"Plank Yoga Mats are beautiful, grippy and cushiony. The latter two characteristics are fundamental and necessary for a yogi's tactile experience, however, the visual appeal that these mats embody, is really an added bonus. The first time I practiced on a Plank Yoga Mat was for an Extra TV clip shot with Mario Lopez at the Grove in LA.

"This is a fascinating concept, and one that I think will resonate with many practitioners. My experience was that it had just enough texture to require my attention to my foundation in every pose.

"I recently got back into yoga as I was experiencing severe back pain. I signed up for one class just to try it again, and fell in love with the Hot Pilates and Hot Vinyasa Flow.

"These mats may not be for everyone but I think its an investment piece for yourself and to your practice. These mats are one of those things that you will want to keep unrolling...for inspiration." "My personal choice of practice is Vinyasa Flow....sweaty, gooey, great music, deep breathing and my Plank has taken me joyfully thru hundreds of Vinyasas - no slipping, shredding, peeling, flaking."
