Gaiam Yoga Block and Strap Combo

Gaiam Yoga Block and Strap Combo Improve your yoga performance with this pair of must-have yoga tools. The combo pack starts with a brick that helps you “reach the floor” in key poses and maintain proper alignment, helping you achieve better stability and support. The natural-cotton, 6-foot yoga strap, meanwhile, lets you deepen the stretch without strain. In addition, the D-ring cinch buckle tightens the strap securely while still allowing for quick and easy release. The end result of both tools is a deeper, more flexible yoga session that makes the most of your stretches. The brick measures 5-1/4 by 3 by 9 inches (W x H x D) while the strap is machine-washable for easy cleaning.
