Providing quality wooden yoga props in the Iyengar tradition since 1995.

Pine Tree Yoga Props LLC was selected to provide props for the 2010 Iyengar Teachers' convention held in Portland, OR.

With six months of non-stop prop building leading up to the convention and a similar workload following, we've decided to take a break from prop building for the month of September and part of October. We will continue respond to queries, so please don't hesitate to contact us with questions or to place orders to be filled at a later date.

All of the props are made of Red Alder (Alnus rubra), a species of hardwood native to the Northwest coastal region. Joints are glued and screwed with coated deck screws which are countersunk and covered with walnut plugs. We use two coats of a water-based polyurethane floor varnish that is non-toxic and very tough. Please note: this finish is for indoor use only. Nearly every piece of each prop is at least one full inch thick. This thickness of wood and the clean, simple design of these props assures many years of faithful service in the studio or home. And of course, all props are as nearly as possible faithful to the dimensions approved by Mr. Iyengar.

Pine Tree Yoga Props LLC serves teachers, studios, and advanced practitioners of yoga in the Iyengar tradition. We assume that, if a person buys one of our props, the buyer is already well educated in its use.

I can never thank you enough for helping me, and countless others you don't know, to enjoy the benefits of yoga, enhanced by the quality and beauty of your work. I acknowledge and appreciate you.
