Well made, fun yoga tool
These yoga dice are great. They are about the size of a kids smaller wooden alphabet/building block, 1 1/4ā. They are a nice smooth wood with rounded edges and the images are in blue.There are 7 dice. Each die has 5 poses and a chakra, for a total of 35 poses and 7 chakras. Each die represents a different category of poses- sun salutation, standing, balancing, seated, forward bend, & core.The book shows the pose, the name ( not Sanskrit) and how to do the pose. For the chakras, it shows the chakra symbol, name, info, on that chakra, benefit and suggested poses for balancing that chakra. I personally find the chakra sides to be a bit annoying. I donāt have the chakras memorized and in order to use the chakra as a pose I have to stop and look in the book for the suggested pose (which I also donāt have memorized). I would rather have had 7 more poses. But, in time I will memorize the chakra poses.Also, itās funny, but I had trouble in the beginning with the seated wide-legged forward fold picture. I was following the floor line as in the other dice and was looking at it upside down. I couldnāt for the life of me figure out what pose it was. Lol I included a pic.To do a flow, I roll the dice, put poses in order from standing to seated & re roll chakras. I sometimes use the chakra as a āwildā pose and add on to a pose that was rolled, such as happy baby. I would do a figure 4 after. Then re roll dice for 3 or 4 more flows.They are easily seen while standing except in the sun ( they have a sheen to them and the sun bounces off a bit making it a bit hard to see from a standing position).The cardboard container they store in is pretty sturdy. All in all, they really are a fun and useful yoga tool. Also great for group yoga.

Cool Yoga Dice !
Fun addition to yoga class ideas. Quality wooden dice and a little book came in a portable container. The book describes each illustration on the die.The book also explains the different chakras assigned to each die. Great also for taking on vacation, along with an outing with friends. As an Elementary school teacher, I will bring these along to school and use them with my students.So many ways to be creative. The possibilities are endless and such a great price point, I ordered two!

Useful, with a caveat.
I enjoy these dice. They've got good poses, they're useful, they add variety and spontaneity, and keep things fresh that way. If you want to have things be a little bit different, I'd recommend them.However. If you want to know what each of the poses mean, you have to look them up in the booklet, and neither the dice, nor the booklet are numbered. I'd also ordered the Fitness Dice, which had a numbering system that I thought was great and decided to to one myself.I used a marker and wrote page numbers for each pose on each page of the booklet, ignoring the chakra pages. I wrote the corresponding page number onto the dice, matching the poses. For the chakra faces on the dice, I wrote out the page numbers of the poses suggested on the matching chakra page.Once that was done, using the dice was so much simpler and quicker. I don't know why they numbered the Fitness Dice but not the Yoga Dice, but that lost them a star because of how annoying it was getting started before I hunted down a decent marker.Four stars.

Still love them after 2 years
I've had these for two years now and use them all the time, so I decided I should finally write a review! I find these so awesome. I like to roll, see what I get, and then arrange them into a short flow routine of my choosing. Lots of poses, lots of variety, easy to take outside for outdoor workouts. I love them. Occasionally I use them with my kids and it's super fun for family yoga, too.

Buy Them!
I was introduced to these by a friend. Initially I thought they were more of a novelty item but after playing around with them I realized that each die actually sticks to a chakra/similar pose... so you're actually able to build your whole practice around them. These have helped me SO much with sequencing. I've taken online yoga instructor classes but I've always struggled with flow. My mind literaly goes blank š Now I'm able to roll these, put them in whatever order makes sense, then build off of them.Highly recommend if you feel stuck with creating your own flow

Awesome!
I originally bought these dice to use in case our yoga instructor did not show because of a last minute emergency. However, the owner of Yoga, Core and More in Arnold, MO, thought we should use them to decide the theme for our next class. We have someone close her eyes and pick a dice. Then the yoga teacher uses that dice as the theme for the next class. We have been having loads of fun and not complaining so much about pose choices. Dice are large and there is an instruction book.

Fun, useful and good quality.
It was a Christmas gift for someone who does a daily Yoga routine. She loved these because of the variety of the poses and the unpredictability of them made her practice fun.
