  • Yoga Wonder Wheel -- Yoga mats and blocks have been around for decades, but the Yoga Wonder Wheel™ by YOGABODY is the latest addition to any at-home practice room or yoga studio that will help you take your postures to the next level. Deep, awe-inspiring backbends are what draw most people to the Wonder Wheel initially, but backbends are just the beginning. You'll also build balance, core strength, release tension, and find ways to practice challenging poses that are otherwise inaccessible.

    The Wonder Wheel was designed for use in YOGABODY's professional yoga studios and training centers in Barcelona, Spain, so it's bigger, stronger, lighter, and backed by an unmatched warranty compared with any other wheel on the market. On top of that, it's less expensive and comes with a complete at-home DVD so you can get rolling in minutes.
