Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Based on the original yoga strap first developed in Pune, India, by yoga master B.K.S. Iyengar, Manduka's eco-friendly version is a must for serious yoga enthusiasts. Straps are ideal for yoga students of all levels, as they help practitioners deepen certain stretches and hold poses for longer periods of time. Beginners will find them useful for performing hamstring stretches--a must for improving flexibility--while more advanced students can use the straps to step into and hold more challenging poses. The strap is made of 100-percent natural cotton, with a strong, user-friendly buckle that holds the strap securely in place during use. The strap is available in 8- and 10-foot versions.

Customer Reviews

• I previously owned several yoga straps, all of which were 6' or less. I have found that having the 8' Manduka provides greater versatility, particularly with performing certain restorative postures such as bound supta baddha konasana. Furthermore, my favorite old strap was one made by Gaiam, and although that strap was thick, the Manduka is even thicker and appears to be of better quality. Similarly, the metal clasp on this strap is generally preferred by yoga teachers, as unlike plastic, it is not prone to breakage (which is why you rarely see straps with plastic clasps in yoga studios). Overall, this strap is an excellent addition to my home prop practice collection.

• My Yoga Instructor likes this strap as much as I do. I like the feel and texture of this strap. This is by far the best yoga strap I have purchased.

• Wow! I'm very impressed with the quality of this one. I don't know how I hesitated so much in getting it (...the debate of brands get stucked in my head). I'm not married to any brand for yoga props. My mat is Gaiam, blocks are Hugger Mugger and now, a Manduka yoga strap. But this one: It is a REALLY good yoga strap! Actually, the best one I ever seen. I also own a Gaiam one, 6ft but this one is definitely far superior. Very sturdy with nice soft feel to it. Definitely thicker that Gaiam's. The metal buckle is super safe & strong but easy to handle. It's just how a yoga strap should be! Plus, the red color is beautiful. Top quality. Worth every penny!
