Moon Cork Yoga Block

I'm new to using yoga blocks but I've been using the matching yoga mat for over a year now and have been very happy with it. I decided to spring for this block, and am glad I did! It helps me maintain balance and feels very sturdy under my hand. Couldn't be happier! :)

I don't know much about yoga blocks, but doing yoga at home so much during the pandemic, and many YouTube videos have them, so I got two of these to follow along. They are heavier than I initially thought, which is excellent because it makes me feel more confident they will not slip or move when I am putting my weight into them. Graphics on them blocks aren't for me, but really not the point at all. They work, which is why I bought them.

When the virus closed my local yoga studio, I had to start gathering my own equipment to work out at home. As a result, I only have the plastic/foam blocks from the studio to compare to, and these are significantly more firm than that; it's especially noticeable when using them on my lower back for poses like supported fish. However, I also feel more stable when using them to balance for half moon. It took some getting used to just because the material is so different from what I was using before, but now I don't think I could go back!
