Student Testimonials

The energy!

Great

Subra is a great instructor

Great instructors and studio.

Excellent staff & facilities! Joe always teaches a fun and challenging class!

I love Core Power classes because the studios are always extremely nice and clean and the staff is knowledgeable and welcoming. It’s also great for all levels since teachers offer modifications. I always come back for more.

I love the classes and teachers are very friendly and provide great work outs or relaxation.

I really like my experience at CorePower Yoga Ballard. I don’t know all the instructors, but the ones who I have had (Kalisa, Joe, Lissy and Brittney, Saydee, and Subra) are all great. And I really like Ruth. Very great.

As a newbie appreciate Shandra who is an encouraging and supportive instructor.

Great line up of classes with amazing instructors who bring there "A" game to their classes.

Fun instructors and good energy.

Very engaging and energizing - exactly what I'm looking for when I take CorePower classes. I like that the facilities are clean and spacious, and the room is both relaxing and spacious.

Consistent experience. Warm rooms. Clean facility. Friendly teachers.

Super happy to be practicing again at CPY Ballard. I’ve noticed tremendous positive changes with the addition of Ruth Davis. Thank you! The studio is cleaner than ever and Ruth provides clear communication around studio updates which members appreciate. Only constructive feedback is around parking. It’s been super tricky to find a spot, but I’m aware of street parking and free spots across the street just have to cushion in extra time.

Instructors are welcoming, personable, and professional. Classes provided strength, flexibility, and left me with a clear mind.

The Ballard CorePower Yoga team is amazing. As someone interested, but inexperienced I've been encouraged and supported in learning this art - it's great. My favorite story is when I showed up as the only participant for an evening class and received some 1:1 coaching that helped my practice. Thanks team - you're amazing!

Lissy is the best instructor :) She’s kind, attentive, gives good cues, and makes me feel welcome.

The people at Ballard branch are very nice. Ruth is extremely friendly - very positive. The instructors that I have had are all helpful in regards to yoga practice, and just very nice people.

Sam teaches the BEST sculpt class. Love the pace and the challenge. Even though the studio is having some heating issues, I will still be back for her classes when able.

Great teachers,

Amy is really great (peaceful presence, instruction on point) and my body feels so good and limber after HPF. Great facilities too.

I truly appreciate the usual reliability of knowing when certain classes are happening at Ballard Core Power. As of late, however, that assessment was not just challenged but dissepointed. For weeks now, the heating system at the Ballard studio has been dysfunctional, larger areas of the studio have been taped off (I guess due to concern that something would fall from the ceiling), the studio often has now been cold and now there is a temporary heater that is loud and barely does the job. To top things off, there was a class last Wednesday and this last Sunday were the access to the studio was completely blocked (WED) or the parking was completely closed off (Sunday).
ON the positive, I think that all the teachers deserve special recognition and credit for being the thoughtful humans that they are. I would like to call out Manali, Emily A, and Dominika. All three are simply awesome! Last Wednesday, Manali and Dominika were standing out in the cold to guide us clients to Queen Anne to make up for the fact that the Ballard Studio was closed off that day (both of them were surprised and disappointed that the Ballard Studio was closed that day and not accessible that day). They made us aware that Emily A was leading a sculpt class at 6:15 am that day in Queen Anne.

Excellent staff & facilities! Brittany teaches a fun class with great pacing!

Welcoming staff and instructors, not intimidating but also pushes us to try our best!

Love the instructors and the wide variety of quality of classes.

It’s wonderful to see the studio manager Ruth around the studio outside of being an instructor. She helped me with additional stretches I could do to help a sciatica problem in having. All the classes have great instructors.

Ruth is a powerhouse. Amazing class. Studio had some items under repair, but Ruth communicated these at the beginning of class, which set expectations. Highly recommend her class.

I love CorePower! The instructors and staff at the Ballard studio are all so nice and welcoming. Extra shoutout/appreciation for Carly, Kinsy, Rachel, Ruth, and Sam! The Ballard studio has a really great community.

Instructors and classes are great

The workout itself was amazing, I love feeling sore the next day! Also, the instructor was engaging and motivating…..and her 80’s playlist was the bomb!!!
