Would this towel work on carpet in place of a yoga mat?

It's very thin, so I think you'd be better off with a mat, as well. Plus, without the cushion of a mat underneath, you might feel the grippy dots on the underside of the towel.

I don't think so.. The carpet still too hard, yet, I would recommend to use a yoga mat..

Yes. It will work. I will say there are better towels out there. Look at prana. This one is very slippery even when wet.

I use it with my microfiber mat. I would contact the seller directly about the question.

No, the mat is a thick, heavy, rubber substance. It will not move or stretch.

It most certainly will. I am using it to hold up a fancy tapestry the weaving of which makes it feel like a beach towel. So, it will hold up a fabric like that on the wall in addition to my rugs which are on carpet. So, both fabric on fabric and fabric on wall seem to work just fine.

I use this puzzle mat in combination with a no skid under-carpet mat. If you just use the puzzle mat on its own it will still slip around. The mat is mostly useful for its padding. It's pretty thick.

Yes we recommend bringing a towel in addition to this mat for hot yoga. Please give the mat a few uses to break it in and loosen the jute fibers to provide maximum traction.Thanks for your interest in our Barracuda Yoga mat!Tasha

I would think so....I fit two 1/4" yoga mats rolled together into it. I guess it depends on the bulkiness of the towel...I was hoping I could fit my two yoga blocks into it...but they def don't fit. Still I'm happy with the bag. Hope this helps.

I do yoga regularly and I would NOT use this as a yoga mat but it could be used if you are careful. This mat does not have that "sticky" quality most yoga mats have to hold certain positions. I use a thicker than normal yoga mat I obtained at a local chain sports store. I recall it being called an exercise/Pilates mat. It resembles the LRF - SUPER THICK 68" x 24" Yoga Mat Pad Non-Slip Durable (EVA - 6mm) on Amazon.

I honestly cannot say for sure since I use my mat in my office setting and it is on top of carpet. I have used other mats on my kitchen floor; however, where the floor was washed and it did not seem to affect the mat in any way. I really don't think it will affect this mat either since it is a sturdy rubber back. Hope this helps.

It's not a yoga towel. You could use it as a regular towel though. I would bring the hand towel to yoga just for sweat.

My best guess would be yes! It is a nice thickness and after you unroll it and give it a few minutes to warm up and flatten out it stays down like a dream. If you have concerns with sliding I would dampen the surface under the mat first to help give it some suction.

The mat is thin and pretty pliable not stiff so it should work. It does the job of cooling down.

I would think so. I was really surprised at how well it actually worked. I have several mats, always searching for *the one*, and have used it with a couple of them. It worked equally well on each mat I tried. You just dust your hands and kind of pat them together. I'm not sure how it would work on a toweled mat, like the kind that Aurorae offers (my husband has one, but he hasn't used my rosin, as the Aurorae mat is great for non-slip). I think it's worth trying it! It doesn't cost much, and it will go a very long way.

It's pretty thin, but the top is crinkled, so less slippery than carpet. Your weight would push whatever touches the floor down into the mat--so it might actually be worth a try.

Absolutely- its extra-large-mat sized! (Same size as the Aurorae mat.) I have used mine on occasion solo. It folds up slightly smaller than a bath towel. It is microfiber so it is thin, it doesnt provide much cushion, but I have used it and it worked well for a clean exersize surface and for traction/sweat!

The mat is pretty sturdy. I would assume it will work on pretty much any surface. I'm using it on a thick pile carpet.
