I've been a fan of corepower for awhile and I am SO happy that the cap hill location is on ClassPass! I went to a Yoga Sculpt class and damn I missed it! Such an amazing workout if you want the perfect mix of yoga and Pilates with some weights thrown in. Also--this studio is super nice. They have locker rooms and showers upstairs with a downstairs studio. Very spacious and clean. The staff was also super friendly and helpful since it was my first time at the studio and my friend's first time ever. If they continue to stay on ClassPass I will definitely be back! read more

CorePower Yoga - Capitol Hill - Yoga Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The classes are reliable in terms of getting a solid workout. It can be vexing how infrequently their doors are locked and how strict they are re when the doors are open and shut, especially given how lax they are and have been re masking and Covid procedures in general. I guess I'll shop for yoga wear and gear elsewhere. read more

I've only come to this location twice - both times while visiting "back home" during my past few months of nomady-esque living. I love that CorePower is accessible to me wherever I go! This location is on the north end of Broadway, just across the street from the QFC (which I think, not sure because I've always walked here, has parking they'll validate for in the QFC garage). I LOVE that they have a fireplace in the lobby, along with two flavors of warm tea you can pour yourself in to-go cups. It's little touches like that that make you fall in love with businesses. I also appreciate how large the women's locker room is - my main studio has been Walnut St. in Philadelphia and their locker room is SMALL. This place, I feel like I can breathe, towel off and sort through my bag without bumping elbows with someone. Locker rooms are upstairs, FYI, and the one studio room is downstairs. I've only come to two C2 classes here. Once, over Thanksgiving with a teacher that I unfortunately can't remember her name, however I did appreciate the amount of depth and woo-woo'ness added to the class vibes. I'm really writing this review to also give Kirsty amazing props because from the time I entered the studio, literally, to the time I left, I felt SO well cared for and loved. Kirsty was soft and conversational with me when signing in, attentive and informative. Her energy was so "welcome to our home, let us give you the best experience" it isn't even funny. I went upstairs to change, popped back down and she let me know where the hottest part of the room was. PRO TIP: If you go to a location that's on a different coast (West Coast/East Coast), let them know, otherwise you might not show up in the system. PRO TIP 2: If you want to sweat, ask for where the humidifiers are in the room. At this studio, the hottest part of the room is (when you are facing the mirrors) the back right corner. On a scale of 1-10 hot level, I felt like this class was a 7. My one thing with yoga is I actually WANT to be helped. I'm not the person who raises their hand in child's pose to say "don't touch me". No, please, touch me! My body is all sorts of jacked up, I want to deepen those poses and get it right! But more often than not, I don't usually get much attention during class. Kirsty came around to me about 3 times in class, along with everyone else! Granted, it wasn't a full-packed house, but there were still about 15 of us in there. She was soft, gentle and encouraging, especially when I was trying some new poses. I ended up crying at the end during shavasana, which I do in yoga from time to time depending on stress/level of release, and she came over to me to push my shoulders down, rub my neck and place essential oil smell-goodies on my forehead and temples. AHHH amazing!!!! It really helped me calm down, feel grounded and centered. After showering and changing, I came down the stairs and she asked me how I felt about class and gave me some tips to de-stress. I really, really, really appreciated the time and concern she took, and honestly this studio just always feels so calm and peaceful to me. read more

Cancelled my membership since I didn't go often. Found out three months later they were still billing me. Forcing people to call to cancel their memberships and then continuing to bill them is too shady of a business practice. The yoga was alright, classes are a bit too short. The evening classes in Bellevue got pretty crowded, early morning was fine. Pretty pissed about the unauthorized credit card charges though. read more

Great yoga classes, similar to those offered at other core power locations. The classes are a bit spendy, though, as with all corepower classes. I enjoy their sculpt class because it is a great work out, but it is not offered at convenient times for working individuals (9:15 AM and 4:30 PM on weekdays). These both fall in working hours, which make them hard to make. read more

I am a Corepower junkie through and through and have been to various Corepower locations in various states and cities, so I was thrilled to see that there was a Corepower near me on Capitol Hill. I love that you can go into any Corepower and know what you're going to get; this studio is no exception: c1, c2, hpf, etc.! They even have a C3 class which I'm looking forward to taking. This studio is nice and set-up well. The yoga room itself is large and doesn't feel crammed, even if there are a lot of people in class. I did have to dock a star because of cleanliness, sadly. The floor had sweat on it and was dirty (appeared that it wasn't cleaned after the previous class), the mirrors had sweat marks and streaks on them, and the straps used in class smell musty and could use a washing. read more

