Yoga blocks

Yoga blocks are one of the most popular props among beginner and advanced yoga practitioners. They are about 10 inches long, three to four inches high and about six inches wide. The dimensions are important because the yoga blocks are used during stretches and it's important that the props have consistent length.

Yoga blocks can be made from different materials. This includes foam, wood, cork and even bamboo. Because foam is the most inexpensive it is most commonly seen in yoga studios.

If you want to try a yoga blocks before you buy them, look around to see if you have any supplies around the house that are the approximate dimensions of retail yoga blocks. Early yoga practitioners actually used bricks or pieces of wood. Another alternative is to simply shop from a store that allows exchanges.
