Our ready-to-fill Yoga Sandbags offer a high quality cotton exterior cover with handles. The interior lining is easy to fill to your desired weight with any dry item such as sand, grains, beans, corn or rice. The zippered interior lining prevents leakage. The sandbag can hold up to 10 pounds of weight. The exterior cotton cover is durable and machine washable. This outer cover also offers a zipper to keep the interior lining and weight in place. The handle allows for easy carrying, positioning and for shoulder/arm stretches.

Sandbags can be used in all types of yoga, but especially in Anusara, Iyengar, and Restorative poses.

There are several ways to use a sandbag. Some examples of uses:

• Adds weight for an extra stretch - such as when you place it on your thighs in Virasana (Hero's Pose) or Baddhakonasana (Bound Angle Posture).
• Bring awareness to a part of your body - such as when you place it in on your hip during Supta Padangusthasana (Reclining Big Toe Posture) to help keep your hips flat and level, or placing a sandbag on your stomach during Pranayama (breathing) to bring awareness to the stomach muscles.
• Use as a weight by holding behind your back to stretch your shoulders, chest, and arm muscles.

Studios and fitness centers can utilize the different colors by filling each color to a different weight. This makes it easy for customers to choose their desired weight by choosing a color-coded sandbag.
