Aura Cork Yoga Mat

This mat is so easy on my knees! I have not felt any discomfort since using it. It beats Using a folded blanket on my previous thin mat any day!

This is the best yoga mat I have tried. Excellent quality and provides comfort to my hyper sensitive knees from old injuries. I was hesitant to order the mat because of the cost, but it is worth every penny! I am very happy with my purchase.

This mat is the perfect thickness for me. It’s just enough cushioning to help me in tabletop positions, but not so thick that it adds a challenge when in balancing poses. Highly recommend for at home practice. Wouldn’t take this into a hot yoga class though; probably wouldn’t hold up for very long there. 

I purchased this mat after researching sustainable yoga mats and comfort. This mat is absolutely amazing! It’s comfortable without being too cushy and is perfect on my carpet or on my concrete porch.

This yoga mat is amazing. It’s thick enough to give me the knee support I need. It is easy to wipe clean and always keeps me from slipping so I can commit fully to my poses without worrying about falling.

This is such a beautiful mat. I bought it for a few reasons. One of them is because I have sweaty palms and this mat has really helped my hands stand in place. It’s been really supportive for my knees, but soft enough for them too. Another reason is the environmentally conscious materials used. The cork mat has been great and with proper care I’m hoping it will last me a long long time. Thank you for creating this product!

This is my first yoga mat and I love it. I’ve used my wife’s mat before (not a Yoloha) and it’s alright but I love the cork on the Yoloha. I’m a beginner so I haven’t done any difficult poses on it or anything but I can tell it’s going to be a great mat always.

I do pilates daily, and I got this yoga mat because I was tired of my sweaty hands sliding down the yoga mat when I was trying to do planks, downward dog, or really any pose or exercise with pressure on my hands. This mat is everything I hoped and dreamed it would be – now my hand stick to the mat and I slide no more! Plus I just really like the firm and supportive, yet soft cushion of the mat, the look and feel… no regrets.

What a difference a quality yoga mat makes! I’m new to consistent yoga practice and I was using a friends old mat. Some moves really hurt my knees and the mat didn’t feel great to the touch. My new mat is beautiful, perfectly cushioned without being too thick, and feels great to the touch. One minor irritation is that it doesn’t stay rolled up very well for storing. I’m wishing I had a strap to keep it together.

As someone who is over 6 feet tall, I love the bigger size of this yoga mat but I wish the ones with the designs were available in that size. Overall, I’m very pleased with my purchase. There was a small piece of the cork that had looked like it had fallen off of the mat but I hardly notice it when I’m practicing

I’ve just recently started going to a yoga class regularly and was in need of a good mat. I came across the Yoloha Cork mats and loved the idea of cork and the look of them. This mat is a complete game changer and makes a huge difference in my practice. I used to struggle with knee poses and with this mat, it’s a non-issue. The only thing I’ve noticed is that I do tend to slip a little. I need to try lightly wetting the mat before I begin, as recommended, to see if that helps. I highly recommend this mat to anyone looking to up their yoga practice.

I was most excited to try out a cork mat as I typically sweat a lot during my Ashtanga practice. I’ve been practicing for almost 2 years now and am happy to have finally found a mat that works well as I perspire. With that, until I start sweating, I have quite a bit of “slippage” from both my hands and feet during the first 20 min of practice. I’ve practiced on the mat a total of 3 times now and need to carry around a spray bottle to mist the mat at the front and back before I start sweating to maintain grip. I went from a firmer mat to this more cushioned option, which I like. The extra cushion is very kind to sensitive knees. It also makes balancing postures more challenging, which I like. I would recommend this mat to others, with the caveat that you’ll need to lightly mist the mat throughout practice if you don’t sweat a lot. I’ll write a follow up to this review once I’ve had more practices on the mat. Namaste Peeps!

Great cushioning, zero slip, lightweight & packable, I really like the ‘extra’ width compared to my last mat.

