"Very comfy."

It's a shame this is not available right now because it's a great mat. I've had mine for over a year. If you, like me don't find traditional mats to be thick enough then this is the mat for you. I have problems with my ankles and neck which cause other painful problems as well. I exercise to strengthen my ankles and to relieve tension from my neck, the thin mats do not aid this, but rather cause more problems for me.

This mat is the perfect thickness for me and though I worried it might not offer enough non-slip power while doing poses, it turned out to be just fine. I've used it for yoga and Pilates with good results. The mat does not seem to get dirty easily or pick-up odors.

The only downside is that because it is so thick you cannot use a strappy sling carrier for it w/o possibly damaging it as the straps will press marks into it. I use a yoga sling bag instead, which is actually better because it has a pocket and offers more protection for it while in transit.

Petite people like myself may find it a bit long, but that can turn out to be useful for some poses. Overall I am very happy with it and if I ever need another mat I will look to the Bodytrends brand first. 4 stars

"Body Trends Mat"

I found this mat to be very thick and easy to roll up & store. When you stand on the mat, you cannot feel the hardness of the floor through the material. I can do a full 45 minute pilates or yoga session with no discomfort in my lower back, neck, or spine. The mat stays in place and does not slide during a difficult position. This is a great mat for beginners or intermediates. 5 stars

"great yoga mat"

I thought this mat was great. it has a great thickness that is easy on my ankles. It is plenty long enough for my 5'10" frame.
i like the blue color.
It's not too sticky or too slippery so I have no problems moving around on it.
A great mat. 5 stars

This is a great mat both for pilates and yoga but especially for pilates.

"Soft Yoga/Pilates Mat"

The mat is thicker than the usual mat & soft. There is no slipping during use & it rolls up easily. I enjoy using it. 4 stars
