The ultimate all-rounder among yoga and fitness mats

Why buy three mats when you only need one? The CORE, with its 6.5 mm thickness, works perfectly for yoga, fitness and Pilates. Thick fitness mats such as 20 mm Pilates mats provide too much cushioning for yoga. In poses on hands or knees the foam sinks in too much, which can strain the wrists. The CORE gives you enough cushioning and comfort for Pilates and intense workouts on your back. You only need to buy one mat, which is better for your budget and for the planet.

Two different surfaces in one mat

The top side has a subtle texture, perfect for Iyengar, Hatha and powerful standing poses where you need extra stability. Flip your mat over and you get a smooth surface that is ideal for dynamic flows. This underside is highly appreciated by Ashtanga yogis. Pro tip: the smooth surface provides 15% more grip with light perspiration. A game changer for your sweaty palms.

A favorite for 33 years

Since 1992 the CORE has been the worldwide favorite of yoga studios and teachers. Why? Because comfort, stability and grip are in perfect balance. This high-end PVC yoga mat has already supported thousands of yogis in their practice and still does. No trends, just quality that stands the test of time.

Being 100 percent industrially recyclable means that after its long life this mat gets a second chance. No guilt, only gains for you and the planet. Get a grip on your practice with the CORE, the mat that has proven for 33 years that quality is timeless.

Use & Care

Useful tip:
Before initial use, we recommend wiping your CORE 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 mat.

To store:
Always roll your CORE 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.

    I’m a yoga teacher, and I’ve used many mats during the years of my Hatha / Kripalu yoga practice. I searched for a mat that would give me the grounding and stability that I needed for a good practice. My search brought me here, and I bought the Kurma CORE.

    I’ve now done my daily practice on this mat for three days, and I can come to some conclusions: I love this mat. I mean, I REALLY love it. Not only is it super sticky (textured side) but it had JUST a LITTLE bit of give or softness on the surface to make my practice more comfortable. Not enough give to challenge you during balancing poses, of course. But enough softness to allow you to sink-in just a bit, and make my knees hurt a bit less.

    So, I’m very pleased. Definitely recommended.

    I really like this mat and I like the Petrol-colored one for sure!
    It’s so nice to have a 6,5 mm mat ~ it really makes a difference in your practice!!!
    You can use both sides of the mat – so it is interesting to turn your mat form time to time ~
    But I prefer the softer side.
    It’s a heavier mat ~ so I use it at home.

    Have been using this mat for a couple of months, and enjoying it, especially the soft side. Only when my hands are *very* sweaty during an intense session, I lose my grip sometimes. But really like the sturdiness and thickness of this mat.. I don’t need extra padding for my knees anymore!

      Thanks for your thoughtful feedback! We’re delighted to hear you’re enjoying the comfort and durability of your CORE mat.

      Its closed-cell surface delivers excellent dry grip and outstanding longevity. During very sweaty practices, however, moisture remains on the surface, so placing a yoga towel on top can help maintain grip. If you regularly practice hot yoga or vigorous Vinyasa, our GECO natural rubber mats offer even better grip thanks to their open-cell surface.

    Ik gebruik deze mat voor yoga en Pilates. Ben heel tevreden over de kwaliteit, voelt zacht en comfortabel, zelfs wanneer ik een oefening doe op mijn knieën wat niet evident is (heb een knieprothese). Rechtstaande oefeningen gaan ook perfect, ik schuif niet, heb 100 % grip. Ook dat deze mat volledig recyclebaar is, is voor mij een must als we onze planeet nog liefhebben,
    Kort gezegd: topkwaliteit!!!

    Zeg het voort 🙏🙏🙏
