Student Testimonials
The kindness of the staff.
I love core power so much!!! This place has introduced me to a practice that has literally saved my life. In particular, Lev’s HPF at Lohi and Lexi’s 75 min C2 at belmar. I come here to work through trauma and inner complexities that nothing else seems to sooth. A lot of the other classes are very bright and the voices grating but these two teachers bring a magic that cannot be found elsewhere
If you want a skilled teacher that can mindfully advance your practice, I recommend Lev. Their gentle presence and teaching style help open you up to a new level.
Lev is by far the best instructor I have taken at CPY. She has the most calming aura and her rhythmic/sing-teaching is incredibly soothing and helps me to slow my breath down when the class gets hard. She is an advanced teacher who inspires her students to try new things, ground themselves, and encourages growth in the mind and body. Her playlists are always different and good every time. I always look forward to a class with Lev and can honestly say she is the best.
Sophia and Liz are amazing instructors!
I had a GREAT experience. Karter is amazing and I felt so lucky to be able to come to corepower with my sorority!
It was my first ever corepower class and was extremely intimidated signing up! The staff was super welcoming and encouraging from the moment I signed in. Chris was a great teacher encouraging us to challenge ourselves while listening to our bodies.
I had a very positive experience. I am not in the financial position to buy a membership, but I look forward to continuing to come to the community classes until I am at a point where I came.
Taking care of my child always leaves my body feeling stiff and sore, but after doing yoga, my body feels relaxed. I sweat a lot too, so I always feel refreshed afterward!
I loved my yoga sculpt instructor Katelyn! I’ve taken her classes at both North and South Boulder and can’t wait to attend more!
The great instructors like Katelyn Mercier who always make class enjoyable and difficult! She’s the best!

My experience is specific to the Mission Viejo studio. I cannot speak highly enough about the amazing teachers here. They are kind, helpful, welcoming to people of all levels, receptive to feedback, and every one of them puts together incredible, well-thought out programs, which they make accessible to students of all levels; this includes the manager and assistant manager. As a newer student, I have felt the community of people at this studio is wonderful too. All this has led me to do my best without feeling embarrassed or tentative about learning and trying new things. Going here tends to be the only non-stressful hour of my day and is just the relaxation/disconnect I need. Further, the studio is always very clean!
A suggestion for improvements to this studio, as the CSX classes have become very popular (rightfully so), it has become VERY difficult to obtain dumbbells that are weighted adequately. The studio only has a very small handful of 20 - 25lbs dumbbells (maybe three sets of each?), 25lbs being the maximum weight. As such, I recommend strongly that the studio obtain/make available significantly more and heavier dumbbells between 20 - to at least 40lbs. Because CSX is a strength training class, a greater abundance of heavier weights should be available.
Again, the Mission Viejo studio is a wonderful place to be, we just need more heavy weights. Thank you!

Welcome the new manager, Vivian! I am happy to see some nice improvements (heater fixed in studio 1, more classes on the schedule, new instructors). Also, I have noticed we have had some real power house subs as well. She has done a good job with her studio coordinator, Lexus, with getting Woodbridge the facelift that it needed.
I have also noticed and appreciate the teamwork at this studio. I have seen instructors taking other instructors classes which is super cool (Rupesh, Lexus, Pia, Ashlyn Z, Veronica).
A few special shout outs:
-Sonia. She has such positive energy and I have seen her help others by going above and beyond. I love her classes too... :)
-Rupesh. He puts on a welcoming, great community class on Sundays.
-Dulce. She is so thoughtful in the way she puts together all formats that she teaches and is SUPER engaged with the students while she teaches...helpful, encouraging, and creates a safe environment.
-Lexus. Great listener and has taken feedback and created action around it! Thank you!
*David Ge and Pia were two subs that need to come back to instruct more classes. They both were AMAZING!
I took Pia's sculpt class...it was fantastic. Thank you for having her sub (would like to see more of her on the schedule). Why? She knows how to bring such positive energy into the room, gives a really good workout, great music, and she communicates effectively.

I haven’t done yoga in ten years and with the free week pass I did a class last Sunday, it was amazing, I felt great afterwards and plan to continue it to change up only going to the gym. Staff was very friendly and informative about the different classes.
