Gaiam EVA Foam Yoga Block — Beveled, Non-Slip Support (Deep Purple)
Product description
INCLUDED ITEM & CONSTRUCTION — One full-size yoga block made from latex-free EVA foam. The brick is built to be lightweight for easy transport while remaining firm enough to support daily practice without crumbling.
SURFACE, EDGES & DIMENSIONS — The block features a soft, textured, non-slip finish to help keep hands and feet steady. Rounded, beveled edges provide a comfortable grip and are gentle on wrists during standing balances and deep stretches. Dimensions: 9" x 6" x 4". Weight: approximately 4.6 oz.
HOW TO USE — Use the block under hands, feet or seat to improve alignment, extend reach and maintain poses longer. Suitable for hatha, vinyasa, yin and restorative sequences, as well as Pilates, meditation and physical therapy. Three usable faces offer varied heights to match flexibility and exercise needs.
CARE & DURABILITY — Spot clean with mild detergent and towel or air dry. The foam is designed to resist chipping and keep its shape through regular sessions; however, inspect after shipment for any transit damage. Ideal to buy one to start or pair two for symmetrical support.
Pros
- Lightweight and portable
- Non-slip texture with comfortable beveled edges
- Latex-free, durable EVA foam
Cons
- Four-inch height can be tall for very small feet

VerdictA dependable foam block for practitioners of all levels. It provides firm yet slightly forgiving support, grips well even on sweaty mats, and is easy to carry to class. Good for yoga, Pilates, meditation and rehabilitation exercises. A few users note occasional fit issues for very small feet or rare shipping damage, but most find it durable and practical.

Perfect for Restorative Yoga
Just what I needed for restorative classes. The texture gives a reliable grip. After weekly use for almost a year there’s been no chipping or breakdown. I’d purchase again.

Does What It Promises
Very stable. Good for heavier moves, though I mainly use it for balance drills and standing exercises.

Very Poor Quality
The material felt cheap and had a strong unpleasant smell. It didn’t seem like a genuine product and left me feeling misled.

Works Great for Stretching
Bought this for stretching and added support — it performs as expected. Feels sturdy and comfortable, lightweight and exactly what I needed.

Morgan J 4/5
Durable and Kid-Proof
Solid with a little give. My son tosses it around and it still holds up. I also like the color and sturdiness.

Arrived Damaged
One block arrived dented with surface cracks. For a prop meant to support body weight, that felt unreliable. Disappointing quality for the price.

Great for Kids' Physical Therapy
Bought this for my child's physical therapy and it has been very helpful. The grippy texture keeps movements steady while barefoot and the color is appealing to kids. Sized well for small hands, lightweight yet supportive. Cleans easily. Minor issue: the 4-inch height can be tall for some foot placements.

A Reliable Companion for Yoga & Meditation
This EVA block added useful support to my practice. The latex-free foam is light to carry and the textured surface offers secure footing on a sweaty mat. It helps extend reach and supports seated meditation and gentle stretches. Durable and kind to wrists.
