BLOCKS

B. K. S. Iyengar’s stated ideal size for a yoga block is 9 x 4.5 x 3 inches/23 x12 x 8 cm, but you will find blocks that are both larger and smaller than this. Originally, yoga blocks were made of wood, but now they also come in both foam and cork.

Wooden blocks

Wooden blocks are often made of bamboo, birch, maple, pine, balsa, and poplar. Harder woods will be more durable, while softer woods will be lighter. Wooden blocks are comparatively hard and heavy (they usually weigh between 1.5 to 2.5 pounds/700g to 1.5 kg) but are very sturdy, aesthetically pleasing, and will last forever. The downsides to wooden blocks are that they are expensive, they become slippery with wet hands, they can slide around when placed on a hardwood floor, and they do not always stack very well.
