Student Testimonials
The teacher was great!
The teacher is the absolute best around. Ivana is outstanding and she puts so much work into giving us the best possible workout. She matches the moves to the music and puts together routines that are challenging and I follow her all around the area. I live the closest to Arlington Heights, but I will travel to other studios to have Ivana as my teacher even if there is another teacher doing a sculpt class at the same time in Arlington Heights. We are very lucky to have Ivana as our teacher and I am thankful for her!
like the different levels of class difficulty. Nice to have different instructors who approach yoga from various perspectives
The studio is always so welcoming. The instructors make the experience!
SO GOOD!
The staff is the best!
It was fantastic the instructor was very encouraging and enthusiastic. The studio was a great size and had all of the amenities.
This a very friendly well run well organized studio. I'm a huge fan and attend classes regularly. Parking can be tight when they are busy but there is an overflow lot which I just discovered.
Good class and instructor.
The heat!
Challenging. Rewarding. Wonderful teachers.
Always a great class
Great class last night, good pace and variety. Instructor was clear to hear and positive
I am very grateful for the Hot and HPF classes. Erin, Margo and Mark are amazing skillful teachers. Many thanks!
The teacher (Elise Toth) is great!
I enjoy taking Karen's classes at Ponce. She's prepared and always has an encouraging presence before, during, and after class.
P.S. Would be a 10 if the showers were more clean ... some days the men's showers look worse than one for long haul truckers at a roadside Travel Plaza.
I love the challenge in classes and the come down at the end of class to recenter and relax. The instructors are so great and plan enjoyable flows that make class fly by. I feel strengthened even as the class goes on. My favorite classes are sculpt. i love how loud the music is but sometimes it is difficult to hear the instructors over the volume. I think mics would help our ability to hear the instructors better and maybe not using them at the end of class during the quieter time? Overall I am thrilled I joined core power and can’t wait for more classes!
Was surprisingly a good workout. Sophia , the instructor, had great music, and
made sure everyone was comfortable moving at their own pace
I’m a friend of Lynn’s and one of the instructor was her friend. She had me dying at the end and my body hurts but I feel great. It was a great class overall.
Good workout, clean environment, everything seems well-run
Great studio with extensive selection of classes. The studio manager seems personable, detail oriented and very conscientious which makes the Balston studio experience special.
I started coming to Core Power in Hinsdale a year and a half ago and it has changed everything for me. I love the option of different classes and times. All of the instructors are welcoming as you enter the door every time. I am so grateful to have this in our hometown
I love it so much it has literally changed my life.
Love the instructors!
I always have an amazing experience! This is my favorite place to unwind!!
I drive 30 minutes each way, 3 times per week just so I can join Natalie’s Sunday and Wednesday classes and Ivana’s Saturday class.
In addition to doing a PHENOMENAL job as far as the routine goes, they have really great personalities that motivate me.
Really terrific class!
I haven't been to yoga in a long time. Analeigh was very helpful with her options for different poses as well as helping me into the right position so I wouldn't hurt myself. I really liked the music too.
Varaly is the best!
Stephanie is so good at keeping the class so strong and informative. The music is great and we always learn how to push ourselves 😃

Very intense, but very worth it
