Manduka debuts premium P/ROX hybrid fitness mat

We've always believed your mat should meet you where you move. Today's athletes aren't choosing between yoga and fitness, they're doing both, and deserve equipment built for that

Manduka, a leading manufacturer of premium yoga mats has launched its P/ROX hybrid fitness mat, crafted for athletes and functional fitness practitioners who move between yoga and fitness training.

An evolution of the company’s PRO Series, the P/ROX mat is built with a 2X-reinforced top layer, able to withstand footwear, weights and high-impact movement while maintaining stability and durability.

At 6mm thick with an oversized 76 cm x 200 cm (30″ × 79″) surface, the P/ROX provides generous space and superior cushioning for high-intensity workouts, recovery sessions and mobility training. Meanwhile, its closed-cell construction resists sweat and moisture absorption for hygiene and easy cleaning.

“We've always believed your mat should meet you where you move. Today's athletes aren't choosing between yoga and fitness, they're doing both, and deserve equipment built for that,” said James Appleby, president of Manduka.

“The P/ROX brings the same uncompromising quality our community has trusted for nearly 30 years into the broader world of hybrid training.”
