers like Hatha or hot, they'll find the right gear at Manduka.
