Lifeboard portable yoga floor?
I found one small thread about this product but I figured I'd ask. http://www.getlifeboard.com
Our new carpet is just sooo fluffy, lol. I've solved the wobbly elliptical dilemma but I just tried yoga for the first time since having it installed....yikes. It was awful. That led me to some google-fu and finding the Lifeboard. Anyone have any thoughts to share? |

This looks very interesting and useful. I have also recently had to start practicing in a carpeted room and noticed my wrists aching and balancing poses being harder. This is what I had been thinking of doing, especially with all the extra time on my hands.

I keep it propped against the wall in my fitness room behind the “cat tree”. I have a room size rug in the fitness room and used to roll it out of the way before rolling out my mat. Lifeboard takes less time and is less stressful than my OCD about getting the rug back in place.

Funny you should post this now. I have been practicing yoga at home more (I usually only practice at home on the weekends) and have noticed how frustrating it is to do it on my plush carpet. It's not only hard(er) to balance but my mat moves all over the place.
I can't afford the wonderful contraption discussed, but have been thinking of using puzzle mats. Anyone had success with using those for yoga on a plush carpet with the mat on top? |

I don’t have any experience with puzzle mats so I can’t say if it would provide enough firmness to simulate a yoga mat on a hard wood floor.

I would think the puzzle mats would not connect firmly/solidly enough to resist separating during a workout. I've never tried it -- I did consider it as an option when I was researching, though. I also looked at portable dance floors/squares. Some of those were potentials, but ultimately I just went the "easiest" route.
