The 6mm TPE yoga mat in short

It has a double-layer build: a softer layer cushions knees and wrists and a firmer layer keeps standing poses steady. Both sides are non-slip, the surface is closed cell, and a carry strap clips on and off. It ships direct from an Australian supplier warehouse.

TPE, latex-free and PVC-free: what that means for you

TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) is a closed-cell foam. Sweat and dirt sit on the surface instead of soaking in, so a wipe with a damp cloth cleans it. That matters more on a mat you use most days at home than on one that lives in a studio.

TPE gives a bit more spring underfoot than natural rubber. Some people who do long standing balance holds prefer rubber for that reason. For home yoga, Pilates mat work and stretching, TPE is a sensible middle choice.

Is 6mm the right thickness for you

6mm sits between thin travel mats and thick Pilates or exercise mats. It is thick enough to kneel on in a low lunge or cat and cow, and thin enough that you still feel the floor in tree pose and warrior holds.

ThicknessSuitsTrade-off
2 to 4mmTravel, flowing classes on carpetLittle cushion for knees on hard floors
6mm (this mat)Most home yoga, Pilates, stretchingVery sensitive knees may want more
10mm and upPilates rolling work, sore kneesWobblier for standing balance poses

On timber or tile floors, 6mm is the thickness most people stick with. If kneeling hurts on any mat, fold one end of the mat over under your knees or read the thick mat guide for bad knees. The full comparison is in thick vs thin yoga mats.

Who it suits, and who should pick something else

A 20 minute first session on the mat

This short routine uses the whole mat length and checks the grip on both standing and kneeling poses. Hold each pose for 5 slow breaths unless noted.

  1. Child's pose, 1 minute, knees wide on the softer cushion.
  2. Cat and cow, 10 slow rounds.
  3. Downward dog, 5 breaths, pedal the heels to warm the calves.
  4. Low lunge, 5 breaths each side, back knee down on the mat.
  5. Warrior two, 5 breaths each side. Your feet should not slide.
  6. Tree pose, 30 seconds each side, to test standing stability.
  7. Glute bridge, 2 sets of 10.
  8. Seated forward fold, 1 minute.
  9. Supine twist, 1 minute each side.
  10. Lie flat and rest for 2 minutes.

More routines are in yoga for beginners at home and the daily stretching routine.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is the 6mm TPE yoga mat delivered in Australia?

The mat is $60 AUD including GST, and delivery is included to most of Australia. Enter your postcode in the cart to confirm the total before you pay. A few remote postcodes cannot receive some items, and the cart says so.

Is the TPE yoga mat latex-free?

Yes. The mat is TPE foam, which is latex-free and PVC-free. That makes it a suitable choice for people with a latex allergy who need to avoid natural rubber mats.

Is 6mm thick enough for yoga on a hard floor?

For most people, yes. 6mm cushions kneeling poses on timber or tile and still feels stable in standing balance poses. If your knees are very sensitive, fold the end of the mat under them or look at a thicker exercise mat.

Can I use the yoga mat for dumbbells?

No. Dumbbells dent and tear TPE foam. Use a 10 to 15mm rubber gym mat under free weights and keep the yoga mat for floor work and stretching.

How do I clean a TPE yoga mat?

Wipe it with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, then let it air dry flat. The closed-cell surface keeps sweat on top, so a wipe after each session is enough for most people.

How long does the yoga mat take to arrive?

It usually dispatches within 1 to 3 business days. Metro delivery usually takes 2 to 7 business days after dispatch, and regional and remote areas take longer.
