Amazon.com Product Description
Refine your yoga routine when performing Iyengar, Anusara, Ashtanga, restorative, or power yoga with this Hugger Mugger cork yoga block. Made of fast-growing, renewable cork, the block is stable, long lasting, and comfortable, making it a great choice for supported backbends and select standing and sitting poses. Cork harvesting is a sustainable process that has remained virtually unchanged for 3,000 years. Made from the bark of long-lived cork oak trees, cork is stripped from the trees every decade, a process that actually maintains the health of the trees and their surrounding ecosystem. Cork is extremely durable yet slightly porous, giving it the perfect balance for use in yoga blocks. Plus, cork's natural texture provides traction, while the rounded edges create a comfortable surface for supported poses. And because cork is a completely natural fiber, there's no off-gassing as there would be with chemically treated products. A favorite of eco-minded consumers, the Hugger Mugger block measures 9 by 5.5 by 3.5 inches (W x H x D). About Hugger Mugger

My favorite blocks August 23, 2007

These blocks are great for yoga. The cork is my favorite material - firm and solid like wood, but without hard edges and not slippery on a wood floor, like the best attributes of a foam block. The only drawback is that they are heavy; foam blocks are better if you're traveling with them and need to carry your bags.

I am very happy with my cork block. It is a nice size and is heavy enough that it doesn't tip as easily when I use it to steady a pose.
excellent block for yoga March 22, 2009

This is my second Hugger Mugger Cork Yoga block. I use them for restorative poses or to help me with side angle pose, etc. I use two of these blocks for down-ward facing dog when my shoulder injuries flare up. They are high quality and the company has a history of making good products and being respectful of the enviornment and of trying to maintain fair-wage practices, in case this influences your opinions. I highly recommend them.

I recently bought 14 of these blocks for my students to use. The response has been universally positive, so far. Everyone likes the heft of the blocks. They don't fall over when you need them to remain in place. Highly recommended!