If you are thinking about Power Teacher training at Capitol Hill - please think carefully and do your research before you sign up. The instructors at Capitol Hill ( refer to my review for U district studio no better there either ) will act friendly and force you to sign up. My experience at Capitol Hill with the new manager Trent N . Almost everytime I took class he kept pushing the teacher training. He completed his teacher training in 2017 and barely has 1 yr of teaching experience which was obvious from his instruction and ignorance about some of the yoga concepts. When I questioned the validity of the information and asked for more details his answer was " just put your money down and do the 60 classes required." I think you have to conduct business in a truthful professional ethical manner without grossly misrepresenting facts and asking for other people's hard earned money. Read below if you want to know more about my experience at this studio went to this studio Fall and Winter 2018. Took both C2 and C3 classes. Please check the schedule up until 5mts before class. If you are going in for a particular instructor you could still end up with a different one who shouldn't be teaching that class and waste your time and money. My experience that put me off CPY capitol hill completely : Went in for Sunday 12 pm C3 class and you are led to believe that the instructor will be fit to teach the class. The instructor Kai-Bin had literally just completed the full teacher training requirements and had been teaching for a few weeks and had taught only a handful of C1 and C2 classes. My issue here is with both the instructor and the studio management. The instructor : This instructor Kai-Bin was arrogant and careless to sign up to teach a C3 class that she was clearly unfit to teach- if she were a yoga practitioner she would know based on her floundering practicelevel to put her ego aside and put the customer's safety first . She had signed up atleast a week prior so this wasn't a spur of the moment decision and she was intentionally misleading the customer. As a customer I feel violated and taken advantage of by this misrepresentation. She doesn't care about the safety of the customer at all and to a certain extent shows a flippant clueless disrespectful attitude to yoga. She should be working on teaching C1 and C2 classes, learning from her mistakes and feedback for a few years at the very least before even looking at a C3 class. The management : There were no checks on whether an instructor is fit to teach a class and someone like Kai-Bin was able to sign up to teach. Instead of just cancelling the class if the regular instructor wasn't available, all they cared about was to keep the class going regardless of the safety, risk of injury and quality of experience of the client and in that way approved her teaching the class. This happened on a couple of more occasions with Kai-Bin and another instructor - to be specific it was Cheyenne ( apparently Cheyenne has a few yrs of teaching experience I can't be bothered to write about her class but the gist of it is she needs to start from the level 1 instead of attempting to teach a c3 class free of falls and injuries) . This to me shows a lack of respect for the clients time and money when you are charging $ 26 / class or 155 / month. read more

I usually don't leave reviews but I've had such a good experience I feel the need to share. I've been going to CorePower for almost 3 years and the best classes I've taken have been at Capitol Hill. Erica C is seriously is the best. Her classes kick your ass in the best way. She's really good at keeping you engaged in class, so time flies. I will literally schedule my days around her class times so I'm sad she doesn't teach more frequently! read more

Through a glitch I actually got two free weeks of yoga, so naturally I'm hooked. That was almost two years ago and I've just discovered their awesome online dashboard, where you can list your favorite instructors and actually send a thank you note. It's an easy-to-use tool that helps you keep track of your progress and how many classes you have left on a punch. Best of all, it's nationwide! Holiday is a GREAT time to buy a punch (5, 10, or 20 classes) because they dock their gift cards by $20. That means you can buy two $100 gift cards and save $40 on your classes, depending on how many you buy. This is a great solution for me because the classes never expire and nobody judges if you haven't been in a while. Honestly this is the least judgy place I've ever practiced yoga. That was a huge barrier to entry for me at other studios, I probably visited 4 or 5 as a drop-in before I committed to CorePower. I started practicing here when I had a concussion so needless to say, inversions were 'not in my practice,' but the instructors are RELENTLESSLY positive and make you feel 100% even if you haven't hit your goals. The only place they really push you is Yoga Sculpt, which is probably my favorite class because of the cardio component. You're welcome to take child's pose when it gets too hot. The openness applies to everything; I've been late countless times and still allowed to join a class. It's really been a lifesaver. I can't say enough about CorePower. Can't wait to take my practice to Denver and Austin next year. Try their studio in Queen Anne as well. read more

Out of all of the CorePower studios that I've been to, I think this one has to be my favorite so far. I came for Hannah's Yoga Sculpt class and it didn't disappoint. I had taken the same class in Orange County a few times and it was hit or miss on how I felt about it. I think the reason why I liked this particular one so much was that she incorporated a great flow while utilizing the weights. It was still yoga and not an intense cardio workout like I've experienced in the past. Don't get me wrong, she'll definitely have your core working, and your heart rate going and she gives great adjustments while doing so. The asana room where the class takes place is pretty large and can accommodate a good amount of people. They have all the weights, blocks and straps that you could need for your practice. If you forget your mat or need to borrow one, they offer rentals for only $2. It's a good mat too, but I suggest getting a towel so you don't slip all over - it's hot yoga of course! The studio also provides locks for you if you want to use their lockers. I love this aspect because I always forget and I was traveling this time around so it wasn't even an option. This way I can bring an extra towel and a change of clothes so I don't look like a sweaty swamp creature walking down the street back to my hotel. The men's locker area was super clean and they had three showers for those that needed a rinse off after class. They provide the soap, shampoo and conditioner in liquid dispensers for your convenience. Just make sure to bring your own towel. They have them to rent, but they'll cost you $1 a piece. Not too bad, especially if you really need one. I'll definitely come back when in Seattle. I really liked the vibe and the people that worked here. Everyone was friendly and it seemed like the community all new each other which was cool. For newbies that have never been to the studio and want to check it out, they offer your first week for FREE! read more

