For those of you joining me for the online classes, especially if you are new to yoga, you’ll notice that I use yoga props in my class. When doing classes at home, especially if you are not sure if you want to invest in your own props, here are a few prop substitute ideas. Keep in mind these are just suggestions; feel free to use something different and get creative with whatever you have around your home!
Prop Substitutes:
Yoga Blocks
- A few books stacked on top of one another (non-slippery covers)
- A shoe box or other similarly sized Tupperware, filled with something so it doesn’t collapse easily
- A cut piece of wood
- A chair/step-stool
Straps
- A scarf
- A tie
- A belt
- A robe belt
- A piece of rope
- A jump rope
Bolsters
- Towels or blankets rolled or folded
- Narrow pillows or cushions
- A rolled yoga mat
