Environment, challenge, instructors, variety
The instructor, Patrick. He’s the bees knees. He’s knowledgable, and incredibly consistent with his classes, time after time. He provides clear instruction and explanation.. truly one of the best instructors I’ve ever had.
Great class, awesome teacher, amazing space. Really enjoyed it, thank you CorePower! You always deliver the highest quality!
Love the instructors/staff, the yogi community, and everything about the facilities as well as the classes.
I had a very good experience at corepower, just that I feel that I waste a lot of time drinking water and wiping my sweat, so i was missing out on a lot of time.
Really great instructor!
Great instruction and music
I thoroughly enjoyed the yoga instructor Starlight. She is wonderfully knowledgeable and I highly recommend!
The yoga class was a small group, which made it feel comfortable and personalized. Ms. Stephanie B. was easy to follow and provided clear instructions throughout the session. Parking validation was also available, which was a nice convenience.
CorePower is awesome!
Great classes with encouraging instructors.
Thank you CorePower!
cleanliness, staff and classes
I tried the 7-day trial and took seven different classes with different instructors. Every C2 class was fun, energetic, and challenging, while the Core, Restorative, and Sound Healing classes offered a calm, grounding practice that helped me slow down, reconnect, and reset. It was a wonderful balance of movement and stillness, and I really enjoyed experiencing the variety of classes and instructors.
Corepower Bucktown has been a "home away from home" for me. I have been going there since it first opened 13 years ago. The instructors like Monika M, Laura N were my introduction to how they made every class feel like it was full of family. Since then, I have discovered many more wonderful instructors like Michael K who have followed in that same tradition.
I am, however ,growing frustrated with the management of Core Power generally.
The cleanliness of the studios in Bucktown and Lakeview have suffered. And, the "homelike" feel of the studios in general seems to be being replaced by hard pressing sales people who are more interested in signing up "customers" than giving students an experience that will keep them returning.
My monthly membership has increased twice in the last year. The last increase was done without notice. When I reached out for an explanation, I was told that an email was sent. There was no email. Many others have complained about how the "feel " of Corepower is becoming less personal.
Please remember that people come to yoga to escape the foolishness of external forces. Corepower Yoga has always been a clean, safe sanctuary for that. Please do not make it the McDonalds of yoga.
Your instructors have spent time developing a community. Please remember that. Communication is key.

Love the teachers and community
