         9 . The yoga mat of  claim 8  further including a towel removably coupled to the carpet and arranged covering the carpet. 
     
     
         10 . The yoga mat of  claim 9 , wherein longitudinal edges of the towel extend beyond the longitudinal edges of the carpet in the lateral direction. 
     
     
         11 . The yoga mat of  claim 10 , wherein a distance between the longitudinal edges of the towel and the longitudinal edges of the carpet is between of 1 to 3 inches. 
     
     
         12 . A yoga mat, comprising:
 a carpet having
 a body portion arranged substantially centrally to the carpet, and
