AOL/Huffington Post: A Busy Mom Builds Yoga Empire
Libby Andrews is what some might call a fitness fanatic. From the time she was in her first year of college, she was running five miles every day to keep the "freshman fifteen" from catching up with her. It wasn’t long before she was on the school crew team and adding swimming and biking to her workout regimen. So it was no surprise that after having three kids within thirty months Libby was doing her best to get back on track ....“I just took it one step at a time,” Libby said softy, “and each of those steps led me to the next. So many people don’t pursue things because they feel like they have to have all the answers before they do it. But that’s the definition of a journey -- you figure it out as you go.”

The Most Sensational New Minimalist Footwear
From America's Podiatrist:
One of the most notable problems that people who practice yoga have with regards to their feet is that in some positions their bare feet can slip and cause a fall. There are few things worse in yoga than doing a Garudasana Eagle Pose and end up crash landing on your beak because your foot slipped out from under you! Socks and slippers do not allow the toes to be free enough to grip and balance properly, plus they can overheat the foot causing it to sweat and slip even further...(click to read more)

Get Healthy, Healthy Products --Wrists That Stick!
If your downward facing dog is interrupted by sweaty palms, slipping and un-zen-like internal curses, you’re not alone—you’re in luck. Slide on a pair of slip-proof Stick-e Yoga Wrist Savers, which help keep you firmly planted on your mat during weight-bearing poses. The Wrist Savers are nearly weightless, so they won’t disrupt your practice, and they also alleviate pressure on your wrists so you can hold your planks a little longer. Created by the inventor that brought Yogis the Yoga Stick-e Socks, you can pick these up online for $20 at stick-e.com.

SNEWS, Review of the Stick-e Towel
Part of the “Yoga Stick-e” empire that also includes socks, gloves and mat, the towel is an accessory that no gym bag or home workout room should be without – even if you don’t do yoga.
That's Fit, Fit Beauty: Functional Yoga Clothes
Another common gripe in yoga (at least for me) is that my sweaty feet slip and slide all over the floor. But, I'm not about to give up the feeling of my individual toes connecting to the floor. That's where Stick-e Yoga Socks ($19.95) comes in. Your toes stay exposed, they absorb sweat and provide a non-slip grip, not to mention they let you practice comfortably everywhere, no matter how slippery the floor is. (They offer gloves that provide the same benefit, too. You know, in case your hands "glisten" when you hold downward facing dog for more than 30 seconds.)
Working Mother, Wrist Relief
Problem: You love practicing your yoga; you’ve perfected every move with great precision. But many of the yoga positions require you to balance on your wrist, sometimes causing sharp pain. You don’t want to ditch your downward facing dog, but your wounded wrist needs some time out.
Solution: For moves that require resting the weight of your body on your wrist, use a Yoga Stick-e Wrist Saver ($19.95, Amazon.com). The internal padding offers firm protection and guards your wrist from injuries that can occur with one-too-many yoga moves by alleviating pressure on the joints. So you can breathe a sigh of relief and go on with your Plank position with painless ease.
PilatesStyle Magazine Jan/Feb 2010
Teasers Core: A Helping Hand
Working up a sweat is great, but not when it makes your hands slip and slide on the mat. Yoga Stick-e Wrist Saver to the rescue! The new workout tool provides a slip proof grip while also supporting your wrists. Its internal cushioning elevates the heel of the hand, decreasing extension and alleviating pressure on your wrist joints -- the result of which is a painless push-up or Plank position. And no need to don and doff for the rest of your session: The one size fits all supports are virtually weightless ($19.95; yogastickysocks.com).

This morning we look at some gift ideas that will also keep a healthy body in mind. Joining us this morning is nutrition and health advocate and CBS 2 blogger Charles Platkin. December 19, 2009. (Charles recommends the Yoga Stick-e Mat with 3 in1 strap).
New York Times Fashion and Style
No matter how much you love yoga, taking a yoga mat on a trip may seem a little over the top. Yet, either for traction or hygiene, many people prefer to have something between their feet and the surface where they're practicing, especially if it's a hotel room floor or a borrowed mat at a studio. The solution may be a pair of yoga socks.... Some yoga enthusiasts prefer socks to a mat, saying they gain freedom of movement. "Instead of staying within the rectangular confines of a yoga mat, socks can allow a person to spread out and find ease in a pose," said Kasey Luber, the director of Yogamates.com , an online resource for yogis.

