Yoga mat Gaiam High Tide Point 5 mm, non-slip exercise mat for yoga and Pilates

Gaiam High Tide Point 5 mm is a lightweight exercise mat designed for yoga, Pilates and general floor workouts. The 5 mm cushioning provides basic joint protection and comfort while the textured surface enhances grip to reduce slipping during poses and transitions. The mat rolls compactly for storage and transport and is suitable for home practice, studio classes and travel.

Advantages

At 5 mm thickness the mat balances cushioning and stability, offering protection for knees and wrists while maintaining connection to the floor for balance. Its low weight and rollable design make it easy to carry and store, and the material wipes clean for routine maintenance.

How to use

Lay the mat on a flat, dry surface and unroll it with the textured side facing up.

Usage recommendations

For improved grip during vigorous sessions, keep the mat clean and dry; consider using an absorbent towel or grip-enhancing spray only if necessary. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and store rolled in a cool, dry place to preserve material properties.
