what do people do to carry/store yoga blocks

hi , does it make sense to buy a yoga bag that you can put your mat,strip,and 2 or more yoga blocks? Do people take their blocks to class? finally should I just store them in a plastic bag just to save money?

Well I rarely take blocks to class. Rather I choose to go to a studio that has a complement of yoga props. It's part and parcel of my studio selection process.

On the rare occasion I have taken a block I toss it in my yoga bag. I've got a bag with two clasp straps underneath and I secure my mat there. The bag has a top zipper and a shoulder strap. I put the block in the zippered compartment, when there is room.

I would not store any of my yoga stuff in plastic bags. I think it doesn't breathe and theres a chance for things to get musty. I stack my blocks, mats, and blankets with a couple bolsters in one section of my flat. And there they stay.

so basicly people leave their blocks at home base on yoga class provide them is that correct. I have got hooked in yoga by just trying it out at la fitness club. They only provide a hard mat thing and a yoga mat and thats it. I never see anybody bring a yoga block. Just a strip and a mat and a yoga bag. So I do have my yoga blocks just lying on a box is this okay. I like it to be more pro by having them in a yoga bag or is that dumb. So should I get a wai lani deluxe yoga bag or the strip that holds the mat in the roll form and then you carry it. Can you suggest a yoga dvd that is full 60 minutes and is loaded with as many pose as possiable. I do like the rodney yee dvds. I have that 4 set that you can buy at costco.
