Regardless of the occasion or the recipient, you can’t go wrong with any of the martial arts gifts at Greatmats. 

Home BJJ Mats for Gifts

Home BJJ Mats for Gifts
The 1.5 inch thick Home BJJ Mats are designed specifically for those practicing Judo, Jiu Jitsu and MMA. This high quality mat system will work for a number of disciplines. The mats provide cushioning for the comfort and safety of the athlete, but they are also firm enough to prevent sinking into the mats. 

They will protect from burns and scrapes, but they aren’t too slick or slippery, either. These mats are waterproof, reversible, and have many potential uses. They are puzzle mats, so they are quick and easy to install on a solid surface. No extra padding or adhesive are needed, as the mats alone lock together strongly and provide a superior level of safety. They can be easily cleaned with a damp mop or vacuum and are very durable and long-lasting. 

Home Sport & Play Mats for Martial Arts

If you’re looking for martial arts gifts for those practicing taekwondo, hapkido, karate, muay thai or krav maga, these mats offer durability and versatility needed for each of those disciplines. The thick mats accommodate athletic shoes and are made of roughly ¾-inch thick EVA foam. 
This provides a flexible consistency similar to a soft rubber while providing more cushion, and it works well in nearly any setting or environment. They are waterproof, stain resistant and scuff resistant and have anti-fatigue properties, taking pressure off of your athlete’s joints. 
This allows for longer and harder training time. These mats absorb shock extremely well and have a firmness that allows for quick and easy movement. They are also reversible and feature a tough thatch surface texture that can be vacuumed or damp mopped with household cleaners as needed. This mat system is fast and easy to install, plus it will last for years.

These mats are available in numerous colors and are 5x10 feet in size. They are designed to last for years of training and feature a 1 year warranty against defects. Like other mats, these can be easily cleaned with common household floor cleaners and a damp mop.
