I'm a yoga instructor who tests mats for a living and there's a 40% discount on one of the best right now
If you want a seriously grippy mat that also supports your alignment, check out these Liforme deals

I’m a certified trainer, yoga teacher and fitness editor. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my many years of experience, it’s that quality doesn’t come cheap—especially when you’re looking for a yoga mat that will keep you steady during downward dog and grounded during tree pose.
That’s why this Liforme sale is well worth checking out. It’s reduced the price of my favorite alignment mat by 40%, bringing the price down from $185 to $111. It comes with a complimentary yoga bag, too, making it easier to carry to class.
All of Liforme's mats are constructed in the same way, with a polyurethane upper providing amazing grip and natural rubber for cushioning. The only difference is the design and size so your choice comes down to personal preference.
Black Friday yoga mats
This mat scored top marks when I tested it for our guide to the best yoga mats, thanks to its grippy texture and helpful alignment guide. These lines, printed on top of the mat, help you keep a check on your posture while holding yoga poses (asanas).
The base of the mat is made from natural rubber but it has a polyurethane upper, which provides the perfect balance of cushioning and grip. While polyurethane isn't a natural material, it's PVC-free and is predicted to break down in landfill conditions between one to five years.
The grip quality is its stand-out point as I felt strong and relaxed on my hands and feet during faster practices, never slipping out of position. I also loved the smooth rollout of the mat; I never experienced any edge curling.
To make your purchase more meaningful, Liforme will also donate to charity, plant 5 trees or save 1kg of plastic from the ocean when you buy something during the Black Friday sales. Look for the Choose Your Cause option after checkout for more details.
