Student Testimonials
The teachers
I wish more classes offered at the Walnut Creek studio .
Katie’s class is excellent—great flow and workout. Appreciate it!
Always a great workout and instructors are friendly and very experienced!!
The place is well-organized, clean, and easy to find. I had the pleasure of taking Kassandra's class and really appreciated how, towards the end, she came over to each of us and gave a few minutes of massage on our necks, shoulders, and arms. It was like the icing on the cake after an intense yoga workout. Thank you 🙏🏽 🧘♀️
All classes are different. Love the music.
Very welcoming and accepting atmosphere.
The studio was clean and the instructor was really accommodating and nice
All the staff are welcoming and helpful. Every class challenges you, you leave feeling refreshed! The facility is always clean and well maintained.
I LOVE it here!
The music could be more upbeat and recent, (Kendrick Lamar 'Not Like Us'...Saweetie, Megan Thee Stallion vibes), especially for the high-intensity classes. We're in The Bay- I'd love to also hear some music from here (Too $hort, E-40, etc)! Overall so awesome, thank you!
My C1 instructor Justin is the best!!
The staff are wonderful and I get an amazing workout with each instructor.
The teachers are wonderful!
All great, but last class started ~5 min late and the instructor hurried through the sequences.
WC CPY is amazing.
My only suggestion would be more midday (12:15) YS classes (Tuesday and Thursday don’t have one).
Also, Carolyn’s class should be the template for all teachers. She is hands down, one of the best YS instructor I have ever practiced with. I wish every CPY class was like hers. Great music, high heat, intense, fun, all the things it should be.

Stacy is the BEST teacher! She makes class accessible for all and meets each student where they are at. Thank you, Stacy!
After 1000 classes with Core Power at Blackhawk Plaza, I can positively say that there is no other studio that I would rather train at than Blackhawk. They are my #1.
It is always a really good experience , I’m very lucky to have a nice and a very good yoga teacher!
Lauren and Victor
I love the wide variety of yoga classes, how geneuine and open to feedback the instructors are, and the music selection for every single class always makes you want to dance!
Very good ambiance, coaches and the music is amazing every time. The training is always very good and works well with core training of mind and body. I have been part of CorePower Yoga as a member in the past and done extensive training which significantly toned my body along with cardiovascular fitness, along with mindfulness. Thank you, Paramita R.
Great flow and teacher
Listen, CPY Walnut Creek is fantastic and an excellent representation of the larger CPY experience.
However, corporate leans to heavily on instructors. Each instructor does a fantastic job of prepping for class, facilitating class, and setting the tone for the end of class. However, to expect instructors to then clean not only the studio but the locker rooms and common areas is a bit much. With the cost of monthly membership, I don't think that it is unreasonable to have professional cleaners come to the studio once per week to establish a baseline of clean and sanitation that a paid janitorial team could support on a daily basis.
Additionally, maintenance matters go far too long without being attended to. Staff struggled with the door for months and now the heat...and before that it was the water filtration system. Corporate offices have to support studios. After all, we know that good instructors have no shortage of options.
Friendly instructors with clean studio.
Classes are more choices from morning to evening even on weekends.
Great instruction! Very challenging class♥️♥️♥️almost died in the best way 🥰🥰I’ll be back
It’s always a pleasure to take a sculpt class from Lauren! It takes me 35 mins to drive to class with the traffic but I don’t mind it at all!
everything
The staff at the Rockridge studio are outstanding and are the ones who make that studio the best! Amanda, Lauren, Ariana and Anisha are top notch. It is also great to have Jessie back as studio manager.
The classes and teachers are great and consistent. I’ve tried 4 different teachers and they’ve all been great! The studio is nice, clean, and has all the amenities!

Great atmosphere, friendly people, and lots of space!
