Which side of the yoga mat should be up?

Yoga mats often have a bumpier side on which to practice. If both sides of your mat are bumpy, look for the one with more pronounced bumps, as this is likely the side that should be face up. The exception to this rule are mats that feature a microfiber, towel-like side and a classic nubby, rubbery side.
