Hot Yoga Towel

Options
I've recently taken up Hot Yoga and need a towel to go over the yoga mats the studio provide.

Currently I'm using a normal bath towel but this doesn't reach the length of the mat, and is slippy when trying to hold certain poses. Plus with the weather changing it is taking ages for them to dry and doing 3-4 classes a week I need an alternative.

So, I'm looking for recommendations for what hot yoga towel to buy whcih will dry quickly and not be slippy - I have read lots of reviews but for as many people who say a towel is great, there's ones who say its rubbish.

I was looking at something like these

    There's different instructors for different classes. The studio has one brand of towels for sale so I don't really feel 100% comfortable asking for recommendations for any others as it implies I don't want to buy theirs.

    Try YogaMatters.com

    They do grip towels, which do exactly what they say, and are long, quick drying etc.

    They also do lots of lovely colours :)

    I buy most of my yoga equipment from there

    Thanks everyone, I ended up ordering ones with little 'ears' which hook over the corners off the mats. May invest in one turn grip dots too depending on how quickly they dry between classes.
