Liforme Original Yoga Mat – Free Yoga Bag Included - Patented Alignment System, Warrior-like Grip, Non-slip, Eco-friendly and Biodegradable, sweat-resistant, long, wide, 4.2mm thick mat for comfort

As a 27 year old man I was always dismissive of yoga, viewing it as an excuse for women to wear activewear in any and all everyday scenarios without the need to change. This all changed after injuries forced me to access my body which led me to conclude I had the flexibility of a half-jointed scarecrow and was advised to give yoga a crack. Luckily I was eased into my first session through a lunch time class my work holds on a Thursday where the skill range wasn't that high so they were patient in fixing any issues in form and I bloody loved it. It both challenged and relaxed me in a variety of ways and I discovered my stereotypical masculine view of 'strength' was no good here rendering me as helpless as a new born giraffe trying to find its feet for the first time. As the days passed and collected more classes under my belt my flexibility has improved, strength increased, and ability to do poses that I initially wouldn't have wished on my worst enemy are finally within my grasp... but... In mildly warm rooms or a moderately fast flow class I release enough sweat to become a human humidifier. I'm talking gallons of the stuff, from fingertip to tip toe, blinding me, dripping from my nose, painting a mural of myself on the mat so future generations will know I was there - a modern day monument for all my sins and stretch sinews. Now, having decided to invest in my first yoga mat so I could practice at home in my spare time, and having experienced many a time my hands slide forward at the pace of a tectonic plate during downward dog, I knew I had to invest in a mat that would limit this or risk an inevitable face-to-floor collision. Ladies and Gentlemen - let me introduce you to the mat my girlfriend introduced me to that I'm now taking to credit for: Liforme. It's been excellent so far - nice design, good grip, reasonably padded etc. The fact it comes with a bag is undeniably helpful because it is (surprisingly) heavy. I'm a stickler for detail and getting my alignment juuuuust right so having the markings really help save me time when my anal tendencies do take over. Chuck into the mix that it's eco friendly and I basically threw my money at them. I know it is expensive but I'm an all or nothing kinda guy and understand the value of buying something that'll last both in terms of it's performance and keeping it's 'colour' after drying out. Plus having used a foam type mat at work for a year I can see how quickly the grip has warn AND padding has diminished after just one use a week to an extend that when on my knees I feel like I'm back in primary school praying to the lord Jesus Chris on the wooden bench begging him to tell the priest to finish so I can make sure my knee caps haven't fallen off (and so I could blast out a rendition of shine Jesus shine sharpish!). Over all a perfect product. Nice one Liforme. P.S. You will need a yoga mat towel for Hot Yoga to avoid slipping, no man made yoga mat alone could save you in a Hot Yoga class P.S.S. If I did have a complaint it is that it is TOO grippy and it picks up dirt from my laminated floor that I hovered and mopped two hours before reminding me of my failures as a domestic goddess. I hope this helps :)

Transformed yoga practice beyond my wildest hopes. I don't slip, my knees don't hurt, even my wrists no longer hurt on some poses although I can't see how it's changed that. I don't find it heavy at all - I could easily take it to a class. Love it. Big purchase, worth every penny.

Excellent mat, worth the money

After a couple of months of toing and froing I finally bit the bullet and bought this yoga mat. What took so long to make up my mind was the cost. In the end I remembered that saying ‘you get what you pay for’. Positives It arrived a day earlier than it was due. There was no extra packaging, just the liforme box. The bag for the yoga mat makes it so easy to carry and the strap around the shoulder is well padded so does not dig into your neck. The colour is exactly as expected. It is a perfect size mat. It does not move around on slippery floor. My feet and hands do not slip whilst I have been doing a yoga session. This means I only look an idiot doing downward dog due to my lack or ability rather than my feet and hands sliding around. The markings on the mat help to make it easier to have the correct positions for your hands and fee. It’s easy to roll and up put back in the bag. Now for the negatives…………… I will be doing yoga more as I am so happy with the yoga mat. This could actually be classed as a positive in my husbands eyes. If I could give more stars I would.

No complaints on the grip of the mat, especially when practicing ashtanga. That's the main reason that I purchased this expensive product. It's quite heavy to roll up and down, which I wasn't expecting. Overall I think it's a quality product and worth the money. I'm looking forward to taking my yoga practice to the next level with this mat. There is a slight smell to it at the moment. Hopefully that will wear off in time. The colour is beautiful ❤️

Love it

Ce tapis + son sac sont des produits de qualité (le sac est aussi solide, de qualité et avec de belles finitions). Pour le tapis rien à dire, son poids le plaque bien au sol, son grip est extraordinaire et sa largeur supérieure à la moyenne en font le parfait compagnon de Yoga. Tout cela a un coût… à voir si l’ensemble (le sac de transport et de rangement est un vrai plus et n’est souvent pas inclus) et votre fréquence de pratique justifient de mettre ce prix… Un conseil ce tapis est un merveilleux cadeau pour vous ou un yogi… et pour le petit plus… l emballage super quali ^^ Pour ma part, le prix qui me paraissait trop élevé est justifié finalement 🙂

Love this mat! It’s so grippy and stable during ashtanga or hot yoga practice! Finally have the right mat for my practice. It’s a great size too. I’m 5’8 and im not hanging over the edge!

Tappetino top!non si scivola anche per me che sudo tanto nelle mani e nei piedi!il migliore acquisto che potessi fare anche se un pò caro ma li vale tutti!

使いやすいマットでした。ホットヨガで大量の汗かいても滑りませんでした。
