Student Testimonials
I went to four CorePower locations during my free week and Uptown was my favorite! Both the facilities and the instructors are fantastic! Scott's HPF is definitely worth a try and you'll likely be hooked. Great experiences here!
Sophia’s class is my favorite it’s challenging but approachable.
This studio is awesome!
Staff was welcoming. Sizable facilities. Seemed well maintained.
CorePower has been amazing and I love the sense of community it has provided for me.
Very welcoming!
The teachers!
Alycia was fabulous!!! The room was full yet comfortably spaced. The temperature was perfect. Well done! Thank you for sharing the yoga community!!
I love Bridgette! She is my favorite teacher! She is so motivating, positive and funny. I love her class. She always has challenging material and seems like she loves being there. I have taken class in maybe 16 Core Powers and Bridgette is by far one of the best teachers I have encountered.
Love this studio! (also love that theres a parking lot LOL)
I thought all the teachers were great! Wide variety of times and classes to fit my schedule. Very welcoming.

The studio is very clean and the staff is very welcoming.
Had an amazing class with Kristine. The best yoga class I've ever had personally. She was an excellent teacher and the entire experience was awesome - I'm now going to be doing more yoga as a result!
Intensive training and instructor
It's close to my current home with free parking, and the instructors are really great.
Love Maya!
Love the sculpt instructors at this location!
Clean studio and friendly staff
Love the instructors, would be nice to have the weights better organized and cleaned.
check the temperature
I really like the classes and the instructors are excellent. Shoutout to Meg, Gabe, and Emily!
That said, as a regular student and former instructor, I think the Old Town studio itself is due for some improvements. Specific suggestions:
- Classes are regularly short of 5 and 8 lb weights. It feels pretty basic that there should be enough weights to align with class capacity. It would be great if the studio got more.
- The fully booked classes are often uncomfortably full, to the point where instructors have to move people around, which is awkward. I recommend the studio either adjust class capacity or have a better system for mat spacing. The black marks on the floor don't really work, and many of them are missing
- The women's locker room is too small for class capacity. I rarely see people use the showers, and the office space seems bigger than is needed (e.g., compared to the Lincoln Park studio). As a longer-term project, the studio seems due for a floorplan redesign
I love the structure of the classes and I know I’m getting a great work out in. However lately the classes have been overcrowded and that really ruins the experience
The corepower trainers are always so friendly and guide you through the classes great! The studio is always very clean and overall great environment!
I was in Chicago for NYE visiting a friend and had the privilege of taking a class or two while I was in town. The studio staff and instructor were so kind and the classes were challenging! The locker room was nicer than my home studio (which was a plus). I would def recommend this studio to anyone in the River North neighborhood.
Good classes, clean studio, friendly staff
Meghan was an absolutely fantastic instructor. Thanks for the great experience and pushing me to grow through the experience!
Clean facility. Knowledgable and friendly staff. Good level of yoga for beginners or mid level
Staff was welcoming and pleasant
Had a great experience at Julia's Yoga Sculpt class!! The music in her playlist was perfectly curated for the workout and so motivating! She offers good options for higher and lower intensity but will no-doubt give you an amazing workout!
