Yoga Block - Fine-Grain Cork Block, Yoga Equipment, Home Gym Accessory, Pilates Tool, Lightweight for Travel, Extra Firm Workout Accessory with Comfortable Edges

Excellent cork blocks and fortunately my cat does NOT love to sink her teeth into them like she does with the foam blocks. These should last a very long time. Extra firm and supportive, although sometimes a little too firm for things like lizard, resting forearms on the blocks, or under the lower back for legs up the wall. For softer positions that need support, I might switch to foam blocks but for stronger poses like flying half moon or even standing L or standing splits with blocks, it's nice to have a more solid support block.

Dense and heavier than you think. Love the size. I will probably buy another one. I always think Manduka is a little pricey but their quality does come through. It doesn't smell at all. Very stable.

Arrived perfectly! I trust manduka for my yoga needs, so it’s my go to. I use this cork set at home, and have a manduka foam set as well. I use all. So having the two, here are my pros and cons when choosing: for hot yoga, or heavy sweaters, the brick is less slippery. For balance, the brick is heavier feels very stable. If you plan to lean on it, the foam is a little softer. Also the foam is lighter for travel. I’m comparing blacks of identical dimensions. Happy with both sets for different needs.

I have been using these blocks for a year now, twice a week yoga class. They look nice, sturdy, bit heavier than normal block. I was concerned about the material shedding or breaking since it looks like cork, but it didn't. I love them so far.

This yoga block has really transformed my practice. I used cheap compressed foam blocks for years and didn’t think a heavier cork block would make any difference. Then I attended a yoga class at a new location and they had several Manduka cork blocks mixed in amongst the usual foam blocks. I decided to try one out for the heck of it. I was absolutely floored at the difference the block made in my stability during balance poses. As counterintuitive as it sounds, it actually allowed me to be less reliant on my arms for the additional balance as I didn’t have to grip as hard to keep the block from moving and when I did need the extra support it was firmly yet comfortably there. From that day on, I tried to get to class early enough to grab one of the Manduka blocks. A few months later I came late and had to use a foam block. I hated it so much I went onto amazon and bought my own Manduka block as soon as I returned home. These blocks will likely outlast all of my other yoga accessories. They are extremely high quality and feel so much nicer on your hands than some of the other cork blocks I’ve felt, which seem to have a chunkier, harsher texture. You really do get what you pay for and these blocks are 110% worth the extra cost.

I purchased this block along with my BlackMatPRO yoga mat and I'm glad I did. What got me into buying Manduka was doing Yoga X from P90X. I was using the Harbinger mat before but, it kept moving around when doing the warrior postures and when I sweat I would slip all over the place. Both Manduka mat and block helped me improve my yoga postures because they allowed me to be more sturdy and not slip when I sweat a little. The block in particular was very useful, there's a move called warrior 3 and it's the hardest balance posture in my opinion and the cork block really helped in keeping my balance up until I could ween myself off it. The reason I gave it a 4 star and not a 5 is because of the material, while cork feels very sturdy and nice to touch it shaves off little flakes when using it. This is not a deal breaker but, it's something to consider as you will have clean off your mat a bit. So if your a big Yoga person or your doing P90X(Tony Horton uses Manduka for his Yoga) and you need a little extra help in the balance department or you need it for more advance stretch moves I highly recommend this block along with the BlackMatPRO.

This is my first set of Manduka blocks and I am so impressed. It is sturdy and well made. I’ve used them a couple times already. It looks like ithry will last I have used another brand previously and it was made of a super light foam material that got scratched and dented easily. I am So happy with my purchase and I would definitely recommend for others to purchase.

Love these yoga blocks. They are much more stable and environmentally sound than the lightweight plasticky ones at my classes. They are heavy to carry around in my bag, so I primarily use them at home.

Büyük ağır ve dengeli. Asla çökme esneme vs yapmıyor. Tek tek kutusunda geldi. Ufak tefek biriyim küçüğünü de belki alabilirmişim ama sevdim. Fiyatı ben aldıktan sonra yükseldi fiyatı takip ederek alın.

Llevo años practicando yoga y por fin me decidí por este prop el material y tamaño perfecto.

Really good stable block with a feels much better than the foam blocks that I used to use. Doesn't slip or topple easily.

Excelente block de Yoga, los recomiendo.

Rispondente alle aspettative. Manduka è una garanzia. Molto comodo per le dimensioni maggiori dei normali mattoncini
