One of the most frequently asked question we get is ”which yoga mat should I get?”. With so many to choose from it can be hard to distinguish one from another. And mats can be a very personal choice. We all have different needs and requirements. Below is a handy guide to explain the differences for each of our current yoga mats, and the qualities you should consider.
When looking for the best yoga mat for you think about the features you will need and how you will use it. For example if you’d like a mat that is easily portable you might want to look at a lighter weight mat. If you are tall or like extra room a long mat could work better. For those with hard floors or dodgy knees a thicker mat will give you more comfort. Or if you have balance issues a firmer mat might help your stability. Or if you tend to get sweaty hands, then you will need a mat with a surface that grips well with moisture.
In no particular order, here is a brief run down of all our currently available yoga mats. For current pricing please use the product links.
Each of our mats has been carefully selected for its unique combination of comfort, performance, and durability. Whether you’re a beginner just starting your yoga journey, an experienced practitioner, or a teacher looking for reliable studio mats, this guide will help you find the right fit. From lightweight budget options to deluxe professional-grade mats that last a lifetime, there’s something here for every body, every style, and every budget.
The Kurma CORE (Grip) series yoga mats are a high-end mat made in Germany. They are available in 4.2mm and 6.5mm and 185cm long or 200cm long and are a little wider than most yoga mats at 66cm. The 4mm version is light enough to carry around, and the 6.5mm provides a good amount of cushioning without being too soft. They have a lovely top surface that wears in very quickly after about a week of use. The Kurma CORE offers excellent grip, though is less effective with very sweaty hands. These mats are extremely durable and will last a lifetime.
Choose me for: High-end quality that lasts a lifetime
The Easy Grip Yoga Mat is a great light-weight budget mat. Easy to roll up and carry to class. This mat can be used over a yoga studio’s mat if extra cushioning is required. It has a good sticky grip and is firmer and higher quality than other budget mats you see on the market.
Choose me for: Low budget and portability
Our studio mat is a great workhorse yoga mat. 6mm thick is has a cushioning to it, without being too soft to balance. It’s available in 180mm and 200cm lengths and is very popular among yoga studios. This mat will tolerate heavy use for a very long time, and is excellent value.
Choose me for: Quality all-rounder
If you are looking for a mat that works well in humid conditions or with sweaty hands, then this is your yoga mat. The Asana flow yoga mat is rubber on one side and a high-grip surface on the other. Designed to absorb moisture the top layer of this yoga mat stays dry and grippy. Gentle care and storing out of direct sunlight will increase the lifespan of the mat. At 5mm thick it provides a good amount of cushioning. Available in 4 colours.
Choose me for: Excellent grip even with sweaty hands
A firm long wearing 6mm mat the Sadhaka Deluxe Studio Yoga Mat is a favourite with yoga studios. This is another 2 sided mat, with two different textures and tones on each side. The grip takes a little while to develop, but once it does you will have a very sturdy mat that will last for decades. This is one of our heavier mats at 3.2kg and comes in 185cm and 200cm lengths
Choose me for: Firm long lasting support
The Sadhaka Cork yoga mat is designed for those who prefer natural products. It’s a 2 sided mat, with hardened cork on one side, and rubber on the reverse. Like all rubber products it’s best to store out of direct sunlight. This mat works well with sweaty hands, and is 5mm thick.
Choose me for: Eco option
Made from natural rubber and strengthened with jute the Natural Rubber and Jute Yoga Mat is perfect for the environmentally conscious. The rubber provides excellent grip even in more humid conditions and the jute offers texture for extra grip. This mat does have a natural smell from the rubber which does ease with time. It is best to keep this mat out of direct sunlight and only wipe with a damp cloth. Keep in mind rubber does eventually degrade with time.
Choose me for: Natural environmentally friendly materials.
At the end of the day, the best yoga mat is the one that feels right for you, your practice, and your lifestyle. Whether you want something light to carry to class, extra cushioning for comfort, or a mat that stands up to hot yoga sessions, there’s an option to suit your needs.
Think about how and where you practice most often, and what matters most for example grip, support, sustainability, or longevity. Once you’ve got that clear, choosing becomes easy.
