Even in its choice of attire, Dahn Yoga puts the Earth first

For most people who are at least somewhat aware of today's yoga trends, the mental picture that the phrase "yoga outfit" conjures up can be predicted with relative regularity. The restrictive synthetic fabrics that form the basis of much of this attire are common, as are the discomfort caused by this apparel.

The irritation caused by tight yoga attire is a problem that Dahn Yoga clothing can ameliorate. Unlike typical yoga outfits, the style worn by practitioners of this holistic mind-body system is exemplified by a loose-fitted, two-piece outfit made with natural fibers.

The trend toward natural materials – or alternatively, toward synthetic materials that happen to be biodegradable – shows that many yoga enthusiasts want to care for the Earth as much as they care for themselves.

An example is a line of recyclable yoga bags created by the Denver-based company, Recycle Fashionably. These bags are not all-natural but instead are created using all recycled materials – cotton, nylon and cords that would otherwise occupy a landfill.

These products, and the growing number of biodegradable yoga shirts and pants, are a step in the right direction, but what is simplest is often best. Dahn Yoga uses only light, breathable cotton to make its long-sleeved yoga clothing.
