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!Customer Review: It's a giant block of cork!

It's a dense piece of cork that you use for yoga. It does exactly what it needs to, was a fair price, and not made out of some strange chemical you have never heard of. I don't really know what else you can say about it.Customer Review: yoga block

I like the Hugger Mugger cork yoga block better than other blocks I have used. The foam blocks are too soft and the depth is too shallow, and the wood blocks are too hard; but the cork block is the perfect weight and size.Customer Review: Simple but effective

This block is great - -just the right size and the material is wonderful. I do travel with it, and I don't find it to be cumbersome at all. The block helps to keep me aligned and remind the body of proper positioning.
