Hugger Mugger Cork Yoga Block - Great for Sweaty Hands
Category: manduka yoga block
The Hugger Mugger cork yoga block, made of sustainable and fast-growing cork material, is a versatile and eco-friendly choice for your yoga practice. Its exceptional durability, stability, and solid construction make it an excellent companion for a wide range of yoga styles, from Iyengar and Ashtanga to restorative and power yoga.
The natural texture of the cork provides excellent traction, while the rounded corners and edges offer comfort and support during your poses. This yoga block is an ideal tool for performing supported backbends, standing, and sitting poses, helping you refine your yoga routine and enhance your overall experience.
The cork used in this block is harvested through a sustainable process that has remained virtually unchanged for over 3,000 years. Extracted from the bark of long-lived cork oak trees, the cork is stripped from the trees every decade, a process that actually maintains the health of the trees and the surrounding ecosystem.
Compared to the coarse-grain cork typically used in other yoga blocks, the Hugger Mugger block is lighter and features a easy-to-grip, non-slip surface. Its comfortably contoured edges and sturdy construction provide a comfortable surface for supported poses, while the natural porosity of the cork offers the perfect balance for use in yoga blocks.
Unlike chemically treated products, the Hugger Mugger cork yoga block is a completely natural fiber, which means there is no off-gassing or harmful emissions. This makes it a preferred choice among eco-conscious consumers who value sustainable and environmentally friendly products.
Hugger Mugger, a company known for its innovation in technically advanced yoga equipment, has been serving yoga teachers and students worldwide for over 20 years. Founded by Sara Chambers, an accomplished woodworker and yoga enthusiast, the company's journey began when Sara started developing wooden and fabric tools to enhance her own practice.
Over time, Hugger Mugger expanded its product offerings, including the now-famous unisex yoga shorts with a leg band around the thighs, which perfectly embodies the company's name, as "hugger mugger" means to conceal. The company has also gained renown for its Tapas sticky mat, a pioneering long-term performance yoga mat that has become an industry trendsetter.
Headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, Hugger Mugger continues to innovate and create high-quality yoga products that cater to the needs of yoga practitioners around the world. The Hugger Mugger cork yoga block is a testament to the company's commitment to providing sustainable and technically advanced solutions for the yoga community.
