This studio is one of the two places where I did my CPY teacher training. I have practiced at this studio more times than I can count.

I'll readily admit that if you like heated yoga, no one does it better. The classes are not bad most days.

The trouble with CPY is that they are aggressively oriented towards young, healthy people. That ends up being abusive if you are older and unhealthy, like me.

I'm 65 and I have a fairly severe form of arthritis. To say that I wasn't welcomed by CPY would be a huge understatement.

The anatomy class during my CPY teacher training is a great example of what I am talking about. I showed up to that class and infomed the instructor of my medical issues. I needed a slight accommodation in order to manage myself successfully during the 4 hour class.

Not only did the instructor refuse to accommodate me, he did so aggressively. He told me that I would have to adapt like any other student, or I wouldn't get credit for the class. Now, this was a requirement for the training: Unless I was able to complete this class, I couldn't graduate. Basically, I was forced to either try to make it through the class, or abandon my several thousand dollars of tuition. Obviously I tried.

In an obvious attempt to make me as uncomfortable as possible, the instructor opened the door. It was January in Colorado. Snow was on the ground. Within minutes the temperature plummeted to the low 40s. I showed up for a class indoors. I didn't have any kind of protection from the cold. Within the first hour, I was in severe hypothermia.

As anyone who is familiar with arthritis knows, the result of hypothermia for person with severe arthritis is pain. Copious, massive amounts of pain. Within the first hour, I went into level 9 pain. The most common symptom of level 9 pain is uncontrollable sobbing. Once I got to that point, you may be sure that heaven and Earth was moved to help me.

I find it completely ridiculous that it got to that point. Let's assume that instead of arthritis, I have, say, MS or Parkinson's. In that situation, the result would be a call to 911. You definitely would have ended up with that person in the hospital. Or possibly dead.

Now, my question is simple: Does my ability to teach yoga have anything to do with my ability to withstand cold? Or putting it differently, is it possible for a person with arthritis, MS or Parkinson's to teach yoga? I have personally fought back one of the most difficult and daunting health problems that you can possibly imagine. As I write this, I'm about 90% remitted off my peak. All of that progress is due to the practice, of course.

If I were CPY I would be looking for teachers just like me. Someone who has used yoga to dramatically improve their health. Instead, what you get from CPY is teachers who are young, fit and pretty.

Here's my bottom line: These folks are elitist jerks. They engage in rank aggressive discrimination against elderly and disabled people. If you are not young and fit at CPY, you're pondscum. That's just annoying, particularly when they maintain a hypocritical pretension of being enlightened. Avoid CPY if you care about the interests of the elderly and handicapped. They're bigots.

I love how consistent the classes are. All teachers encourage the class to work to their ability and then push gently toward improvement. The teachers have really great discipline in their cueing which allows me to get a great workout and a bit of meditation at the same time. I really love the classes that have a general intention, it always helps me think of new things to concentrate and grow within my life. Thanks for all you do!

I go every Saturday at the same time. Mia is an awesome instructor! The classes always have a different flow sequence so I always feel challenged. The facilities are also nice and clean.

I book through the ClassPass app.

Usually good. However when I get up at 5am to be at a 5:30 class and nobody shows up to open the building and teach the class... it is very bothersome

This studio encompasses everything one needs to feel amazing, get in shape and have fun! Brittane and Julia are wonderful teachers motivating students throughout their classes with insightful intentions and encouraging words. The studio is beautifully set up with spa-like amenities. The heat feels SO good! After a class here I'm ready to conquer the world! Thank you!

I just adore the beautiful humans that reside in this space. The instructors and practitioners create a beautiful harmony that I have yet to experience at other facilities. This is my home away from home. The classes offer something for everyone-- restoration, relaxation, cardio, flow, workout... "all the things". The instructors are highly skilled at creating beautiful sequences set to phenomenal playlists. I just can't say enough good things about this space, and the people who fill it.

I have always had the most incredible yoga practice experiences at aCore Power. The instructors are well trained as well as sensitive to each student's needs. The class rooms are clean and well equipped whether someone might be a beginner or more advanced in their practice, everyone is graciously accommodated. I highly recommend CorePower Yoga.

Clean facilities, nice products in bathroom, good teachers, and friendly staff.

Corepower was my first yoga experience 10 years ago... I've tried several other styles/locations nation-wide since, and I can very honestly say none measured up (most were pleasant, just not the same). I feel like I should state that when I started I was a competitive athlete and I liked that the 90min hot was not "easy." Soon after retiring I was still pretty active and got into fusion and C2 classes. Again, I liked that it was a workout. Not to say they are not relaxing-- they relax and revive/refresh (whatever you want to call it)-- but they can also be challenging.
I can appreciate that some of the negative reviews state that it's too hot, too hard, too whatever else... I do know they offer C1 and restorative yoga, which may be what those patrons were looking for (I've personally never attended). As for expense, Well, it's not cheap. However, they do offer discounts and other incentives. And we'll, you get what you pay for. I totally think it's worth it if you go often. Paying class by class does get a little pricey. As for the instructors, they are awesome, attentive, and helpful 99.9% of the time. Not sure what more you can ask for...
I just started taking classes again (been so long I even got a free week!). A decade later and the classes are just as good as I remember, and precisely my "cup of tea." I was a bit nervous since I am about 20 lbs heavier, and nowhere near the shape I was back in the day. I am happy to realize the practices are essentially what you make of them. Even now they are as challenging, or relaxing, as I make them. Thanks!

All the instructors I met were very friendly. The facility was clean and welcoming. I loved the classes I attended. I will be attending classes there as often as I can break away.

There are several yoga studios and gyms that offer yoga in Colorado Springs. Core Power ranks number one for knowledgeable teachers, cleanliness and true community. This is not just the business of yoga. These peole care about your well being, head to toe. Numerous classes daily make it worth the investment.
