Student Testimonials
I LOVE every instructor at Westbend. The new teachers have been very well trained. Every class is challenging and cued to perfection and the music playlists are fantastic.
My favorite part is the availability of so many classes--If I missed one, there is always another I can take! I also adore the heat:)
Very like this class!
I love it. Great exercise, friendly teachers, nice space… it’s like yoga plus. You can do yoga and you can do yoga plus cardio.
The decision maker(s) who determine class types & schedules must believe that Sculpt is the preference which the majority of Deerfield membership demands, followed by CPY 1, 2, & 3. Neither sculpt nor flow are yoga types which I practice.
HPF and CoreRestore class offerings fall behind sculpt & flow. I live in Deerfield, 1/2 mile from the Deerfield studio and find myself attending practices at Winnetka, Glenview, and Old Orchard 90% of the time. Not a terrible inconvenience, hence the 10 rating for CPY overall.
However, I see positive change on the Deerfield horizon, with the addition of StrengthX to Sunday mornings and hope to see at least 1-2 more StrengthX classes during the week (at the expense of YS & CPY 1,2, or 3?). I can practice HPF at one of the other studios and can do my own, self-directed CR (yin) practice at home.
As of this writing, I am at 799 lifetime CPY classes.
I rate CPY an overall 10 rating because of the convenience of 4 studios within 10 miles of my home. The studios are clean and well maintained and offer class types which I prefer to practice, at times convenient to my schedule.
Notice I left out rating instructors. I was raised to believe that, if you couldn't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all.
Instructors are excellent
Great environment, great instructors
Great facilities and great instructors
Teacher is energetic and motivating and show kindness! Love the energy of fellow students. Warm environment is important to encourage newcomers! Love this studio!
The CPY Bucktown studio is amazing - it's the highlight of my day and I love the little community we've built! Darcie's Yoga Sculpt classes are epic... she has somehow mastered the art of kicking our butts while ensuring we have the most fun in the process (her music is A+++). Joey is another favorite Yoga Sculpt teacher who delivers an exceptional workout with an amazing experience (and phenom. playlists!).
My only question is whether we can somehow block out the sun from the upper windows in studio one. Between the heat from the sun and the super bright rays pouring in, it can be a bit much. I recognize shades are pricey so might not be an option but throwing it out there!
I love the Hinsdale studio along with all the teachers ! The best!
Love Wendy as an instructor. Staff always friendly. Studio is clean. Class instruction is great . Studio is nice and hot !
Courtney is the best
I started Yoga Sculpt at CorePower about a month ago now and I’ve been LOVING it. I’ve been wanting to practice Yoga for years now, on top of wanting to get active after being completely sedentary for the past few years. Nothing could motivate me, a gym membership, access to parks, etc., the only thing that gets me out of bed each morning is CorePower. I love how it makes me feel, on days I don’t start my morning with Yoga Sculpt, I always wish I would have. Classes with Josh, Kim, Isabelle and Melody are my favorite. They are so motivating and seamlessly balance the art of flow with intensity and intentionality! I couldn’t give them enough kudos for their teaching styles.
The group at Brewers Hill does a terrific job! Convenient, great classes & facilities, and the teachers are creative and encouraging.
The location is convenient and I like the classes and instructors.
Valentina’s classes are the best. She’s always so connected with the group and brings so much joy to the classes.
Workout results, pos environment , good teachers
great studio and inspiring instructors
It’s a big studio with a welcoming environment! My friend and I loved our yoga sculpt experience.
Most instructors are awesome and know how to formulate a flow class.
All of the instructors are welcoming, encouraging and enthusiastic. They each have their own style which makes the classes more exciting! Ashleigh is extremely helpful and positive when you have a question about membership. Overall, this is a great experience that makes you want to come back each time.
I love a few of the instructors! Mette B, Shannon B and Dani C.
I prefer when the room gets a bit of incense between class because it drowns out the sweat and smell of the yoga mats. I appreciate if instructors would consider doing that ahead of each class
I love CPY and the instructors are awesome! Ava's YS class is great!
I enjoyed the atmosphere, the workout, and the pace of the class.
So grateful for CPY teachers and all the positive support the minute members arrive until they exit. The more you put in to your classes by showing up on your mat the more you receive. Blessed and grateful for the dedication of the teachers and staff who walk the talk by their dedication to their own practices and consistent communication with all the students. It's a joy to belong to CPY no matter which studio you got to locally or when you travel.
I live in Federal Hill but travel to Brewers Hill because it is feels better all the way around there.
love CorePower! always a great experience
I like how knowledgeable the teachers are.
I was surprised to be the only student in the class so I had a 1-1 w/instructor who made accommodations for me.
