Yoga blocks aren't just for beginners — they're for experienced yogis too.

In this video, I share with you five different reasons why and ways to use yoga blocks:

1. To bring the floor to you, especially if your hamstrings are tight – standing forward fold

2. To provide support – supported warrior three

3. To fill up space – dolphin, pincha mayurasana prep

4. To deepen your practice – seated forward fold with a block at feet

5. To work on stabilization – table