It’s not as firm as the Manduka, but not as unforgiving on joints, back, or head. It’s not as soft and comforting as the Jade, but it’s more supportive for anything with balance, including headstand. And it doesn’t have a smell that my wife hates.
With the BF sale price it was around 1/2 what these other Big Deal mats cost.
And it’s so light it feels like nothing.
Excellent mat for this old (73!) yogi.

Ok, so I had a perfectly good mat but the faster paced yoga I was started to do—my old mat didn’t seem to be cutting it any more—it shifted too easily. Plus I noticed that it really didn’t work well on carpet. So I decided to try yours and I’m SO glad I did. As someone just getting back into yoga in earnest and a slightly more advanced version (for me anyway), your mat literally goes NOwhere during my 45-min flow. I love how it looks (I’m kinda minimalist by nature), how it smells (natural) and how it feels. And that sweating on the mat thing—LOL—totally not worried about it. Easily the best purchase I’ve made in a while. Nicely done, fam!

P.S. Totally dug the personal touches in the package (the cork stickers). <3

I’ve used other mats before but none have come close to the level of comfort this mat has. Two thumbs up from me!

This mat is fantastic! It not only provides a great grip, it also is super comfortable and provides great support for me. I love it!

I really like this mat, I practice hot yoga often and there has been no smells at all. I clean it after every practice just since there’s so much sweat. I think I want to try the Native mat because I don’t think my Aura would have the best grip in non-heated classes. As it says in the description, it’s not the best for sweat pools which is another reason I’m thinking I may want to switch to the Native. All in all, this is a solid mat! Would totally recommend to anyone.

This is the perfect mat if you have joints that need a little extra support. Coming from someone with lupus, my joints always hurt and this mat makes yoga way more enjoyable! Also better grip (especially with hot yoga) I’m so glad I found this mat and this amazing company!

I got my first cork yoga mat the Christmas of 2016. I learned about Yoloha yoga mats after reading about them in Yoga Journal magazine. I can honesty say I will always be apart of the Yoloha family. I love my cork yoga mats. Never had an issue with either one of my mats. I regularly teach beginners or Vinyasa yoga, so I can only talk about my experience with the mat.

I purchased an Aura mat and strap as a birthday present for my daughter. She wanted a Yoloha cork mat, but it was a luxury as a college student. The smile on her face when she unwrapped the present was worth every penny of the price. The mat and the strap are both high-quality products. I so was impressed with the quality of Yoloha’s products that I am looking to purchase a mat for myself, as I have recently taken up yoga at my daughter’s suggestion to increase flexibility on the days that I do not train with kettlebells.

Love it. It’s everything I have been looking for. Has a great grip, doesn’t smell and is super soft and comfortable.

I was referred this mat by my hot yoga teacher and she let me use one in class. Before I purchased though I decided to try a lululemon option as well. There is no comparison! I love how secure I feel on my Aura mat and the cushioning is so nice. I also love not having to worry about bringing a yoga towel to class and how no amount of sweat causes me to slip. Amazing product!

I really love it so much, all my friends at yoga are jealous!

This mat is exactly what I was looking for. It has no offensive smell, is made from sustainable resources, and is lightweight but sturdy. It has good grip, but still allows you to slide into different positions. Thanks for making a great product!!!

I was looking for a mat that would be thick enough to protect my knees from my hardwood floors and this mat is perfect. I love the natural cork! I am very sensitive to the smell of other mats and I definitely do not have that problem with this one. The cork feels soft when you initial touch it, which worried me at first, but I had no issues with slipping. I actually found the mat to grip especially well once your palms start heat up a few minutes into practice.

The grip on this mat is lovely. You can practice with it dry and it’s a bump up from the standard grippiness…but the real strength shows up if you or the mat is wet. Even beginners will stick with that Down Dog if they only wet the mat (or themselves) just a teeny bit! The only downside to this mat is how much my cat loves it. He seriously just rolls around and freaks out whenever I begin my practice! No judgement though, I guess some mornings I just roll around on the mat too 🙂

I’ve only had the mat for a week, but I love everything about it. The padding makes such a difference in my practice. Also, loving the extra couple inches of length since I am tall. And, no slipping! Very happy with my purchase.
