As an aspiring yogi, experienced health professional, and ergonomic specialist, I created the WRISTBuddy® brand to revolutionize the function of yoga blocks. After experiencing wrist pain and discomfort within my first 3 months of using flat-sided yoga blocks, I learned that most of my classmates had similar wrist issues. I felt inspired to correct the faulty wrist biomechanics that occur when hands are placed on flat-sided blocks. WRISTBuddy® yoga blocks have a wrist-friendly, ergonomic design that helps people reduce and prevent wrist pain.
There are 3 key benefits of the WRISTBuddy® design.
It has been many years since the initial yoga blocks were introduced in the mid-70s. The rest of the world has moved on. Yet, the flat-sided, slightly bulky yoga block that doesn’t fit the hand persists. As has been done before, I headed to the garage with some old yoga blocks, cutting tools, and a drill with a burr attachment. After much time and many iterations, I had a rough version amenable to producing samples. Demo models were taken to yoga studios on the west and east coasts, and the mid-Atlantic area. Instructors and students provided wonderful and encouraging feedback. Refinements were made and the WRISTBuddy® brand launched in October 2021.
