Round Mats

After looking at the Cathe Perfect 30 previews and owning Jessica Smith yoga stretches, I can see the need for a circular mat.

Looking at Amazon I saw a 4' x 8mm mat for $59. I'm not even sure what size would work the best.

Any thoughts?

I love my circular mat.

I got a cheaper one on Amazon, but it was too small.

Decided to get a Mandala mat, and really like it. It's a 6' mat. Seems like a lot of space, but it's totally worth being able to be completely on the mat no matter my position.

IIRC, sometimes they have seconds for a discounted price. That's what I got, and I seriously can't tell there's anything wrong with it.

I also have a mandala mat for at home and love it. I put another mat on top of it for a little extra cushion.

I have a Mandala and I’ve been using it regularly for at least a year. I love it. My workouts usually involve weights, cardio, stretching all during a session and this mat is great for all. It even has room for my littles to sit and play while I exercise 🤣

I put another mat on it for floor work but not for standing work or barefoot cardio.

I have enough yoga mats but wonder how well it would do for dance and step? Possibly weights too.
