Customer Reviews manduka PROlite™ Yoga Mat

For a long time I wanted to have a Manduka mat, and I am delighted with it. A friend, after seeing mine has bought another one.

The mat was a Christmas gift for me. I'm really happy that this year Santa Claus have read my letter and decided to make a gift for me. I'm a beginner, only with couple months of experience in yoga, but for me the mat is perfect. My hands and feet aren't slipping when I do exercises. Mat isn't slipping through floor and stability is ensured. I highly recommend!

The mat showed up on time and was easy to order. It seems really great and durable but lighter than my thicker Manduka mat that I keep at home. Been taking it out and about. Now...what do I do with my old mat that wore out? I'll take it outside for some sessions but other than that...its pretty much unusable.

Love my Manduka mat. I belong to a hot yoga studio, and am proud to say I'm doing a 30 day challenge. Love my mat and use it every day!

I bought this mat a month ago, and I will say even before the breakout it was amazing, lightweight enough to be carried to the yoga studio easily, being in the range of the good yoga mats, of course. Also very stable and not slippery, which even improves after breakout and practice.

its durable mat. A little slippery at first, but that wears off after use. The firmness is awesome for maintaining balance.

I needed another mat besides my pro that was lighter and easier for transport. This mat was perfect for that. The midnight blue color is also amazing. Lots of compliments!

I just want to thank you for making such a great mat to practice. I waited 3 years of practice to buy my first mat. I wanted to find a mat that matches my practice therefore who i am. The blue colour inspires me, the thickness works on hard floors and carpet too, the absence of unnecessary prints or distractions, and the simple lining for alignment. What i truly enjoy is the stickyness. When i first got it and realised before using it i had to "season" it with sea salt, i didn't really get it. Now i know why and the touch result invites me to practice more. Thank you so much Toma xxx

I got this mat after a recommendation from one of my favorite yoga instructors and have been using it for two years now. It looks almost the same as when I first bought it! I mostly do hot yoga and find this mat is not too slippy, although I do use a towel if I'm sweaty. It is relatively portable and has treated me very well!

Great for when I'm on the go. Light and with the same quality of the PRO.

This mat is the perfect amount of cushion, doesn't curl up at the end, and is still easy to grip even when sweaty. Love that Manduka does a lifetime guarantee -- it's deff worth the buy!

I love my Manduka Pro and the pro lite for taking to classes.

I bought the pro lite and I love it! I have a pro as well. The pro lite is great for teaching, its lightweight, comfortable and has great grip!

I got the mat two weeks ago, and it's great! Although the first times it was a little bit slippery, after a few uses it gets better. I really like it, and I'm really looking forward to using it more

I bought this after having the Pro mat. This mat is much lighter and still provides plenty of cushion during practice.

Great mat, especially if you want to practice on a daily basis, I'm quite happy!

I've been in and out of yoga for a while until I decided to include it in my "basic life-improving patters" (e.g. drink lots of water, quit coffee and tea, sleep a lot...). I bought the mat as self-gift and a symbol of commitment to my new yoga goals, and I couldn't believe how much of a difference there is compared to using other mats. It's strong but surprisingly comfortable, not slippery at all, the touch is wonderful, and keeping it clean is super easy. I use it at home, and probably it's too heavy to carry to the studio (for that I'm considering buying another mat) and the breakout process requires planning and delicacy, but worths the effort. The only real con I see is that the palette of colours of gear like accessories are quite limited and in general Manduka needs to improve their colour palette, which is quite random and poor (nevertheless, my purple mat is gorgeous :). First time I used the mat I remembered the BMW ads where they say "Do you enjoy driving?". Well, this is exactly the same, but for yoga!

I am loving my new mat! I followed instructions re: sea salt scrub and have had no issues with slipping. It is just the right level of soft and supportive, and I can tell how durable it is already.

Makes it comfortable to lay on, easy clean up! Perfect

I bought this for my daughter for Christmas. The thickness and weight of the mat are a great. The mat has a good tackiness to it that gives her the confidence she needs to practice difficult poses. I am going to get myself a mat soon too!!

Gave this yoga mat to my daughter for Christmas She loves it!

I bought this to replace my 'cheap' mat that I have had for ages. The Prolite is perfect, thickness and length and not too heavy to carry. Color is perfect as well. I do yoga and Body Flow and use the mat for both. Would like another mat for BF as we use two..maybe next year.
