The Compact Mat

What an awesome mat to have for my group Pilates classes! Shared mats are fine when you don’t have one to bring, but honestly, I truly do not feel like they ever get clean (or dry…). I tried a number of different mats, all rolled and of varying thickness and weight, but only a yoga mat, which is too thin for Pilates, would actually roll out flat. I finally gave up and just suffered through use of the studio mats until my husband gave me one of these as a gift and it truly changed my entire class experience. My feet no longer hurt from standing on an extra squishy mat, which I had honestly stopped doing and started standing on the hard, bare floor next to the mat, and I’m no longer using a damp, smelly mat at the studio! Every Pilates lover should have one of these to carry to class and the studio mats should be an emergency backup. Even my instructors have been really impressed with this mat and have stated they’d like to advocate for students/clients to be encouraged to bring in mats like mine. I’m thrilled!
