PRO Yoga Mat – Premium 6mm Thick Mat, High Performance Grip, Ultra Dense Cushioning for Support and Stability in Yoga, Pilates, Gym and Any General Fitness

So worth the money. This is a bit wider than the Amazon mats Honestly though if you have the space and the coin the extra wide version is worth it for home use. I've traveled internationally with this mat. Rolled up it's heavier and more bulky than you expect compared to the cheap mats. A yoga strap would be ideal. These need to be cleaned per the instructions. The material is a little porous: I used vinegar and the mat smelled like Easter eggs for a few months after. If you're a larger man, or practicing on a concrete or tile surface this is the only yoga mat that will save your hands and knees. The material is thicker but also dense. It doesn't affect balance.

This is an awesome mat! Solid enough to feel stable while still providing enough cushion for my joints, and long enough for a tall guy! I like the material used, no strong chemical smell, no annoying designs or images on the mat. It is a bit on heavier side, but that doesn't bother me. I've used a fair amount of different mats over the years, but this one is one of the best I've tried. My biggest challenge with most mats (aside from most just being too short) is losing grip on my hands and feet as I practice. At first this mat was no different, but after I used the salt method to break it in the grip is better, and as advertised, it's getting better and better the more I use it. So that would be my biggest caution for anyone considering this premium mat - you may not love it right out of the box, but give it time

I Love this mat! I am a relative newbie in yoga, have been sporadically going to YMCA yoga classes for a little over a year. I started out by just using the mats at the Y. Then I decided that I would get my own mat... I didn't really want to use the same mat that lots of other people have been using; wasn't too sure how often they are cleaned or the health of previous users of the mats. Well... I got a yoga mat in the $20 range. Thin and my hands slipped in Down Facing Dog. Moved up to a mat in the $30 range and used both mats during practice. No problems with the thickness of the combined mats stacked together (comfort of knees in poses that require you to be on all fours), but still a little problem with slipping hands. And standing balance poses were a little more difficult since the two mats together were a little "spongy" and my balance is not that great that I needed the extra "added benefit" of a less stable surface to balance on! I noticed that all my instructors use Manduka mats... Hmmmm, wonder if the mats are worth the (lots) extra money they cost??? Asked a couple of my instructors, and they all said emphatically "YES!" Sooooo.... Decided to give the $$$ mat a try. I mean, after all, I spend well over $100 for running shoes... and stability and comfort in my yoga mat is also important! Well, I have to say, the instructors are right! I LOVE this mat. My hands do NOT slip in Down Dog, even toward the end of a strenuous yoga workout when I am a little "damp". (I sweat like a well lathered horse after a hard run...). The mat is comfortable in all of the poses that I have done; no issues with knees on the hard surfaces of the gym floor. Standing balance poses have become a little easier; the firmness of the Manduka mat provides stability that I was just not getting with less expensive options. The mat itself is obviously of better material than my previous less expensive mats. Firmer, heavier, less slippery. I have seen some reviews that say it is TOO heavy... not a problem. If you are doing plank position, and you are complaining about the weight of this mat, then something does not equate! I like the fact that the mat has a lifetime guarantee. One of my main instructors has used her mat for over 4 years; and she teaches classes 2 hours a day on average ... every day (or maybe more...). Her mat is still in perfect condition. She said that she went through 2 mats a year before moving up to the Manduka... So is it really more expensive than the cheaper mats??? Maybe not!!! I got the extra long Manduka mat. I am not tall (5'9") but I like to stay on the mat and not on the floor - shorter mats have me hanging off the ends on some poses with the normal sized mats. The longer mat is perfect! If you are new to Yoga, give yoga a try using the studio mats at the class before buying a Manduka (they are expensive). If you like Yoga and want to continue... BUY A MANDUKA MAT!!! You will not be sorry!

An excellent and high-quality yoga mat that will last you a lifetime. I highly recommend the Manduka PRO Yoga Mat. It has a lifetime guarantee and the company is environmentally conscious. The cushioning is great for my knees, elbows, and other joints. It was a little slippery at first, but after using the salt method to break it in, it has been perfect. Be aware that it is a bit heavy, so you might want to get a carrying strap if you plan on taking it to and from a yoga studio. One word of caution: I ordered two of these from Amazon Resale and had to return one because they sent the wrong brand. Be sure to inspect the product carefully when it arrives. Even with that issue, I still highly recommend this mat. It's a great investment and will be your forever mat.

Amazing mat. Works well and it is thick enough for me not to need a knee pad.

Mat zaten uzun zamandır piyasada olan kendini tanımlamış bir mat. Satıcı tahmini süreden çok daha önce kargoladı. Mat’ı ayrıca koliye falan koyması çok daha doğru olacaktır kargoda ezilip büzülmemesi için, mat elastik olduğu için bir zarar görmemiş. Bu matın negatif yönü fiyatı yüksek ve ilk kullanımlarda çok çok kaygan ne yazık ki. Umarım zamanla tutuşu artacak, yorumlar bu yönde

Gets better after a few uses.. highly recommended Good size Love the color

I’m 95kg and need something to support my weight when I put my knee down and that won’t stretch on the floor like a rubber band when I do down dog. This mat is solid and great for someone tall in the XL size.

Es una tapete ideal. Se adhiere bien al piso y tu te adhieres a él sin que esto entorpezca tu práctica. Este modelo es un poco pesado, pero lo prefiero por el grosor, no duelen las rodillas. El curarlo con la sal es un consejo estupendo, sólo que nadie te dice que hay que como que tallarlo un poco, no se aflijan no le pasa nada. El video de Manduka sobre esto es muy ilustrativo, si no lo quieres hacer con el tiempo se lo quitará lo resbalosito, pero si quieres acelerar el proceso usa la sal. Yo lo curé una vez (se puede hacer tantas como sea necesario) y como que aún me resbalaba un poco, por falta de tiempo no pude hacerlo nuevamente en dos semanas así que compré por metro trapo de cocina de microfibra y lo puse en pies y manos, lo rocié con un atomizador con agua y fue espectacular, a los días dejé de usarlo, ya no me hizo falta y ya no lo curé nuevamente. Es un mat del que no se arrepentirán haber comprado. Muy recomendable. Actualización: Ya casi dos años de la compra y luce como nuevo, en verdad estoy muy feliz de haberlo adquirido. Lo volvería a comprar el caso es que creo que no hará falta ;) Actualización 2: Ya son ocho años con él y sigue como nuevo, pero de verdad luce como el primer día. No dejaré de recomendarlo nunca
