BRICKS & BLOCKS FOR YOGA

Blocks and bricks for yoga

Yoga bricks are yoga props that are needed by both beginner and experienced yogis. Like other equipment, blocks are tools that perform various functions and help in performing asanas. They are usually stable rectangular blocks of dense material. They can be wooden, plastic, cork or can be made of EVA foam. Wooden and cork bricks and blocks are primarily valued for their environmental friendliness and naturalness of the material. They are also more stable due to the fact that they are heavier. Plastic, EVA foam are lighter and more practical. It’s convenient to travel with them.

Yoga bricks are used for different purposes:

1. To develop flexibility. Yoga brick can serve as a device to facilitate the performance of some asanas for people who do not have the necessary flexibility. The block can be installed vertically as a support, rotate it on the rib, then on the base. And as a result, you can complete the exercise without using a block. In addition, the block can make the exercise not only easier, but also complicate it.
2. As an element of support. In some static asanas, a specific part of the body may require support (place a block under the head, neck, or leg). This can allow you to hold certain yoga poses more confidently and longer in time, as well as to avoid overstrain in the muscles and joints.
3. The balance. Yoga bricks can be used in balance exercises. It can be used as a weighting agent, as support in preparing for an exercise, or to shift the center of gravity, to balance easier or to complicate the posture. Blocks can be placed under the arms, legs, head, back, and serve as an extension of the arm, leg, or spine. You can use several blocks to achieve the desired results or the correct position.
