Yoga Mat Straps & Slings

A sling weighs almost nothing, costs less, and comes off the mat in a second. It doesn't keep rain off and it doesn't hold keys. For a short walk to class it's all most people need; for a commute, get the bag.

Using it as a yoga strap

Long enough to loop around a foot for a supine hamstring stretch, hold behind the back for a shoulder opener, or bridge the gap between hands in a bind you can't yet close. Hemp webbing doesn't stretch, which is what you want in a strap: the length you set is the length you get.

Why hemp

Stronger than cotton webbing, doesn't sour with sweat, and softens with use without going slack.
