Installing Yoga wall ropes with hooks can be a transformative experience.

2. Mount the Wall Hooks: Use the provided wall hook set to securely attach the hooks to the wall at the desired height and distance apart. Ensure they are firmly anchored and aligned properly.
3. Attach the Ropes: Begin by attaching the long ropes to the upper hooks and the small ropes to the lower hooks.
