   If you sweat easily like myself, stick to the Yoga towel over your matt. This matt isn’t anymore slip resistant than the sticky-matts for downward dog. Also, noticed that one side started to flake off on the edge after only one use.

   HOWEVER, the 1/4 thick cushion is awesome. Especially for poses like the pigeon, locust, or bow (with the rocking). Great for Pilates & Yoga hard studio floors.

   I went with this matt due to the thickness, eco-friendly materials, and testimony of the Yoga instructor above. Being a 10 year veteran of Yoga; the matt is better supported than the thinner matts…but I’ve yet to find a matt that keeps this sweaty beast from slipping.

   I love this mat! I was really hesitant to buy a new mat since I had been using and loving my other mat for so long (a Baptiste sticky mat by prana) but it had holes in it so it was time. This mat is thicker, which makes such a difference in cushioning my knees in a low lunge and even my wrist bones in down dog. It doesn’t feel sticky but I haven’t slipped. I have learned to trust the amount of friction between my skin and this mat even though it lacks that sticky feeling. (I sweat easily but do not practice hot yoga.)

   The vertical alignment bar really quite useful. I find it helpful for my set up in down dog as well as lunges and trikonasana. My only complaint is that the alignment bar isn’t perfectly in the middle of the mat. It is off by about a quarter of an inch which is subtle but kind of bugs me visually if I’m having one of those days where it’s hard to let go! The bar is still perfectly useful and I find I align with it rather than the edges of the mat so it doesn’t matter that it is slightly off center.

   I hand washed the mat when it arrived despite the fact that it didn’t have an odor or a residue as far as I could tell.

   I’m really happy this mat is TPE (thermoplastic elastomer)since TPE is biodegradeable and recyclable.

   No smell as others have reported. Pretty color. Sticky w/o being too sticky. (I forgot my mat the other day and had to use a school mat–yuk).

   I love this mat, it works very well and gives me just the right amount of cushioning without being to soft when doing balancing poses. It has a bit of an odor but i left it unrolled and it’s starting to air out (a week into using it). I’m glad I bought it, even so I wasn’t familiar with this brand and not sure what to expect.

   I would have never thought a mat could make a difference. For the past 3 years, I have been practicing on a standard mat I got from Walmart. I got a gift certificate to Amazon and order another mat/product package and hated the mat so much I gave it away. This mat is awesome. The feel of it is just incredible. You don’t slip. Plus, it is made in a responsible way. I feel like I got my moneys worth,indeed.
