John Friend Collection for Manduka

By Stefanie Payne

Manduka and meSheeky create the most popular and widely-used yoga props, accessories, and apparel on the market. And with good reason—they know what practitioners of yoga really love… and they deliver. I can assure you that all devout yogi’s have, have used, or want (even if they don’t know it) the chic and high-quality creations made by these powerhouse companies. And now, there are now some fantastic new lines to shop from!

APPAREL

Stevie Cami | Odette Capri | Elle Poncho ... Chic yoga wear from meSheeky, a new creation by Flowmotion's owner, Sarah Tomson Beyer

Our first stop: meSheeky.  Renowned yogi and creator of Flowmotion, Sarah Tomson Beyer, wanted to rock flirty and fashionable wear that would transition well from street to studio.  So she created a line, recently launching three new versatile styles for the fashion-forward yogini:

Elle Poncho

The 100% cashmere Elle Poncho is super lightweight and fabulously soft.  With two go-with-anything colors, Jet Black and Heathered Oat, any yogi can throw on this post-workout cover up on look amazing. $148. 

Odette Capri

The perfect length that flatters all body shapes, falling right below the knees.  A comforting higher rise in the back keeps everything in place when doing headstands and down-dog alike.  7 colors to choose from.

Stevie Cami

The Stevie Tank is designed with a deep v in the back to accentuate your toned “sheeky” shoulders. With a built in camisole, this cami provides full coverage that will stand up to even the most grueling exercise regimens, power yoga included.   8 colors to choose from.

 

PROPS FOR CLASS OR HOME PRACTICE

 

Manduka's John Friend Collection eKO SuperLite® Travel Mat

John Friend Collection eKO SuperLite® Travel Mat

This is, in my opinion, the best yoga mat on the market. It is sturdy and durable, making slipping off your yoga mat virtually impossible. Manduka’s latest endeavor is a partnership with Anusara Yoga founder, John Friend, in creating the “John Friend Collection By Manduka.”  Designed to provide more room for your practice, the partnership has kicked off with two extra wide mats—the John Friend PROlite and the John Friend eKO Superlite—breaking industry standards with 6 additional inches of premium space. $95.00.

 

MatWare® Mat Sleeve

MatWare® Mat Sleeve

Made of water-resistant recycled fabric, the MatWare Mat Sleeve is sleek and surprisingly spacious with a ventilated, structured mat compartment and accessory pockets.

$70.00 On Sale!

 

Lyrics eQua Hand Towel

Don’t want to drop a c-note on a yoga mat?  The Lyrics hand towel is a great alternative—absorbent and slip resistant, yogi’s can become one with mat without losing rhythm (or falling!).   Three colors to choose from. $21.00


The Classic Cork Block Assists Hard to Reach Poses

Cork Block

Made of sustainable cork, this block has a firmness not found in foam blocks, and allows you to feel secure in the support it generously provides. $19.00

 

inSight Eye Pillow

Whether you’re restoring your body in savasana or resting your eyes after a long day, the inSight Eye Pillow will soothe you into a deeper level of relaxation.  $29.00
