Yoga Grip Gel

No more slipping. Just sticking with it.
Sweaty palms? Slippery mats? Enter: Grip Gel. This fast-drying formula helps keep your hands and feet where they belong — on your mat — so you can stay grounded, even in your sweatiest poses. Compact enough to toss in your bag, it’s an essential for anyone who’s ever lost their grip mid-flow.

“This stuff is amazing. I can't believe how good my hands & feet grip with just a small amount!” – Nicole W.

Muscle recovery, made gentler.
Not all rollers are created equal. The Belong Roller was designed with yoga practitioners in mind — firm enough to release tension but soft enough to feel restorative, not punishing. Whether you use it post-practice or as a warm-up tool, it helps reset your body so you can return to your mat with more mobility and less soreness.

“All-round soft yet firm roller. Great for both myofascial release and reformer style pilates exercises." - Joyce W.

yogitoes® Hand Towel

A small towel with a big impact.
Think of this as your mat’s trusty sidekick. The yogitoes Hand Towel is ideal for hot yoga or anytime you need a little extra sweat control. It’s absorbent, quick-drying, and packs down small — which means you can keep it close without it getting in the way.

“Not slippery (pleasant for hands and if you put it on a mat), very soft, dries quickly, absorbs moisture well if you do hot yoga.” – Roxanne T.

"Soft and strong - the perfect combo for wiping up sweat from a good workout / yoga session." - Maegen E.

Mini size, major support.
Don’t let the name fool you. These compact blocks offer serious support in a petite package. Perfect for travel, tight spaces, or when you just need a little extra lift during seated or supine poses. They’re also great for yogis with smaller frames or anyone who prefers a lower profile.

“So practical. Good dimensions, easy to carry.” – Vesna J.

yogitoes® Headband

Stay focused. Stay put.
When you're trying to stay in your flow, the last thing you want is hair in your face or sweat dripping into your eyes. The yogitoes Headband keeps you cool, dry, and distraction-free — and with a soft, stretchy fit, it stays exactly where you want it from the first sun salutation to the final savasana.

“These are my favorite headbands for working out! They are soft, lightweight and stretchy, but not too much so that they slide off my head. They keep sweat at bay and wash well.” – Carrie H.