From the Mountain to the Mat
Yoga for Outdoor Athletes When you hear the word “yoga,” your first thought may be of a roomful of blissed-out, chanting devotees.

Whether you’re a climber, a cyclist, a runner or a skier, these tips will get you ready to grab your mat and discover yoga’s benefits for yourself.
Why try yoga?

Love To Know... Yoga Socks
What are Yoga Socks? Yoga socks or yoga toe socks help to keep your toes spread with ease. Yoga is about control, balance, and strength, including your toes and feet. Yoga socks allow your toes and feet to strengthen through a stretch and help to train them on cue each time your instructor says, “Spread your toes!” Yoga toe socks typically have a hole for each of your toes to poke through, ensuring increased flexibility. They also come in a mitten form, where your toes are enclosed but encased in toe compartments.
Yoga socks are a good way to achieve what the experts call yoga toes. Depending on the type you buy, you will gain improved balance through non-stick bottom grips along with full toe freedom. Toeless yoga socks are great to wear if you plan to go to class during the day. Wear them under your regular shoes or sandals and once at class, simply remove your sandals and begin your asana routine.
America's Podiatrist Recommends Yoga Stick-e Socks
Not all footwear is bad. Some is quite good. I recently tried Yoga Stick-e Socks and loved them.
They are designed for people who do yoga. The socks allow our feet to keep their natural shape while the sticky surface on their bottoms helps us “grasp” the mat or floor during difficult poses.

What do yoga and skiing have in common? They both need muscle strength and endurance, balance, flexibility and mental focus.
With the colder weather this year, our nearby ski hills and resorts have a great snow pack and have great ski conditions that should last through March. Others of you are gearing up for your spring ski trip out west.
To get you ready both physically and mentally for the slopes, YOGA is the key. Yoga not only helps work on muscle endurance and strength with many of the standing poses but in addition incorporates breathe and mind into the equation. Yoga can also help protect against injury by addressing muscle imbalances and improving flexibility.
This improved body awareness is important when navigating the terrain with other skiers and snowboarders.
Equally important is CORE strength when it comes to the slopes. By controlling your power through your core, you can alleviate some of the pressure on the knees and keep your body working in synergy. Many of my favorite yoga poses stretch and strengthen your abdominals and back muscles.
I'm a skier and the first long run of the year always turns on the burning sensation in the quads - reminding me of the importance of my yoga practice. I even attempted snowboarding for a day and it was crystal clear that body awareness and balance are absolutely required to survive on a board. Whether you are carving "S" turns on your skis or on your board - yoga is truly a great primer for these sports.
Check out a yoga class at your health club or nearby yoga studio. If you'd rather practice in the privacy of your own home, try Yoga DVD to teach you proper form.
A yoga mat is always recommended. The sticky property of a yoga mat keeps your feet in place and helps you hold the poses. If you are one of those people who are always cold in the winter or if your feet sweat a lot - check out Yoga Stick-e socks.
Being barefoot is key for a successful yoga experience - you can try these socks and still have that barefoot feeling. By Chris Freytag

A proper yoga pose typically requires concentration, balance and careful body control. And nothing throws these off more quickly than a lack of traction. Sure, a good yoga mat can keep you from slip-slidin' away during most moves. But some people, especially beginners, can use a little added security, especially when feet get sweaty...

SOCKS WITH SOLE
The situation is a familiar one. You are getting ready for yoga, pilates, or dance class when you realize you don't want to touch the floor with bare feet (foot fungus? no, thanks.) and you can't wear normal socks for fear of slipping and sliding all over the floor. But, with the invention of Yoga Stick-e Socks, consider this predicament a thing of the past. Made with "soft-as-silk" bamboo, the non-slip, sweat-absorbing socks are, as founder Libby Andrews puts it, "the perfect combination of getting that barefoot feeling while maintaining the ability to hold different poses." And, at $19.95 a pair of either black or beige, you've officially run out of excuses for skipping your weekly yoga class. www.yogastickysocks.com. by Rachel Grice

