CorePower Yoga

I took the C1 class (level 1 Vinyasa flow) from Charlotte on Saturday at 5:30pm. She was subbing for the regular instructor, and I found Charlotte to be a very competent, kind teacher who kept us flowing! It was the first trial class I had at this studio.
If you are interested in the workout-​based, shiny, spa-​like yoga, I feel like this is a great studio for you. I usually prefer a more traditional yoga studio, but I definitely would recommend this studio for workout warriors! I was drenched and feeling a full workout after the hour long class.
Thanks for the free trial week! I may drop in to try some more classes soon. :)

I would love to be writing this review about a class or even the facilities, but I never got that far :)
The atmosphere of this place is awful.
I kept getting sized up by one of the girls behind the counter and of the 4 of them, not one of them offered a «hello» or asked me if I needed any help in the time I was there… so I just left.
I am of the firm belief that if you’re going to pay 25 bucks to take a god damn yoga class, you should feel welcome… I’ll take my masochism elsewhere.
This fat bottom girl is not impressed… pm me if you know of a better yoga spot.

Get your yoga sweat and fitness on!
Great chain for yoga and the sessions are convenient. It starts early and runs very late. However, if you’re looking for drop in, they have classes almost every hour so it’s great. You can pick your own availability. There are different levels, but it’s heated yoga, nonetheless.
I love that it’s fully equipped with new supplies, showers and storage space. Extra additives include lotion and so forth.
The studio rooms are nicely heated.
I get my vinyasa flows here and am superbly happy afterwards.
Yogis for the win!

Absolutely love love love Core Power Yoga! I bought the Groupon, and I’m a new client so it’s only $ 75 for 5 weeks! I’m usually not one to go to classes because I like to do my own workout at the gym, but Core Power has changed my perspective on this. I initially signed up because I have very bad lower back pain and hoped coming to the classes will enable me to get better. It’s only been the 4^th day coming here and I already feel a stronger core and better wellness overall. I am planning on coming to core power every day and I will definitely try and come twice a day sometimes as well! The instructors are absolutely phenomenal and so so kind. I had Megan Web for 2 of my classes and she is so kind, caring and does a great workout! I will definitely come to all of her workouts every chance I get! The other instructors I have had (Sara and Theresa) are awesome as well. I am so excited to come here everyday for the next 5 weeks and continue my membership after at CorePower as well!

I came to CorePower Yoga on Shattuck for a Sunday morning Yoga Sculpt class. I didn’t know what I was in for, as it was a challenging class that started with a few yoga sequences but later incorporated a lot of weight lifting and cardio exercises. My weak arms couldn’t hold the weights out long enough after many repetitions, and the room to improve was inspiring. The class even includes jumping jacks and running in place, highly unconventional but fine as long as one doesn’t expect a traditional yoga class. I came out dripping with sweat, a great feeling. As usual for CPY, there is a lot of cute workout clothing in the front area of the studio, and I liked discovering new yoga brands browsing the mini boutique.

Fun to go with friend (s). Some classes are very crowded but it is conveniently located, near BART and a very clean facility.

Phenomenal practice, great teachers, clean studio. Love their heated yoga!
–1 star though b/​c it’s very pricy :(I’d want to go everyday but unfortunately only got to do their 2 week trial given the classes are so expensive. Later on when I have $$, I’ll definitely be signed up for their program! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I tried the CorePower beginner class on Saturday morning, I liked it but I don’t think CorePower is my style. The studio is beautiful, and the locker rooms are clean and have great showers and products to use. The yoga rooms have charger stations on the corner for your phones, and they have nice, hardwood floors. You can tell that they keep up the studio well!
The class itself had about 10 people, and the beginner class is only heated slightly above room temp. I enjoyed the class I took but it felt very «branded» — a lot of the teacher’s phrases felt forced, like she was supposed to be saying things a certain way. I didn’t find this class soothing at all, even in the last bit of Shavasana. CorePower is definitely more on the fitness-​gym focused type of yoga, which appeals to many, just not to me.

I am a happy Corepower Yoga customer! The facilities are great, and the location is perfect: near the bart and close to campus. I can see how parking would be challenging in this area if you’re taking an evening class, but there are 2 hour meters and even free parking if you’re willing to walk from Milvia.
The classes and instructors are amazing: very consistent, challenging, and ultimately really fun!

This convenient, BART accessible, downtown location is quick to become by go-​to CorePower branch after more than a year of religious attendance at the University Avenue studio.
What used to be a Kinko’s is now a beautiful, two room studio with a big retail/​hangout space in the front and fully equipped bathrooms in the back. As is often the case at CorePower, locker space is a little limited but it works. You can rent a lock for a $ 1 deposit.
The studio specializes in heated flow yoga, but they also have non-​heated classes for beginners and sculpt classes — weights and yoga combined — for the hardcore. No spinning classes yet, that I could see, but if I’m craving spin, the University studio isn’t that far away.
Classes every day, with last classes at 6 pm on weekends.
Oh, and guys, there are plenty of dudes taking yoga classes here. Don’t be afraid to join. Your first week is free.
