Yoga Wheel by iExhale Yoga 13" x 5" inches - Purple, Green, or Gray - Dharma Yoga Roller with Printed Yoga Wheel Pose Guide on Box

First impressions weren't great - I bought the blue but was sent the purple, and one side of the wheel was a bit scuffed up (see photo), but nothing bad enough to warrant a return. A week in, however, and I'm pretty impressed with this thing.I'm not much for yoga props but was looking for something that would improve my flexibility bending backwards. I noticed that I was starting to dread my once-a-week wheel pose and wanted an easier, passive way to stretch my back - especially after work when I don't particularly feel like warming up to wheel. The iExhale yoga wheel is perfect for this. I can just lean back against it and roll out my back or flop backwards over it and stay there for a while. If I'm feeling ambitious, I work on pigeon pose - I can't quite get my elbows down yet, but I'm not sure whether the wheel's just a bit big for me (I'm only 5'2) or my back isn't flexible enough yet. The wheel arrived on Wednesday, and by my Saturday yoga class, my wheel pose was feeling a lot easier and deeper than it had in years. Not bad for half a week of monkeying around for a few minutes at a time on it! I'm pretty sure I sold my teacher and another student on the merits of the yoga wheel, too.I don't know how the iExhale wheel compares to more expensive ones, but it is plenty sturdy for me. Unlike the big inflatable balls, there's not much give to the wheel, so you'll actually get a nice stretch out of it. I think this is going to turn out to be the prop - other than my mat - that I use most often.

Make sure the rubber part is clean and in tact. If it's dirty with something like cat hair, it may slip...and your head will be the only thing stopping you. Any way, I got in a motorcycle accident 3 years ago, had some muscle issues between my blades causing a "tech neck" type situation. After 3 uses that went away, and I use it several times a week. My kid looks at me weird, but it feels so good.Good luck!

This product is key. As a beginner I have had many difficulties hitting a variety of poses due to flexibility. The yoga wheel has helped me push those boundaries and hit poses I never thought I would be able to do. This is a great durable product helping me stretch my 200 plus pound body to new limits. The box has some great helpful poses and tips that I have been practicing as well. Both my fellow yogis and me enjoy using this wheel and would highly recommend to anyone trying to push themselves to new poses.

LOVE this! I use it daily to stretch out and adjust my back. Once in the morning and once before bed. I plan on using it in my yoga routines, but haven’t ventured that far into it. I totally recommend!I’m a larger girl and it is super sturdy, so I don’t worry about it breaking.

A must have for any yogi beginner to advanced looking to improve flexibility in the spine. This yoga prop is excellent to take your back bends to the next level. It has a sturdy design and looks great in a home studio. As with any new pose or practice, expect some growing pains. I found success using the wheel in my personal practice starting with once a week and slowly progressing to 2-3 times a week. It can also be used for more advanced yogis to challenge balance or bring a new spin on traditional yoga poses.The product came in sturdy box to store, with some very helpful exercises on the outside of the packaging. The perfect gift for that yogi in your life that has everything! Yoga Wheel by iExhale Yoga 13" x 5" inches - Purple, Green, or Gray - Dharma Yoga Roller with Printed Yoga Wheel Pose Guide on Box

I was expecting it to be slightly flexible but it was quite firm in terms of the material of this wheel. Regardless, it gets the job done when it comes to my back!

As a first time yoga wheel buyer, I must admit I was a little skeptical as to how much a wheel could actually contribute to my practice, but I’m a total wheel believer now. This is a perfect option if you’re hoping to start incorporating those more challenging poses and just need that little extra support and balance to attain them. I love how this wheel is sturdy enough but moves with you into each new pose to really help you get the most out of every stretch and movement. Also, I do suffer from pretty bad back pain and this wheel is awesome at helping me alleviate tension and roll out some stiff muscles after after a workout or whenever I need it. Great purchase I’d highly recommend!

As a Yoga teacher I need quality equipment to use and practice with as well as share and recommend and this product is absolutely great! This helps with so many asanas. Handstand to back bends this is a great yoga tool.
