Abstract

A yoga pad includes a base layer having a first side and a second side, and each of the first and second sides has multiple grooves defined therein so as to define sections separated by the grooves. Each groove has an inner bottom, and two ramp portions extend from two sides of each of the inner bottom. Each section has a flat portion which is connected between the two ramp portions corresponding thereto. A netted layer is attached to at least one of the first side and the second side, and has multiple apertures. Each ramp portion has at least one boss which protrudes beyond each of the apertures located corresponding to the ramp portion to provide friction to the users.
