About the event
Yoga blocks are dense rectangular props used to make yoga poses more accessible or challenging. They can be used to support the body, improve alignment, and enhance muscle engagement during a yoga practice. Blocks can be used to create more space in a pose by allowing you to rest your hands or other body parts on them. They can be used to create resistance or provide support for the back, hips, and head, allowing you to relax more deeply into a pose and improve alignment. Blocks can be used to stabilize poses and improve balance, especially in standing or balancing poses. They can also help prevent injury by providing support and preventing misalignment in certain poses.
