Vikuta Yoga Mat. Premium Non-Slip eco-Friendly mat Ideal for Yoga, Hot Yoga, Bikram, Ashtanga Yoga, Hatha, and Vinyasa Yoga. Natural Rubber with eco Polyurethane Surface. (Plum)

Very pleased with the Vikuta Yoga Mat! It's definitely sticky which was key for me since my hands and feet were slipping on the cheap-o mat I'd been using (even with a yoga towel over it). In addition to being sticky, the Vikuta mat is dense which makes it firm; but it's still cushiony without being squishy. The combination of density and stickiness provides the traction and stablility I need for balancing and strength poses but there's also enough give to make kneeling and resting poses comfortable. I've only used it for several practices so I don't know how it will hold up over time, but it's ticking all the right boxes so far. I don't do hot yoga, so I can't speak to how the mat responds in that environment.Note: It feels a little awkward initially to roll the mat with the "up" side facing out, but that's the best way to do it.

I love how stinky this mat is during class! I do hot yoga and I am dripping sweat all class but I am able to keep my grip! Only down fall which may be fault due to the color I picked but after every class everyone has a good laugh at the fact there is a perfect sweat body still laying on the mat once I get up. I am guessing it's just how the material holds the moisture and that is what makes you not slip but I would say maybe go with the black mat so your can't see that as much and I do then lay my mat out at home over night so it's dries out! Overall though great mat if you want to be able to stick to your mat during class

This mat is hard & thin so it does not provide padding for supine poses or knees. It's very heavy but that didn't really bother me. A bit of a pain carrying all weekend at yoga retreat. The surface has easily been marred after owning it only a couple months. It doesn't roll easily so it gets wrinkles where it folds. The cat scratched it too, which is my fault but the cat never scratches the other mats so makes me think it just has a delicate surface. The grip is fine, the color is nice. I'm going to offload this to someone who does not have a mat. I'm a yoga teacher & an avid yogi. This might be okay if you're practicing at home on carpet!

This is by far the best yoga mat I've ever used! I have arthritis in most of my joints and I'm in pain most of the time. I try to do yoga often to relax and ease the pain. Every mat I've tried has been a challenge because I slip on it. With this Vikuta Mat it's like it holds me in place and I can easily do the moves to help my body feel better. The thickness is perfect! With my condition sometimes I don't feel super stable, but with how this mat grips I am comfortable and confident in doing any move. I LOVE how it's helped me enjoy doing yoga again!!

I really like this mat. its longer than the last one I had and it is truly non slip !!

Used my mat for the first time today. The only negative thing I would say about it is that's it's heavier than I expected. I love the color and feel of it. Will try it in hot yoga and see how it does.

The best yoga mat I've ever had! It's extra long, non-slip, and very dense so it doesn't crease or flip on the corners as you're doing your routine. It's a very heavy mat so you can't carry it long distances. But that's why it's so sturdy!

This mat is great! It really is cushioned and I don't slip. One problem is its heavy!
