Are Gaiam yoga mats worth it?

We ranked the Gaiam as our favorite for beginner yogis so it’s a good starter yoga mat. It strikes the perfect balance between style, quality, and price for anyone getting started in yoga. The jute material on the Gaiam is interwoven within the foam and provides a coarse surface that’s very helpful for grip.
