Student Testimonials
Amazing
Marissa is a fantastic, energetic and inspiring teacher. It is clear she is so passionate about yoga and teaching. Her playlists and sequences are thoughtful. I do like the lights staying off for the whole class though! The Sauganash studio is one of the best, cleanest and nicest Core Powers in the country!
Amazing staff and great teacher. Such a fun workout class! Very clean studio too.
Just simply everything! I go several times a week for the 6:15 am class and absolutely love the instructors..... Sarah, Mirriam and Jim.All of them are professional, kind, funny and caring souls. First thing in the morning can be rough, but knowing I'm in such good hands makes all the difference in the world. Cheers! Cherie
Great teachers and variety of classes
I absolutely love the Bucktown CorePower location! Every teacher I've had is welcoming, funny, and clearly knows their stuff. The classes are challenging in the best way — hard enough to push you, but you always walk out feeling accomplished.
Special shoutout to Kayla, Darcie, and Elena; my three go-to instructors. With any of them, I know I'm getting a great workout and leaving on a high, even when I'm low-key dying halfway through (in the best way possible).
My only real gripe has nothing to do with the teachers, it's more of a corporate-level thing. For what we're paying monthly, the studios themselves aren't very nice. You have to pay extra for towels and water, and the showers and bathrooms feel pretty bare-bones, nothing that feels premium or worth the price point. Honestly, the amenities feel more like a $50-a-month neighborhood gym than what CorePower charges. I know that's not something the Bucktown team has any control over, and it seems to be a known thing across CorePower locations in general. The facilities aren't great, but the classes and teachers are what keep people coming back.
Teachers are great and welcoming

Great instructors with a variety of classes
CorePower Roscoe is a great studio! I've enjoyed every C2 and Hot Power Fusion class, and the instructors are amazing. The only constructive feedback I have is that there are few sculpt instructors that I really don't enjoy and will actively try to avoid because their classes are unorganized or repetitive, or I'm simply not able to hear/understand them over the music. I also wish there were more C3 offerings, because those classes are so fun and challenging. The studio is usually clean, although classes at the end of the day tend to have a slight smell when we're doing floorwork. There are plenty of offerings so I can always find times that work for me.
Great experience
My instructor was so good. I was able to enjoy my workout while feeling challenged. Music was great! Will be coming back for Kelsey's class!
Teacher Annie is A+ C2 instructor!!!
I really enjoyed this CorePower class taught by Elaine. The playlist was engaging and motivating, and Elaine gave clear instructions/demonstrations throughout the flow.
Very clean facility and spacious.
So challenging and fulfilling!
Strong culture of instructors listening to customers and responding. Caring and professional environment. Cleaning is done pretty well and I see consistent improvements in the facility overtime. I like the challenges to mix up your thinking about your practice. I think advertising the parties before/after such challenges could be better to promote our community. Thank you.
Instructors and variety of classes.
It’s so welcoming and something for every one :)
I love the teachers, music, energy, and the community
Caroline always brings wonderful energy and enthusiasm to her classes. I’ve taken nearly every class she teaches and think she’s a wonderful instructor! Through times when I needed modifications or recovering after a major surgery she was always attentive. It builds loyalty to the studio and practice for sure! Thank you Caroline!
Sam is a great yoga instructor. The whole program he instructs is amazing .
Well organized inviting divers enough and the system of Yoga Core. It’s learnable even the advance classes for beginners.
I love the clean atmosphere and the way Core Yoga promotes.
The confidence and ability of your instructors and the community that they create.
The best studio I’ve been to in Chicago! I moved here from Minneapolis last year and struggled to connect with studios in Gold Coast, River North and Old Town because of the teaching styles and the large number of sculpt classes on the schedule. At Roscoe, the teachers are amazing at offering adjustment suggestions, creating a great flow when cueing poses and are just overall so friendly and welcoming.
I go every day sometimes twice a day . Thats how much I enjoy it
Tracy is one of the best teachers; so challenging and I love the heat
I really enjoyed the classes and the facility. I will most likley be returning.
Many of their teachers are very knowledgeable, play good music, and they’re very nice. I’d like to make them my home gym instead of Uptown.

I love most of the instructors!
