SHOP YOGA PROPS
We are a proud affiliate of Hugger Mugger. We only recommend products we use and love 🙂
Yoga mats are a personal choice based on height, and budget. We recommend having two yoga mats. Any of these will work nicely.
Michael recommends two yoga blocks. These are standard large yoga blocks, which measure 5″ x 12″ x 6″.
Unfortunately Michael’s giant yoga blocks are no longer in production. These work nicely while we will continue to search for a new source.
Carry your yoga mat with your yoga strap! This dual-purpose strap is adjustable and can carry a yoga mat of any size. It doubles as a yoga strap to assist you in alignment and stretching. Made with 100% tightly woven cotton.
We recommend standard yoga bolster. You can also make your own bolster using a heavy blanket or pillow. See this video of how to make a bolster: https://vimeo.com/370192969
For advanced students, we recommend two sandbags. You can begin with two 10lb sandbags. For comparison, see the 15lbs sandbags.
This thick heavy blanket can also be used in place of a bolster. See this video of how to make a bolster: https://vimeo.com/370192969
We recommend this soft, absorbent yoga towel, which is perfect for slippery hands and feet or for extra cushioning.
Yoga Chair
We recommend two folding chairs for many of our classes.
Please note: Michael no longer recommends using a standard folding chair because in recent experience they have not been sturdy enough to hold his weight. Therefore are not safe for our students. We are in search of a safe more affordable option.
