Manduka Cork Block

I've only used my block a couple times, but it seems great so far! Sturdy and does the job.

I love using blocks during my practice, but I've always used the inexpensive kinds that are a little too soft for certain poses/uses. The Manduka Cork Blocks provide stability and an excellent way to enhance or assist certain postures. I really like to use these for inversions because they help you engage your shoulder girdle allowing you to really push and ground your arms into the mat.

I got this as a gift for my mom who is a beginning yoga. Blocks are great for people who are new to yoga or who are less flexible. The block lets you rest your hand when you can't reach the ground and is also a great balancing aid. If you want to step up your practice, put it between your legs and test your strength! Mainly got this for my mom to balance when reaching for the floor. I love the high quality cork material more so than the rubber just simply over quality purposes and a nice touch.

A must have for anyone in search of a stable block for yoga or meditation. These cork blocks have a nice texture which helps even the sweatiest palms find grip.

After years of a cheap foam block, I upgraded to this prop. The cork makes for an excellent grip and the pure weight of this chunk adds so much more stability when I need it most.

The cork is a little more comfortable, especially when I use it for meditation. You can't go wrong here!! Very good quality.

Excellent piece of equipment for yoga, basically if you need a cork block by default you go with manduka

This block is heavier than most. It is very sturdy and stable for home practice. I like the grip of the cork. It feels very secure.

I like this yoga block over others I've tried because it's heavy and feels much more sturdy. I am fairly new to yoga so it's nice to know that it's not going anywhere plus the texture of the cork is preferable in my opinion to the more foam feeling ones. I recommend it.

Having recently started doing yoga as a way to primarily improve my flexibility and balance for sports such as Nordic skiing, I quickly found the need for a block to help me get into some of the poses that challenge my, admittedly quite poor, flexibility. This block is great - nice and solid, feels very secure and does a great job supporting me.

-its 2lbs so its got some weight, which is great for stability, and using it for your bum, also allows you to really use all sides and positions of the rectangle
-non toxic, sustainable material, doesn't smell bad
