Yoga Props are powerful tools. Far from being a sign of inexperience, they offer support, enhance alignment, and invite new levels of exploration in your practice. Whether you're just beginning your yoga journey or deepening an advanced flow, props can unlock strength, flexibility, and connection in unexpected ways.
In this guide, we’ll walk through our most-loved props—what they’re used for, how to choose the right one, and the benefits they bring to your mat.
Extend, Align, Evolve: Yoga Strap
Yoga straps are an essential tool for increasing flexibility, improving alignment, and creating space in the body. They can help you ease into deeper stretches or access binds that may otherwise feel out of reach. Yoga straps are a practical tool when working to increase flexibility or opening up tighter muscles.
We offer 2 varieties of yoga strap:
AligN. Modeled after B.K.S. Iyengar’s original design, the AligN strap features a proprietary interlock buckle, wider width for added comfort, and sturdy unbleached cotton. Ideal for those seeking structure and durability.
unfoLD. A lighter, slimmer option with a square profile and sure-secure buckle. Made from 100% recycled polyester, it's perfect for on-the-go practices or those newer to props.
Choosing a Length:
Straps come in 6ft, 8ft, and 10ft options. Shorter straps are helpful for basic reach extension; longer lengths offer more versatility, especially in restorative poses or when looping is required.
Benefits of Using a Strap:
-
Deepen stretches without strain
-
Improve alignment and reduce overreaching
-
Maintain form while relaxing into poses
Pro Tip: Use a strap for stability, not force. Keep your grip gentle, and shoulders relaxed.
Rest, Restore, Reconnect: Yoga Bolster
Bolsters are often the entry point into restorative yoga (and for good reason). They provide support that encourages release, softens tension, and brings a sense of ease to the body and breath. Our bolsters are filled with a foam core and cotton padding, wrapped in our plush, absorbent eQua® microfiber cover.
Choose from three shapes:
-
Enlight Rectangular Bolster: A flat, wide surface perfect for supine poses, forward folds, and meditation. Our most versatile option.
-
Enlight Round Bolster: Traditional rounded shape supports heart openers and deep chest expansion.
-
Lean Bolster: Slim, lightweight, and ideal for targeted support or layering with other props.
Benefits of Using a Bolster:
-
Eases joint pressure and relieves tension
-
Supports deeper breathing and nervous system regulation
-
Enhances comfort during pregnancy or injury recovery
Layered Support: Yoga Blanket
Don’t underestimate the power of a yoga blanket. Its adaptability makes it one of the most versatile props in your toolkit—whether folded under hips for alignment, rolled behind knees for support, or draped over shoulders during Savasana.
We offer two options:
-
Recycled Wool Yoga Blanket: Moldable and warm, ideal for dynamic and restorative poses. Made from 75% recycled wool.
-
Recycled Cotton Yoga Blanket: Slightly larger and softer, with a luxe texture. Crafted from a durable recycled cotton blend.
Benefits of Using a Blanket:
-
Enhances comfort and alignment in seated or restorative poses
-
Adds warmth and grounding to meditation
-
Prevents tension or poor posture over time
Stability Within Reach: Yoga Blocks
Yoga blocks are one of the most versatile and essential tools in any yoga practice. They bring the ground closer, provide stability in standing poses, and support alignment as you build strength or explore depth. Whether you're just beginning or refining advanced postures, blocks offer the support you need to move with confidence and control.
We offer multiple shapes and materials to meet your needs:
Cork Yoga Block: Dense and durable with natural grip, this weighted block provides grounded support for strength-based poses and deep stretches. Made from sustainable cork with rounded edges for comfort.
Recycled Foam Yoga Block: Lightweight and easy to carry, the high-density foam construction resists compression while offering soft-touch support for seated or restorative poses. Designed with a closed-cell surface for easy cleaning.
unBLOK: Ergonomic and compact, the contoured shape supports the body’s natural curves (ideal for sacrum, knees, or neck). The curved edge also invites deeper engagement and balance work through gentle rocking.

Improve posture and alignment
-
Enhance balance and control
-
Encourage safe depth in poses
Putting Props Into Practice
Props are an extension of your practice, not a crutch, but a catalyst. They meet you where you are and offer the support to grow with intention. Whether it’s deepening a backbend, finding ease in stillness, or simply inviting more awareness into your movement, props help make the practice yours.
