Yoga Block/Brick - Cork Pack of 1 | ONEarth

A single yoga block moulded from cork, sized 9 x 5 x 3 inches. Blocks bring the floor closer in standing poses and give you something firm to sit on or press against — cork is denser and less slippery underfoot than foam.

Good to Know

Cork blocks are noticeably heavier than foam — that is what makes them stable, and also what makes them less convenient to carry. Cork colour and speckle vary between blocks. Most practitioners use two blocks, so buy a pair if you want a matched set.

FAQs

Is a block the same as a brick?

Yes — the two words describe the same prop.

How many do I need?

Two is the usual answer, so both hands can be supported at once. One is enough to start.

Why cork rather than foam?

Cork is firmer, grippier and does not dent under body weight the way foam does. Harvesting cork strips only the bark, so the tree keeps growing.

Will it slip on a wooden floor?

Less than foam, but any prop can slide on polished wood. Use it on a mat where you can.
