33 Years a Favorite

The CORE Black has been the favorite of yoga studios and teachers worldwide since 1992. And for good reason. This is the mat that effortlessly combines comfort, stability, and grip. Not a trend, but pure quality. The CORE Black is now available in three sizes: 60x200cm, 80x200cm, and 100x200cm.

Two Different Surfaces, Endless Grip

On top, you’ll find a subtle texture perfect for Iyengar, Hatha, or that strong Warrior II. Flip it over and you’re on a smooth underside, ideal for dynamic flows. For the Ashtanga junkies: the smooth surface offers up to 15% more grip when you start to sweat.

One Mat for Everything

Yoga, Pilates, fitness: this mat doesn’t fuss. With 6.5mm thickness, you get just the right amount of support, without sinking in. Thick fitness mats like 20mm Pilates mats offer too much cushioning for yoga. In hands-and-knees poses, the foam compresses too much, which can strain your wrists. The CORE gives you enough cushioning and comfort for Pilates and intense workouts on your back. Just one mat for everything means less stuff and less waste. Your budget and the planet will thank you.

No Slip, Just Flow

The CORE Black is known for its solid dry grip. The closed-cell PVC creates a surface that stays just as sturdy after years of use as on day one. Investing in one good mat? It doesn’t get smarter than this.

Clean and Pure

Made from high-quality PVC, free from harmful substances like phthalates or BPA. Certified according to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® Class I. So you can breathe easy, safely and freshly. Cleaning? Just rinse it off and you’re good to go.

Sustainable to the CORE

Fully industrially recyclable and built to last for years. No guilt, just gains. Choose your size, roll it out, and get a grip.

Use & Care

Useful tip:
Before initial use, we recommend wiping your CORE Black using a cloth or a non-scratch sponge moistened with a few drops of organic washing-up liquid and water. This will remove possible film residue left by the manufacturer. Afterwards rinse with clear water, lay flat and dry completely.

*If you regularly sweat or experience sweaty hands, we recommend using a yoga towel on top of your CORE Black mat.

To store:
Always roll your CORE Black with the embossed top surface facing outwards. This prevents curling edges, ensuring your mat will stay flat to the ground while  you practice. When rolled up the mat stands vertically on its own for easy storage.

To clean:
Thanks to the mat’s closed-cell structure, no deep cleaning is required. Instead, simply clean the top surface with a wet cloth and a mild organic detergent or sanitizing spray if necessary. Rinse with clear water, lay flat and dry completely. The mat can be left to dry in the sunshine.

Putting a mat in the washing machine is not recommended, as this will likely produce dents and creases.
