CorePower yoga has great teachers.
I love CorePower! The sculpt classes are empowering, showing how much your body can push.
Ryan's playlist always makes the class better! He is such a great instructor, and he always goes the extra mile to tie his playlist selections to the class theme.

Great class great teacher it works
I genuinely love CorePower Yoga—the consistency, the variety of classes, and the quality of the workouts are why I keep coming back. It’s one of the few places where I know I’ll get a strong, reliable experience across locations and instructors.
That said, there’s one issue that’s become hard to ignore: the music volume in Sculpt classes.
At times, it’s simply too loud—so loud that it becomes physically uncomfortable and genuinely distracting. I’ve now had to leave class early more than once because of it, which is frustrating given how much I enjoy the workout itself.
It’s not just the volume—it’s also how the music is being used. During more complex or instruction-heavy sequences, the combination of:
extremely high volume
songs with heavy lyrics
and instructors needing to raise their voices to be heard
creates a kind of sensory overload. Your brain is being pulled in multiple directions—trying to follow cues, process layered movements, and filter out lyrics that compete with the teacher’s voice. In a heated room, especially, that level of stimulation can cross from energizing into overwhelming.
Music can absolutely elevate a class. When it’s used intentionally—instrumental, well-paced, and balanced with instruction—it enhances focus and flow. But when it’s consistently cranked at maximum volume, especially with lyric-heavy tracks, it can actually take away from the experience rather than support it.
I’ve even started bringing earplugs just in case, which feels like a workaround for something that could be addressed more directly through instructor awareness and studio standards. It also seems like there should be some consideration around safe decibel levels in an enclosed, heated environment.
To be clear—this isn’t every instructor. There are teachers who manage music beautifully, and the difference is noticeable. But often enough, it feels like music management is inconsistent, and that inconsistency impacts the overall experience.
I’m sharing this because I care about the space and want to keep coming back. With just a bit more attention to how music is used—especially in Sculpt—this could easily go from a great experience to an exceptional one.
Love the classes, teachers, etc.
Great teachers and vibe
Incredible instructors and staff, tons of classes and it’s nice and clean!
The teachers are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about teaching. As a law student, joining CorePower has become a vital part of my routine. It’s taught me how to manage stress, stay present, and breathe.
Sara the manager is amazing! She has created a beautiful environment & yoga community!
It’s relaxing. I feel better after, and I love the “flow” the teacher creates.
In short, I feel more like myself and “in my body” after class.
I’ve consistently attended times with Lindsay as she is kind, and she consistently creates a flow that isn’t too easy or too difficult and she is very intentional and present with the practice. The music chosen is perfect
Kristin is a great instructor
Instructors were super friendly. Space was very clean and the classes were not packed.
Jasmine is a great instructor. I go to Charlestown for sculpt classes (closer to home), but come fo Core Restore whenever I can to Kendall. It really helps my body and mind after a busy week. Thank you for having this class and thanks to Jasmine!
Lani is THE BEST!!!
