Student Testimonials
Andrea was a fantastic teacher. Not only did she provide a predictable structure that was easy to follow, but she also helped us follow our intuition and choose movements that our body was looking for. Additionally, she pointed out symbolic, meaning for various poses which added to the depth of the experience. She is a very inspirational and grounding instructor.
I had a great time at the Saturday yoga sculpt class. The class was challenging but easy to modify if you need a break on certain things. The class started and ended on time and the environment seemed safe and clean. I appreciate that they have yoga mats that you can use because even though I have my own, it's not always easy to travel with on the cta when you have all your winter gear on.
I am a yoga teacher, I look for welcoming teachers with knowledge who remind everyone it’s their shape, their choice.
The community classes at CorePower are phenomenal. Super accessible to beginners and the instructors are very welcoming. Something I look forward to weekly.
Great class
Annie Reilly is an amazing teacher! Looking forward for more classes
Setting and instructor!
Class was as described, instructor was very personable
I took my first CorePower Yoga class and I loved my instructor, Emily R! She made even the harder poses/workouts easy to understand and was so encouraging. Thanks, Emily!!
Instructors are passionate about their craft, and are very friendly and caring. Lots of classes to choose from and the location is terrific. Is also nice to have access to studios Nation wide.
I love this studio - but I do have a couple of suggestions. We need additional space in the women’s locker room, and providing both an extra bench and coat hangers in the locker room would be really helpful.
What I love most about CorePower Yoga is the amazing teachers and leadership. The classes are consistently high-quality, motivating, and well-structured, and the sense of community makes every visit feel uplifting and empowering.
Free classes, good instructors

I LOOOOVE taking Andrea's HPF classes and come almost 5 times a week. It's changed my life for the better in sooooo many ways and she is heaven sent. She answers all my questions about forms and breathing techniques I have so I can make sure I'm making the most out of my journey. I used to be a member at a different studio for a year & some change before I was injured and had to pause on my yoga routine but once I was cleared to practice again, I was introduced to CorePower & Andrea's HPF classes and really see my self staying for the years & upping my practice to daily sessions. I started in November and love this location and amenities.
HOWEVER there is one thing that makes it very challenging every class which is the water filter being at red for at least 3 weeks now. When I first started it was at green for a week and then went to yellow/orange and now it's been at red and has stayed there.
I come in with my water bottle filled with my own purified water but if I'm drinking water in the middle of a hot yoga class or a sculpt class as one does and should- then i'm stuck with two options: 1, refill my water bottle with dirty water orrr buy a boxed water for $4 in the middle of
class which is a HUGE inconvenience if no one is at the desk and I don't want to interrupt the instructor from teaching.
I understand sometimes it may take a day or two to change if you're waiting on a delivery for new water tank/filter but weeks? That's unacceptable especially if the only other option is to BUY water since the water fountain has the lowest pressure and probably also not filtered.
People come to corepower to focus on their health and to not have clean water for weeks and not offer free water while the new one is being changed or en route is truly inconsiderate especially if people go daily or multiple times a week. That's $4 a water & if people go daily or multiple times a week that adds up to almost a monthly membership cost just because they don't want to fill their bodies with potentially toxic water. Not to mention, once I leave the studio- I then cannot refill my water bottle until I've washed it because adding my filtered water to a bottle that just had unfiltered/dirty water in it defeats the entire purpose of filtered water.
Just seems crazy to me that a studio that is big on classes that focus on detoxing one's mental and body can just have unfiltered water for weeks like it's nothing.
I'm still incredibly disappointed that CP closed the Hyde Park location without warning.
I LOVE classes with Andrea G. She is so supportive in her teaching. I typically go to her classes exclusively at South Loop.
Maddie Gerling is the best!
I wish they would bring back the 9-9:30 classes on Thursday and Saturday. Maybe a new instructor on Friday morning…
Loved loved loved my Chicago, Sauganash location 01/08/2026 9am HPF instructor Jamie! THANK YOU Jamie!!!
