Product Description:
The Harmony Mat is an excellent eco-friendly alternative to PVC-based mats! Its made from all-natural rubber and is a wise, environmentally-friendly choice. At 3/16 thick, this mat is thicker than standard mats and is easy on those knees and hipbones! The Harmony mat also has amazing traction due to its rubber make-up. Whereas most yoga mats can be slightly slippery at first, this mat is ultra slip-resistant the perfect solution for anyone with mat-slipping issues! Because it is made from natural rubber, the Harmony Mat may have a slight rubber scent in the beginning. This hasnt bothered any of our customers, but its good to be aware of this if youre considering ordering it. 3/16 x 24 x 68 (slightly thicker than a standard mat) Available in standard length (68') for $54.00 or extra-long (74') for $59.95. Available in Sedona red, Tibetan orange, black, midnight blue, orchid, and olive green.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So far so good!
I've used it a handful of times and it is just the right thickness and isn't slippery at all :) I don't notice the rubber smell and love that it's a little more earth-friendly than other options.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Worth the extra money
These mats are much more "sticky" than the average mat even when I am sweating from a hot practice. They are also thicker and can be purchased in a longer version (good for tall people and angle or lunge poses). Some people are bothered by the rubber smell - I hung mine over a rod for a week and it seems fine. The sustainability was important to me too - a natural product helps me feel more connected to the world than a petroleum product. I recommend these to my students and to you too!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wearing out after 4 practices, stinky, but non slip and feels good.
This mat is wearing out really fast in spots wear it gets consistent pressure/dragging. also, you really really have to wash your hands at least 3 times after using the mat, otherwise you will get a bitter rubber taste if you try to eat or cook anything. and the mat smells strongly of rubber (which doesn't bother me--its a natural smell--but might bother some). also it's a little heavy.
having said that, i will add that this is the first mat i have used that does NOT slip even when sweaty! ... Read More
