It is with regret that I now rate CPY as 2 star. I was a member of this studio for several years. I did my teacher training here. I have lots of reasons to be fond of these folks.
In fact, I moved 1,400 miles to come to Colorado in part so that I could attend this studio and take yoga teacher training here.
To say that did not go well would be a huge understatement. I attended the teacher training to great acclaim. I was consistently told by all of the instructors to go for the additional Extensions class (at yet another several months and hundreds of dollars). At the graduation ceremony for that class, I was encouraged to apply for a position as an instructor with this studio, which I immediately did. I waited an entire year for a response to that application. Eventually, I approached the director of this studio, Sara Rainey, as to why I never received a response to my application.
She refused to answer the question.
Eventually, I watched each and every graduate of this class get auditioned. Not me though.
Now, to be perfectly honest, I do not have any idea of why CPY didn't audition me. It's mysterious. Obviously, they broke a promise when they did that. However, I have a theory. I was more than 30 years older than any of the other participants in the class. I'm also disabled. I have severe arthritis. The only reason that I am not presently in a wheelchair, is because I have been practicing yoga pretty much every day for the last 16 years. My hunch is that CPY engaged in rank ageism and healthism in their decision not to audition me. Obviously, that would constitute age discrimination, as well as discrimination against the disabled. Remember that CPY has stubbornly refused to tell me why they wouldn't audition me. That certainly indicates that that reason is not one that they are proud of.
Could I successfully teach yoga? Yes I suspect so. I taught thousands of classes in commercial gyms during the 80s and 90s. I was an AFAA and IDEA certified exercise trainer. I taught cardio, bench, aqua, you name it.
My ask to readers of this review is simple: Don't use CPY. There are lots of alternatives. And these folks are jerks. If you care about discrimination against the disabled and elderly, then please avoid these guys.
The studios are clean and feel peaceful, with very little outside noise to distract. I am instantly able to get in the mindset to practice. The classes offer various levels to appeal to all yogis, and the variety keeps me interested. But the instructors are what makes Corepower successful. They're knowledgeable, professional and involved all while promoting an environment of equality, caring and nurturing growth. This is a company made by the quality of the teachers for sure! My favorite being Julia Bogart-Ortiz who brought me to this studio!
We are visiting Colorado springs on vacation. After doing a lot of hiking/walking I convinced my fiance to take a yoga class with me to help stretch out our sore hips and legs. As soon as we walked in corepower we felt so welcomed! Our instructor was excellent! My fiance is still new to yoga so we were looking for a beginner friendly class so we took c1. Julia (our instructor) gave out great cues and helped adjust our poses! As a yoga instructor myself, I strongly recommend this place!

In town for vacation and needed to do some yoga after hiking a few days. They do such a great job with making you feel comfortable and welcomed. Highly recommend checking them out.

The studio is very welcoming. I mostly like the consistency of the classes...you know what you're going to get. The instructors are friendly, knowledgeable, and care about their students (getting to know you). The classes are challenging, yet if you want to slow down you can...'you are your own teacher'

I enjoy the instructors and the studios. The instructors are positive, knowledgeable, encouraging, and not pretencious. The studios are clean and feel like a yoga studio should feel with great lighting, climate and music.

CorePower offers a variety of classes and times from which to choose. They also have showers. Most yoga studios do not have showers, which is not convienent for me.
You have amazing instructors, the facility is very clean, and every class is great!
Wonderful C1 and Hot Yoga instructors: Jacqi, Jenna and Lindsay (C1), Shannon (I know she moved on to teach C2), Nan and Julie and Robert (Hot Yoga). Great classes!
Love love love this place! Great workouts!
The availability of classes is my very favorite part. The variety of classes and instructors is wonderful. The professionalism and knowledge base of instructors. The welcoming, friendly, and supportive environment were important to me when I was nervous about attending different levels of classes. I really enjoy classes in Studio 2 classroom, especially the candlelight C2 class. I loved my week of classes! I even brought my 14 year old son to one with me. Thank you!
Natasha, the instructor for C1, was awesome! She was very helpful and explained the poses well. She was also very friendly and excited to share her passion for yoga with others. The facilities on Nevada are very nice - clean and well decorated.
I would have answered "5 stars," but I gave a 4 because classes are so expensive! The only reason I'm attending is because I won a certificate for a free month at a fundraiser for UpaDowna, but I don't know how anyone affords to go to yoga for over $100 / month or $20 / class - crazy!
I adore the CpY family! Great classes, great teachers, consistent, great management, good amenities...And you get to be in the best shape of your life! I like to cycle through all the different classes each week to keep things fresh and challenging!
