CorePower Yoga - UWS 70th & Broadway

I love the classes at the studio. I have been visiting for over 2 years now. Kat and Tasha are some of my favorite instructors here. After their classes, I feel like I can accomplish anything in the world. I don't care so much about other facilities as I do about the class experience. But lately I have been experiencing that the acoustics in the sculpt room have been affecting my yoga practice in the Yoga Sculpt class room. Not sure if there has been a recent re-installation of the speakers or of it's new set of speakers or something else. But the music on the left side of the room (closer to the entry door) tends to get really really loud (It's definitely more than the healthy hearing levels). I recommend a sound decibel level testing be done in that room, and a max limit is set based on the healthy hearing level. If there is a need for the music to be that loud, I recommend sharing hearing protection ear buds at the beginning of the classes. I have been visiting the studio for over 2 years and the music definitely wasn't an issue before, but some new change that has happened recently is affecting it.

Booked a class on Classpass, turned up on time but was told there was no more space in the class so I was turned away. The staff assured me they would contact Classpass so I wouldn't be charged the credits or for a missed reservation. However, I got charged the entire 31$ missed reservation fee. This has created so much hassle. I am upset that I was wrongfully charged and unable to attend at my original time.

The classes here are awesome, I cannot speak highly enough of the instructors. But, the facilities need a facelift… the lockers are falling apart, the studio ceiling was dusty/grimy, and the floorboards are all dinged up. Great instructors, not so great location.

I've been to countless yoga studios around the tri-state area and overseas, and I have to say - not a great place at all. The place is filthy- grimy mirrors, dirty carpet. For an UWS yoga place, I'm highly disappointed. While the instructor was super nice and gave a great class, the music is way too loud and doesn't transition from start to finish, so there is definitely no zen feeling of rejuvenation after...and this is with stating on the website that the Playlist is curated...hmmm not sure how fast rock/pop is curated, just had a headache after - not to mention kids running around loudly somewhere during Savasana. If you're looking for the whole yoga experience-this isn't it.

By far my favorite cpy studio in the city! The instructors are so good at giving directions that you can take classes with your eyes closed and just rely on their guidance. Melba, Tasha, Leah, Daniella, Allison B and Jamie F have some of the most challenging sculpt classes in the studio but the energy in the class and sweat makes it worth it!! Their classes include some or all of these: one legged flows, a boxing or kicking sequence cardio sequence, and a full lower body and squat sequence. But I always modify as/if needed and sometimes just use body weight! Irla B, Grace V, and Isabella C have some of the BEST 45 min sculpt classes!!! Their classes include some or all of these: integrating cardio into each flow, balancing sequences and flows that integrate core, and great music. They are all great at working all of your muscles early in the morning in the name of self love.
