Abstract:
An apparatus for stretching and yoga and method of use for the same. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a cord, one or more protuberances along the length of the cord, a loop at the first end of the cord, and an end piece at the second end of the cord. In another embodiment, the apparatus includes a loop at the first end of the cord and a loop at the second end of the cord. The apparatus allows a practitioner to extend her reach, e.g., behind her back, over her head, or beyond her legs. The protuberances allow the practitioner to make certain adjustments before or during the yoga or exercise. After some practice, the practitioner may be able to shift from using one protuberance to using the next protuberance. By using the next protuberance, the practitioner will either stretch further or receive less assistance, depending on the exercise being performed. The apparatus may be used in performing yoga, exercise, or physical therapy, as well as in the transportation or storage of a yoga or exercise mat.
