beth reviewI’m over the age of 60, and have been a yoga practitioner for years. I appreciate the lack of PVCs and the use of natural cork for both health and aesthetic reasons. I also like the way this mat feels under my feet. The thickness is just right – thin enough to give me stability in balancing poses yet the cork is soft to the touch. And as the mat is 6 feet in length, my 5’8″ frame fits so much more easily on this mat than on other, cheaper mats that just barely accommodate my height. Thank you, and I love it.

stacy cork yoga mat review“Ahimsa. I love that cork mats and products are better for the environment. I feel more connected to my yoga practice when I move on my cork mat. It’s a sustainable, renewable, reusable, biodegradable treasure! I would 100% recommend them! They are more expensive, but you really do get what you pay for. When you support small, women run, eco-friendly businesses you are making a statement about your values and beliefs – and, you can’t put a price on that.” Stacy is the studio owner and instructor at Toronto Yoga Co.

This mat is awesome, exactly what I asked for. The urbivore sisters hooked me up with an earlier lightweight version that is perfect for traveling. The cork is nice, just enough cushion on a hard floor, and a quality build. Highly recommend. (Sweat not included.)

Excellent grip and smooth surface. Mat grips well to the ground and to your hands. You can definitely see where you sweat. I’ve been using the mat for primary series practice. This is my first cork mat, I love it and I can’t wait to roll it out every day. 🙂

(prior to this I was using a jade travel mat, and a lululemon rubber supernatural mat)

I love this yoga mat. This was my Valentine’s/1 year of yoga present. I am so glad I picked this mat. I spent the extra money on the 4mm mat and it was worth the extra money. The mat itself is a little heavy, but it comes with a high quality canvas carrying strap. I do vinyasa (flow) yoga and I have to wear gloves and socks with grips because I sweat so much on the mat. Not anymore with this mat! The mat actually does what they advertise. It creates a resistance when you sweat. The grip on the bottom of the mat works really well as well. I no longer have the issue of my mat sliding while I flow. The shop itself is very nice as well. They put cute stamps on the outside of the package and sent me free yoga mat spray with a little cute handwritten note. It was such a nice personal touch. I will be buying again from this shop.

I bring this mat to hot yoga and it is the best! I never have to worry about losing grip during poses. It also doesnt hold in a sweat smell like most yoga mats and cleans very easily Definitely worth the money.

The best quality yoga mat I’ve had and packaged with no plastic. Just something to keep in mind if buying as a gift… I live in New Zealand and waited over 2 months for package because of Canada Post

Zoeii on 25 Jan, 2018

This mat is the best yoga mat ever. I didn’t slip or the didn’t bunch up. I was using a cheap mat before, well now I can focus completely on my practice and not wiggling around. Thank you!! I love using it on my cork mat to bring my practice to the next level.

This is a quality item that I will treasure for a long time. Unique, with a great design to boot, people will be asking you where you’ve gotten this!

So cute! Fast shipping and very comfortable

Love the feel of it

Vivian Qiu on 06 Dec, 2017

I love this mat so much – It’s my favorite mat I’ve ever had. Before this, I had a manduka prolite, and a jade travel mat, and this mat is undoubtedly stickier than both of these notoriously sticky competitors. The padding is great. I love this thing and I’ve only had it two days.

Nathan Hankes on 08 Dec, 2017

This is the perfect mat for hot yoga.

pambuch on 26 Aug, 2017

Beautiful mat! Arrived it great time too!

kimberleyjane15 on 29 Aug, 2017

I love this mat! The nonslip aspect has helped me deepen my practice and I’m very grateful for that thank you for the great quality mat!

Kelsey Leimeister on 13 Apr, 2017

Absolutely love it! High quality and beautiful! You both are awesome, thank you again =)

StacieCullen on 26 Dec, 2018

First of all, the quality of this mat is exceptional! Oh my gosh, it’s so thick
and cushy! I was afraid the cork would be super thin, but that’s not the case at all. It’s perfect and lovely. These sisters went above and beyond to ensure it made it under the tree in time for my daughter for Christmas. I highly recommend their mats!

Beautiful mat, using it everyday. Extremely and surprisingly soft to the touch! Great purchase!

mchairez214 on 17 Apr, 2018

Love love love. Got this as a birthday gift and couldn’t be any more obsessed with it. You can tell it’s made with love! Thank you!

Raven Bickley on 01 Mar, 2018

Timely shipping. Fantastic quality of product! This is the highest quality yoga mat I’ve ever had and the bonus mat spray that was included was delightful. The eco friendly aspect is my favorite part! I’ve used the mat both indoors and outdoors as well as on uneven surfaces and it does a phenomenal job of keeping me where I’m planted. Thank you so much for enhancing my yoga experience. 🙂

Caitlin Gottschalk on 30 Jan, 2018

Gorgeous. Awesome texture. Such good quality. I’d recommend this to any yogi! Thank you for creating such a wonderful mat! I love it 🙂

Katie Ross on 31 Jan, 2018

I’m so in love. The simplicity, the beauty, the grip…it’s transforming my practice one session at a time.
