If you're taking a yoga class — especially one where they're cranking up the temperature — you're bound to sweat it out during your practice. And even though we can't always see the dirt, mats get grimy with use. You'll need to give your gear a quick wipe after each class to ward off bacteria by using a yoga mat cleaner. Sure, you can make your own at home, but there are plenty of quality natural cleaners to choose from that don't spray harsh chemicals all over your mat.

All of the yoga mat cleaners we recommend below are made with natural and organic ingredients, so you won't have to worry about any harsh chemicals interfering with your post-yoga glow.
