How to use a yoga foam wedge
As part of the company's continued commitment to "greening" its products, Hugger Mugger remakes its popular yoga wedge in sustainable cork. The wedge is designed to support your yoga practice from your heels to your hands, making it particular suitable to iyengar, anusara, and restorative yoga. The wedge fits comfortably under your heels for grounding in dog pose or squatting positions, under your hands to ease pressure on your wrists in dog pose, or under your hips for seated poses. Sturdy and stable, the wedge is also light enough to carry just about anywhere.
About Hugger Mugger
Sara Chambers, founder of Hugger-Mugger, was an accomplished woodworker when she came to yoga. Its tremendous impact on her health made yoga a way of life for Sara. She began developing wooden and fabric tools to help with her practice. Local teachers and students asked Sara to make things for them, and word spread. Sara continued to develop products for fellow yogis, including the company’s namesake, Hugger-Muggers, the now-famous unisex yoga shorts with a legband around the thighs to cover what’s underneath. Since the word hugger-mugger means to conceal, the catchy name Hugger-Mugger fit.
Among Hugger-Mugger's most noted designs is the Tapas Sticky Mat, which has become the yoga practice essential. Predecessor mats were not designed specifically for yoga and would deteriorate quickly with us. The Tapas Sticky Mat was the first long-term performance yoga mat and continues to set the standards for the industry.
For more than 20 years, Hugger-Mugger has been known as an innovator of technically excellent yoga products serving yoga teachers and students throughout the world. Hugger-Mugger is committed to developing products of performance, style, and comfort. The company strongly believes in the benefits of the practices of yoga and meditation.
