Mini band

Small, flat and easy to handle, a mini band is a short loop of stretchy material that fits around your legs, arms or hands. It creates gentle to strong resistance as you pull against it, depending on its thickness and stretch. You will feel steady tension through a movement, while the soft, flexible loop is simple to reposition.

You can use it for strength and movement practice at home, in a gym or while travelling. Placed above your knees or around your ankles, it adds resistance to side steps, squats, bridges and leg lifts. Around your hands or lower arms, it can support controlled shoulder movements, helping you practise moving with awareness and keeping tension even.

It suits you if you want a compact way to add resistance without bulky equipment. The loop takes almost no storage space, and you can make movements easier by choosing a lighter band or using a smaller range of movement. Start with a comfortable stretch, check that it lies flat, and stop if it pinches. Many movements can also be practised without a band.
