Seems like this is a high quality franchise in the cities. This is my second one and it essentially matches the first, except it's a bit more "urban" (vertical and in a city setting).
Great C2 class here, only a moderate amount of sweating this timeHelpful 6Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 1 - Jul 11, 2018
I absolutely love CorePower Yoga. They have great instructors and quality workouts. I usually go to a different studio, but came to this one because I wanted to go to a hot yoga class during the weekday in the morning.
This studio is great. There is always parking around. It is on the second level of the building it is in and very easy to get to. They also have a small clothing section too!
The instructors here are great. They know what they are doing and are very friendly! I usually come to the hot yoga classes at this location and the instructors are great.
Yes, the classes are a little pricy, but it is honestly worth it. The rooms are heated so you get a loose and stretched out in your workout and feel great after. They do have deals for students and educators!
If you don't know what classes are like, sign up for the one week trial period for free! I guarantee you will find a class you like and will want to come back!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - 1872561642Oct 6, 2017271 check-ins

My review is from the stand point of a COMPLETE beginner! I was challenged by my high school students to go out of my comfort zone, and try something new! I'm proud to say I did it!
I came for a C1 class, and explained to the instructor, Christine, that I have a neuropathy and and have had a plethora of surgeries on my feet/legs. Along with that, I have zero balance. She continually gave me alternative poses and stretches. The same happened with Thomas. Both adjusted me with the things I could do, and gently instructed.
As I'm rather afraid people will judge my disabilities, I was almost in tears the entire class. Christine reassured me, by saying... But you didn't give up! We will help you! This place makes me feel I should try all sorts of things!!! Thanks!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Jo K.Houston, TX2110222Feb 10, 2017
I've been going to this location on & off for 3+ years and just now getting around to reviewing it.. but it's worth the wait. CorePower is a great studio if you're looking for an athletic yoga class. Not just sculpt classes (with weights, squats, push-ups, all the fitness greats) but also the vinyasa (C1, C1.5, C2) classes are fast paced and always changing sequences.
Classes:
It should be said, this is not a traditional yoga studio where everything is calming & spiritual. Other reviewers calling it "corporate yoga" are not wrong. Come here expecting an energizing, challenging class and that's just what you'll get.
If you're a beginner, go to C1 and stick with it until you're familiar with the postures. Sculpt, C2, even hot power fusion-- teachers will cue the posture but not break it down, as the assumption is these classes are intermediate+.
Studio:
The studio is fairly small, but charming. A little retail section, locker rooms for men & women (with showers, lockers & all), even a little sitting area if you get to class super early and want to read a book and chill. Locker rooms are madness if you go to 6AM classes, and you need to bring your own lock. Parking can be tricky on the weekends so COME EARLY if you want a spot and don't want to rush into class. There is a free lot behind the building & free parking on the side streets.
The only sticky spot for CorePower is the price. $139/month for an unlimited membership is a steep cost, and whether or not it's worth it really depends on how much you'll go & your budget. They do drop-in classes & class packages as well.
Overall, I really like this studio. It's a convenient spot for me personally, has a lot of cute stores/restaurants nearby, and provides me with fun & challenging yoga.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1 - Jenna H.Saint Paul, MN1434Aug 21, 2017Updated review
This studio is expensive, but I am lucky enough to take advantage of the discount for K-12 educators (class pack of 10 classes for $144). I would not be a member if this discount did not exist. If you are on a tight budget, I suggest trying the free week. Once you are on the email list you will get notifications about free classes every so often. I was never pressured to buy a class pass and chose to do so on my own. [As of summer 2017, the class pack for educators went up to $159 for 10 classes.]
As for the classes, I always leave feeling invigorated and stronger. I practiced yoga for 7 years before trying core power and I have seen better results in my core strength and arm strength since I started here.
My favorite class is the C2. Even though this is not technically "hot yoga," the classes are in heated rooms. At first I couldn't tell if I was sweating so much because it was a great workout or just because of the heat. I have acclimated to the warm classes and can definitely tell that it is a great workout; my abs and arms are transforming!
I'm not sure why other reviews mention that this place is snooty, that hasn't been my experience at all! The instructors have been warm, accommodating, and non-judge mental when I ask questions. They also encourage you to listen to your body and ignore what other people are doing. This is a very important reminder for me to focus on my own practice.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Jul 20, 2016Previous reviewThis studio is expensive, but I am lucky enough to take advantage of the discount for K-12 educators (class pack of 10 classes for $144).

Above and beyond impressed with this location's customer service. Both instructors and the studio manager, Jen, are incredibly kind and helpful. I highly recommend supporting this studio!

Since I don't live in St. Paul, and it's a ways for me to get here. I've only been here on weekends and the only classes that I have taken here are from two instructors, that I found so inspiring and worth it, that I make it out here just for their class. Cynthia on Saturday nights, and Greg H on Sunday nights both at 7:30 pm for Candlelight yoga. Yes, I said Saturday and Sunday nights...my idea of "party" is yoga..can't you tell?
As for the space, it's beautiful and spacious. The locker/shower rooms are clean, comfy and spacious as well. There's a private lot for parking. Really, I live in the wrong part of town..I would come here all the time, and not just weekends, otherwise.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Oct 13, 2011
I ended up coming here because of a gift which is interesting because this is a gift that keeps on giving. They usually have a first week free deal running also so you can try it out first.
I am always kindly greeted at the desk & now I feel that many of the instructors have also become my friends. Every instructor has their own style & all are always welcome to help you with poses or any questions you have after class.
The general area is always very clean. The studios sometimes need a little more help, but it depends on the class before & whether the cleaners can get into the room before the next class is always getting in the door.
Parking is a bit cramped, but I usually always find a space behind the studio in the back parking lot. Lots of stores in the area & even food if you love convenience. It's a great location and a wonderful place to work out your mind, body & spirit. I've now even started the teacher training program & they have other programs like boot camp, cleanses, etc. It's a great place! Can't say enough good things!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Aurora D.Omaha, NE324290282Sep 16, 2015
I really like CorePower here. They are always friendly and accommodating. I live out of town but I appreciate their flexibility and their ease of renting mats and towels when I go.
I've tried beginner and beginner hot and both were nice classes - I wish I remembered the instructors' names. The rooms are nice sizes, even when full and I thought the place was clean, which is always something you want to look for in a studio that offers hot yoga!
They have a good mix of classes throughout the day, too. It's a different style from what I've practiced - a little more relaxed and they're not afraid to play music (that's not distracting). It's a good change from the oh-so-serious studios I've been to!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
