1. An article of clothing for a human, comprising: at least one tubular leg structure configured to surround a leg of a wearer, formed of a breathable and stretchable fabric having a smooth low friction surface;a strap within each tubular structure, configured to extend from at least a region lateral to an ankle of the wearer, beneath the sole of the foot, and back to at least a region medial to the ankle of the wearer, and being further configured to permit grasping of the strap for stretching of muscles within the leg of the human wearer; andat least one portion on an outer surface of the tubular leg structure, having a coefficient of friction with respect to the smooth low friction surface of the fabric which is at least double a respective coefficient of friction of the smooth low friction surface of the fabric against itself, selectively formed at least at a contact position of the leg of the wearer against another portion of the wearer during a Yoga exercise,wherein the strap further comprises a non-slip rubber heel grip with narrow nylon stretching strap with loops, attached on an inner surface of the at least one tubular leg structure, at medial and lateral seams, wherein said loops protrude through and are exposed at an outer surface of the at least one tubular leg structure. 2. The article of claim 1, configured as at least one of pants, Capri pants, a legging, and a knee brace. 3. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one portion is formed on each of a pair of corresponding contact positions of the wearer during a Yoga exercise. 4. The article of claim 1, further comprising at least one padded portion on at least an inner thigh of a pants leg configured to distribute a contact load. 5. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one portion comprises foamed elastomer having a textured exposed surface. 6. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one portion on an outer surface of the tubular leg structure comprises padding material selectively formed in a pattern corresponding to at least one muscle group of the human leg, configured to distribute contact loads of the at least two portions of the wearer. 7. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one portion comprises a plurality of spaced portions proximate to the contact position, wherein the plurality of spaced portions are separated by fabric absent the at least one portion having a coefficient of friction with respect to the smooth low friction surface of the fabric which is at least double a respective coefficient of friction of the smooth low friction surface of the fabric against itself. 8. The article of claim 1, wherein the article comprises pants for a wearer, with the at least one portion being provided in a bilaterally symmetric configuration at contact positions provided on regions of the pants corresponding to inner thighs of the wearer over the Sartorius, Gracilis, and Vastus Medialis muscle group area, on the outer thighs of the wearer over the Vastus Lateralis, Iliotibial Tract, Rectus Femoris muscle group area, and on the lower back of legs-calfs and popliteal fossa of the wearer over the Gastrocnemius and Soleus-Adductor Magnus and Adductor Longus muscle group areas. 9. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one portion comprises a pattern of padding corresponding to at least one muscle of the wearer adapted to distribute contact loads. 10. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one portion is provided in a bilaterally symmetric configuration at respective contact positions provided on the inner thighs of the wearer over at least the Sartorius, Gracilis, Vastus Medialis and Adductor Magnus muscle group areas, and on the outer thighs of the wearer over the Vastus Lateralis, Iliotibial Tract, Rectus Femoris muscle group areas. 11. An article of clothing, comprising: at least one tubular structure configured to surround a human leg formed of a breathable and stretchable fabric having a smooth low friction surface;at least one strap, configured to be anchored to the leg of the wearer and extending from at least a region lateral to an ankle of the wearer, beneath the sole of the foot, and back to at least a region medial to the ankle of the wearer, and being further configured to permit stretching of muscles within the human leg by grasping of the strap; andat least one portion on an outer surface of the tubular structure, having a coefficient of friction with respect to the smooth low friction surface which is at least double a respective coefficient of friction of the smooth low friction surface of the fabric against itself, formed at a potential contact position of two portions of the wearer during a Yoga exercise,wherein the at least one strap further comprises a non-slip rubber heel grip with narrow nylon stretching strap with loops, attached on an inner surface of the at least one tubular structure, at medial and lateral seams, wherein said loops protrude through and are exposed at an outer surface of the at least one tubular structure. 12. The article of claim 11, wherein the at least one portion comprises a pattern of frictional padding material corresponding to at least one muscle of the wearer adapted to distribute contact loads of the at least two portions of the wearer. 13. The article according to claim 11, comprising pants having a waist region, and two leg sections, said pants comprising mirror image locations, with respect to a median line, of the at least one portion comprising non-slip frictional grip areas, forming a frictional surface extending above the outside surface of said pants, adapted to resist a sliding movement of a contacting object. 14. The article according to claim 13, wherein the pants legs have a length extending down a leg of a wearer to at least a mid-calf region, each leg having the friction grip on at least its inner thigh region, outer thigh region, lower back of leg-calf and back of knee region, and Lower front Leg/Shin region. 15. The article of clothing according to claim 11, wherein the fabric comprises polyester-polyurethane copolymer fibers formed into an article of clothing, and the at least one portion comprises molded regions of an elastomer on an exterior surface of the fabric. 16. An article of clothing, comprising: a fabric forming a tubular structure conforming to a human leg;at least one strap, configured to be anchored to the leg of the wearer at or below the knee of the human leg, and being configured to extend from beneath the sole of the foot, to permit stretching of muscles within the human leg by grasping and stretching of the strap; anda permanently affixed material, formed on an outside surface of the fabric, positioned at a region of contact during an anatomical pose of the wearer,wherein a frictional coefficient of the outside surface of the fabric rubbing against an outside surface of the permanently affixed material has a lower frictional coefficient than the permanently affixed material rubbing against the permanently affixed material, such that a force parallel to the outside surface of the fabric by the wearer with the permanently affixed material proximate to the outside surface of the fabric permits ease of sliding to achieve a yoga pose, and when the permanently affixed material is rubbing against the permanently affixed material with a force applied by the wearer between the respective surfaces of the permanently affixed material, a sufficient frictional force is present to assist the wearer in holding the yoga pose without continued exertion of forces parallel to the surface of the permanently affixed material,wherein the at least one strap further comprises a non-slip rubber heel grip with narrow nylon stretching strap with loops, attached on an inner surface of the tubular structure, at medial and lateral seams, wherein said loops protrude through and are exposed at an outer surface of the tubular structure. 17. The article according to claim 16, wherein the permanently affixed material is formed at least on an outer thigh region of the article of clothing. 18. The article according to claim 16, wherein the permanently affixed material comprises an elastomer, and the fabric comprises elastane fibers. 19. The article according to claim 16, wherein the permanently affixed material comprises padding material selectively formed in a pattern corresponding to at least one muscle group of the human leg, adapted to distribute contact loads of the at least two portions of the wearer. 20. The article according to claim 16, wherein the at least one strap further comprises a set of graspable loops, attached on an inner surface of the tubular structure, at medial and lateral seams, wherein said graspable loops protrude through and are exposed at an outer surface of the tubular structure.
