The Trapezoid Cork Yoga Wedge by My Beautiful Buddha is a biomechanically designed support tool developed to improve joint alignment and comfort across a wide range of yoga, mobility, and rehabilitation exercises. Its fixed trapezoid incline redistributes load through the wrists, ankles, and knees, assisting practitioners in maintaining optimal joint angles during both static and transitional postures.
When placed beneath the hands in Plank, Chaturanga, or Downward-Facing Dog, the wedge reduces wrist dorsiflexion by aligning the forearm and palm along a gentler plane of support. Positioned under the heels during Malasana (deep squat), Virasana (hero’s pose), or low lunge variations, it moderates ankle dorsiflexion and helps maintain knee tracking without overextension. Used beneath the sit bones in Seated Forward Fold or other long-hold positions, it facilitates neutral pelvic tilt and supports an elongated spinal line.
A pair of wedges provides symmetrical elevation for bilateral work such as Crow Pose, Handstand preparation, or Forearm Plank, where consistent wrist angle and load distribution are key. A single wedge is ideal for targeted support, one-sided mobility training, or injury-specific rehabilitation. Many practitioners and instructors also incorporate wedges into corrective movement and physiotherapy routines to assist gradual strengthening and controlled joint adaptation.
Constructed from 100% natural cork, the wedge offers high compressive strength with a slight elastic yield under pressure. The micro-textured surface maintains grip under dry or humid conditions without synthetic coatings or adhesives. Cork’s closed-cell composition resists moisture absorption, is naturally antimicrobial, and retains its geometric integrity through repeated use. Precision-cut edges ensure uniform incline and secure placement on any flat surface.
Lightweight and portable, each wedge can be repositioned easily during sequences or transported between home, studio, and outdoor environments. Its minimal form supports technical precision without visual distraction. Available individually or as a matched pair, it integrates seamlessly into both personal and professional practice setups.
Maintenance is straightforward: wipe with a slightly damp cloth and air dry; avoid soaking or prolonged direct sunlight. The wedge is designed for durable, long-term performance while maintaining both form and function.
This tool is precise, stable, and engineered for practitioners who value anatomical integrity, controlled movement, and alignment-focused training.
