Yoga Wheels

Buying a Yoga Wheel? Here's what to look for

Anti-slip Layer

The key feature of the yoga wheel is the anti-slip layer. Without this anti-slip layer, there is little grip for proper yoga poses. Lack of grip can cause you to slip during a yoga practice, which can lead to injury. We always want to prevent this, which is why Matchu Sports has developed the perfect anti-slip layer on this yoga wheel to make your yoga exercises as effective and comfortable as possible. It provides grip for both hands and feet. Try stretching your glutes. Do this by bending your knees and placing your hands on the wheel in front of you. Suddenly, you have a lot of grip and can keep the wheel stable. The anti-slip layer in this exercise is necessary for good stability in your shoulder blades.

Material

Our yoga wheel is made of the same soft material as a yoga mat. The soft top layer over a layer of plastic provides a soft, cushioning, and firm feel. This gives you a soft cushioning surface that is beneficial for your muscles. The cushion also gives your body a relaxed feeling. Thanks to the sturdy ABS, the chance of the wheel tearing or breaking is almost impossible. The maximum load capacity of the wheel is 150 kilograms, ensuring that you can always practice with a super safe feeling. If the wheel gets dirty from sweat or outdoor yoga exercises, you may want to clean it. This is also not a problem. Wash the top layer with a dishcloth and lukewarm water, and the wheel will be as good as new. So, with good grip, sturdy ABS, and a soft top layer, you can perform all your exercises well and relaxed. The combination of robust materials, comfort, and the vast number of possibilities the wheel offers make it an indispensable yoga tool.

Design

The design is unique, with a round shape and a diameter of 33cm and a width surface of 13 cm. It is perfect for performing all exercises. The wheel fits perfectly in the curve of your back and is long enough to place your hands or feet flat on the wheel during a support exercise. With good stability combined with the anti-slip feature, the wheel stays in place. You can also choose between the colors pink and art. The difference between the two yoga wheels is that the art yoga wheel has a truly unique design that exudes tranquility but also activity. The pink yoga wheel is more calm and sleek in color. The choice of color mainly depends on your preference in your yoga training and environment; if you prefer a calmer design, you choose pink.

Use

Our yoga wheel can be used in various ways. There are many exercises you can perform because the yoga wheel is beautifully aligned behind your back. It can be used for many different yoga exercises such as the wheel pose, child's pose, upward facing two-foot staff pose, easy pose, and the mermaid pose. The yoga wheel is essential in your development as a yogi. The wheel pose is a great example: stand upright and place the wheel behind you, then slowly lean your body backward over the wheel and place your hands flat on the ground. Touching the ground is already a significant achievement, but in this exercise, the yoga wheel provides that extra support that helps you reach your next level. Next, place your right leg at a 90-degree angle and lean on the wheel with it. What was a simple bridge pose now turns into a wheel pose where you rely on the support of the yoga wheel. This is a great example of reaching a next-level yoga position with the help of the yoga wheel. You can also use a yoga block for these exercises.
