My knees used to hate me during floor poses. Switching to a thicker mat was the single best decision I made for my practice.
Plain mats are fine but a cool pattern actually makes me excited to practice. These ones get compliments every time.
I needed something I could actually carry across campus without feeling like I was lugging furniture. These fold down small.
A mat alone isn't enough honestly. These little extras made my stretching sessions way more comfortable and organized.
When I was a broke student I needed something decent that wouldn't empty my wallet. These are all solid without the price tag.