Libby's Luxuries changes name
To better reflect its new business, Libby's Luxuries LLC has changed its name to Stick-e Brands. Libby's Luxuries, based in Flossmoor, IL, started in 2004 as a maker of purses and jewelry, but last December saw great success when it released its newly patented Yoga Stick-e Socks. Since then, it has expanded the Stick-e brand with a full line of non-slip yoga accessories, says owner, Libby Andrews.
Today, the stick-e line includes Yoga Stick-e Socks, Yoga Stick-e Gloves, Yoga Stick-e Towels, Yoga Stick-e Mats, and the Hot & Stick-e Hip Hop Yoga DVD. New retailers include Bed Bath and Beyond, Academy Sports, Health and Sport, City Sports, Solutions Catalog, FootSmart Catalog and Walmart.com.
The new company name is on the Yoga Stick-e Mats that began shipping this month and will be on all future packaging as the company cycles through its inventory, Andrews said.
The company has also devised a new slogan: "Stick-e Solutions for Slippery Problems!" And it wants to solve more of them. Along with making her products a mainstay in yoga studios, Andrews wants to broaden the appeal of her brand to other sports, design new products specifically for those sports and create new sizes.
"We would like to see more martial arts, and dancers experiencing the benefits of Yoga Stick-e Socks and to launch them into children's sizes," Andrews said. "We also plan to build on the success of YOga Stick-e Socks and bring the same patented product made from other materials to beach and water sports, including surfing, sailing and beach volleyball."

One element cuts into your peaceful, easy feeling at yoga: the classroom mats. More specifically standing on them with sweaty bare feet, just like all the other practitioners before you. If you’re not willing to tote your own mat, Yoga Stick-e Socks provide a hygienic alternative. Cutouts for toes help youget a grip for poses.

The socks are clearly touching a chakra. Bed Bath and Beyond has picked up the socks for 30 stores across the country. Yoga Stick-e socks are $19.95 at yogastickysocks.com, where you can also preorder the upcoming Stick-e Gloves ($17.95) and Stick-e Towel ($29.95).
SNEWS Fitness, Summer 2008 issue
Gear's Just Gotta Be Fun
The Novaks have been on a mission for the last few months to find more yoga and Pilates gear they can sell. In fact, they picked up an item called Yoga Stick-e Socks (www.yogastickysocks.com) after reading about the toeless crop socks (MSRP $20) with a rubberized sole in SNEWS in February. The sock company had just been announced as a finalist for a BrandNew award at the winter ispo show in Germany.
Founder Libby Andrews has been swamped with requests and orders for her socks and will exhibit at the Health & Fitness Business show in July to introduce what she calls a Stick-e Towel ($30.00) that has a rubberized strip on one side, created to solve the problem of towels that slip off benches, mats or treadmills. She's also off to create a "Stick-e" empire with a mat coming soon.
Hello Beautiful
Yoga Stick-e Gloves By June 9, 10:43 AM
Okay, this one's a personal Gimme. I love yoga, but I also have the clammiest hands in the world. Gross. However, there's now a company called Stick-e that makes gloves, socks, and yoga mats that stick to the ground so you aren't sliding all over the place while posing, and it's quite possibly one of the most clever-yet-simple inventions of the past few years.
On the socks and gloves, here's a little grippy gel pad where your soles/palms go, so you can enjoy a relaxing session without sliding all over the place in the meantime (all those other Clammy Sammies out there know exactly how ridiculously difficult Downward Dog is when your palms aren't cooperating).
Also, the fact that these were invented at all means there are more people like me out there, which is kind of a comforting feeling. I'm now addicted to these things!
Stick-e also has a "Hip Hop Yoga" DVD, but I don't know about all that.

Yoga Stick-e Socks – Owner and inventor Libby Andrews was blown away with the reaction to her toeless socks, just out in December, with a rubbery bottom for yoga. In fact, she said on the first day she already had distributors fighting over the rights for their country. They are a fascinating, simple idea that goes beyond yoga to dance, martial arts and other forms of workouts and practices that are best with barefeet but where you need a little grip or protection. www.yogastickysocks.com

Eco Friendly Yoga Socks
From some of my other posts you know I am a yoga fan. Yoga is awesome for stretching out those sore muscles you get from sitting too long at a computer…not that I…do that or anything. But I ran into a yoga problem at my new house. The room I like to do yoga in (floor to ceiling windows all along one wall) has a hard wood laminate floor and when you do yoga on a rug or a yoga mat…you slip and slide and almost break your neck…or smack your head into the brick fireplace…neither of which is very fun or calming. Even the so-called “sticky” mats don’t often work….I have a few different mats. Bare feet on the floor doesn’t work either…darn that oil slick in my family room.
