Cork Blocks are an ideal prop for yoga and other bodywork practice. The blocks are made from natural cork remnants left over from manufacturing processes where cork is used such as in making cork boards, flooring, and wine bottle corks. Since cork comes from the bark of a tree and harvesting does not involve cutting the tree down, it is truly a renewable resource. At 1 1/2 pounds, the cork blocks are also lighter and less expensive than wooden blocks. The material is also a natural resource where foam blocks are a petroleum product. The cork blocks offer a superior non-slip surface. It is slightly porous and textured in a way that keeps sweaty hands from slipping. The rubbery surface of cork also keeps it from slipping on hardwood floors. The blocks are made from renewable cork - it does not harm the tree to harvest the cork bark and there are no harmful chemicals used in the production of the block, unlike the colored foam blocks often seen elsewhere. Cork is an environmentally sustainable product.
