Yoga Mats By Yoga Zeal - Luxuriously Soft, Thick, Non-Slip, Hot Yoga Mat. Eco Printed. Designed to grip better with a sweaty yoga practice!

Just received this mat and I LOVE IT!!! It's way more exciting and beautiful in person. I guess I didn't pay close attention and was not aware of the texture of the mat, but was very happy with it!!! Way better than what I thought I was getting. Cannot wait to use this everyday!!! So far it's excellent! The material makes it a bit slick, but I think that's more me and what I need to correct with my yoga. But this mat is AMAZING!!! It's beautiful and comfortable and just plain AMAZING! I cannot get over it. Will definitely be ordering from Yoga Zeal again!Update: (month+ later) OMG!!! I took this to hot yoga for 75minutes, vinyasa. it was the best thing ever! I didnt slid AT ALL!!! LOVE IT!

I purchased this Yoga Zeal microfiber mat for my girlfriend's main birthday gift back in May of this year. She was completely stoked! She has really dedicated a lot of her time to YOGA over this past year and it is now a major part of her life! While advancing in her practice I noticed she would sometimes complain about her original mat becoming "slippery" especially during Hot Yoga sessions. So we did a little research and found a solution.....Microfiber! Being a surfer I know how important quality equipment is and how it relates to performance while maximizing the longevity of my gear and my over all satisfaction. Not familiar with Yoga I thought a Yoga Mat was just a piece of rubber someone layed on to do "moves" but after witnessing the joy and serenity this microfiber mat from Yoga Zeal brought to my girlfriend I now know how important it was for her to have this! From what she tells me, her whole yoga experience has changed drastically for the better after I bought her this! I highly recommend this to anyone that is looking to upgrade from a simple mat. I'm still considered "Boyfriend of the Year" 2 months later!

I love this mat, it is lighter weight than my other hot yoga mat so the first time I felt it move under between the floor and the mat. But, now that I'm used to the lighter weight, it is fantastic for hot yoga (I go to Corepower and do HPF, CP2, and Sculpt). I bring a small hand towel and no longer fuss with a mat towel. I sweat a ton and don't slip during flows. Love it!

This is a really nice mat. Very soft and supple, with the the top surface resembling suede and the bottom rubber. Noticed the fibers from the top do not brush off onto my clothes, so that tells me it is good quality. This mat is thinner than standard mats, but is a bit springy with good cushion. I notice the surface is slightly slippery if I'm too extended in my stance, but also I think once it gets broken in a bit more this will not be an issue. Very nice mat, and cool pattern! Also seller is excellent, great communication and really follows through to back their products!

I toyed a lot with the idea of what sort of yoga mat to get. I started using a morning yoga app less than a month ago after a lifetime of *wanting* to be a yogi, & I started taking local classes a few weeks ago, & I knew I wanted a mat of my own, but couldn't really justify spending a lot of money, as someone who was just starting my practice. I considered just getting a cheap one from Target or something, & briefly wanted to get an extra-long mat from Manduka [I'm 6'3"], but I saw the Banana Leaf mat & fell in love. The suede finishing didn't really feel like it took getting used to, since my practice is so new, & I am so happy to wake up every morning & hit my mat, & I have gotten nothing but compliments when I take it to class. As a few other reviews have mentioned, it's pretty heavy, but I don't mind; I'd rather carry it with me & be able to practice on it than leave it home. I honestly recommend this for anyone, beginner or pro.

After researching several yoga brands and mats online, I ordered the Yoga Zeal Black Lunar Yoga Mat. This mat is gorgeous, it has a microfiber vegan suede top bonded to natural tree rubber. The construction and quality is very similar, if not identical to the Mika Yoga and Yoga Design Lab mats. I have a Jade Yoga mat also which is excellent but I really gravitate towards these comfortable microfiber suede top mats. They're recommended for hot yoga and grip better with sweat. However, I actually really enjoy using this mat for my nighttime restorative practice as well. Having a bit of slip is fantastic for a lot of the calming restorative flows. If I need more grip, I lightly mist the mat with an aromatherapy yoga mat spray and it works out brilliantly. I absolutely love the Lunar phases design! I hope Yoga Zeal will add more designs to their collection. I will definitely purchase from them again in the future.

This yoga mat is not only absolutely beautiful in design, but also maintains a high functionality and quality! It did take me a while to get used to the suede top fabric, in comparison to most standard mats rubber feel, however, I much prefer this feel to any of my other mats now! As for slipping, I found that I have to "break the mat in" a bit and after I warmed up (and got a little sweaty) I never slipped, even in some more advanced poses such as crow, or pincha! The thickness of this mat is also perfect for my intermediate practice, supporting me in inversions and handstand play, but not too thick I feel as though it is actually taking away from my ability to balance. Overall, my absolute favorite at by far!

I am in love w/this mat. Not only is the palm print super cute, but it truly is a non-slip mat. I've bought loads of mats before, and since I do lots of hot yoga, my palms are always very sweaty and its hard to find a mat that works. Well, this mat is awesome. I never slip. It's very soft and light to carry. Also, it's machine washable which is amazing since i do a ton of hot yoga and always want to have a clean mat. Super affordable, non slippy, machine washable and cute, affordable...I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!! PS - i'm a picky virgo who is rarely 100% satisfied by products purchased online bc you never know, but this mat really is awesome!

This Was amazing!! My wife loves it so much!The lunar pattern is great for her to centre herself !!!!
