“RAKUNERU ARCH YOGA BLOCK” is a new health-supporting item born from the vision of a yoga instructor. YOGA WORKS CO., ltd. achieved 411% of its target amount through crowdfunding, leading to its official commercialization. YOGA WORKS is a company that supports the independence of instructors and promotes social contribution through yoga. As part of this mission, this product was developed to embody the desire of instructor Kana Ito, who wanted to care for her mind and body despite a busy schedule, and to address the modern societal issue of improving sleep quality. Designed with the concept of “just surrender and feel relief,” it allows users to relax their bodies without movement. The idea came from the creator’s own experience of long working hours, which left little time for yoga or stretching. This item was developed to be easy for anyone to use, helping them align their mind and body effortlessly. The term “RAKU” holds three meanings: “楽” (comfort and relaxation), “落” (a sense of release similar to dozing off), and “絡” (connecting the mind and body). By combining elements of conventional yoga blocks and stretch poles, this innovative design features an arch on one rectangular side, making it versatile for stretching, myofascial release, yoga pose support, and balance training. Additionally, by rounding the edges and reducing weight, it introduces a new shape of yoga block that prioritizes safety. Since its founding in 2003, YOGA WORKS has been a leading company supporting Japan’s yoga industry, empowering instructors and expanding the possibilities of yoga. Through this product, the company aims to introduce a new yoga method and support the health and restful sleep of more people.