Incredible! Just checked out Core Power Yoga on Capitol Hill and after months of walking past, I finally stepped inside. The clean, modern furnishings are so bright and sleek that you feel good just being in the space. And that's before you even take a class! There's a cute reception area with comfy chairs and even a gorgeous, warm fireplace to greet you and give you warm fuzzy feelings while you're there. They've got yoga gear for sale, mats, and various other products and fun stuff to look at and shop for. The classroom itself is expansive and clean and warm. The largest yoga classes I've been to have hosted about 20 people max and this space (if the class is full) can host up to about 60 people. Incredible! It's great for socializing before/after class, meeting like-minded people, and the instructors walk around the room assisting and teaching so you don't feel like you're ever lost in the crowd. And wanna know what's perhaps the funniest/coolest part? The bathrooms here are INSANE! Don't tell George Costanza but these powder rooms are the nicest I've seen in a long while. Especially for a workout spot! There are clean, bright showers, deep modern sinks, changing areas, lockers, mirrors... It's like the best hotel/spa bathroom meets a yoga studio/gym bathroom. I was absolutely floored at how gorgeous these bathrooms were. I want to sign up for classes just so I can hang out in the bathroom! Oh, yeah - and get fit too :) read more

The most weirdly shaped studio ever. Narrowly long with all kinds of pillars in it. Parking is also so stressful. I mean I know it's Cap Hill, but most of the other locations offer parking/validation. I agree with another reviewer, that the vibe is kinda weird here. Not sure if I'd call it cold or pretentious. As a general review of all CPY that I have gone to (in San Diego and in Seattle): I find most of the CPY teachers competent to the very basic level. Some are more advance than others and have better sequences or can teach a more difficult variation of a pose. However, I can't say this is the norm. It's very cookie cutter at most CPY locations that I have gone to. Sequencing, poses, and teachings often lack innovation. In these classes, I find myself sweating because of the heat (I took level 2 classes), not because of the difficulty of the pose. In my one month unlimited with CPY, I maintained my practice, rather than advanced my practice. Very seldom were my poses adjusted. At the same time, because CPY is a large company, they have many classes/class types to offer for people with busy schedules. read more

CorePower is in dire need of a balanced review. A little yoga pun...Okay, I'll stop the bad jokes. Price: I can't complain. The first week trial is free. In a world where you think all yoga should be free, but not even the first class is these days, it is testament to how highly CorePower thinks of itself that it is willing to risk an entire week of free yoga ($15-20 per class usually) in order to attract new customers. I give them props for that! Class Times: WOW! Impressed. They have more class times than ANY studio I have been to before - morning, afternoon (which so many places miss), and even late evening (8:45 PM!! I'm cozy in bed by then JK). Classes: I started off with the yoga sculpt. I went in thinking "oh, we'll do warrior two with weights." Needless to say when we started doing high knees in 97 degrees I was slightly confused and more than sweaty. If you don't sweat in this class, then you don't have sweat glands. I used light weights as a precaution so I didn't even feel like I was pushing myself much, but just the combination of exercises and heat make you sweat buckets! Jamie taught this class which is like 3/4 weights and 1/4 yoga and tons of pop music. It was a fun (don't make fun of me for using that word) class, but next time I would challenge myself with heavier weights. The second class was the CorePower 1.5 (I guess a mid level class). As a pretty expert yogi having done yoga on and off for about five years at TONS of studios, the class wasn't exactly challenging enough. I wasn't crazy about the flow also as transitions weren't that smooth. CorePower is also more highly focused on the exercise/workout and image of yoga so you won't get that super zen feel following a class. This is my only gripe. Workout - yes. Zen - maybe. Studio: The studio is beautiful! It is all brand spankin new, with crisp clear sound quality, and a to-yoga for locker room complete with post yoga necessities. Anyway, that's it folks. I will definitely return to finish off my free week and analyze a few more classes for a final verdict about whether I will be paying my precious $! read more

I tried out CPY for the first time this past weekend. The studio and changing rooms are really nice Definitely has a cookie cutter/high end feel. Fancy enough to make me feel a little out of place, but I guess that's to be expected from an expensive corporate yoga studio. I wish I liked the yoga more! I've tried a handful of yoga studios with varying levels of heat on Capitol Hill. The heat here is 95 degrees or so. Not the hottest yoga I've tried. A little hotter than I like, but still doable for me. What I couldn't handle was the industrial humidifier going on full blast. That pushed me over the edge. Sweat dripping into my ears, eyes, and nose. It's incredibly difficult to focus on yoga flow when you are choking on your own sweat via your nostrils. I know there are people who like this heat/humidity combo, but it's just not for me. I also wish the instructor was more attentive. The core strengthening moves really hurt my back. I tried to wave her down multiple times to for modifications, but she didn't notice me. I was literally laying there not participating trying to get her attention! I ended up leaving 45 min into a 75 min class, due to the humidity mostly. I won't be returning. Will stick to my regular yoga studio, which has a laid back feel, less heat/humidity, and more attentive instructors. read more

I got to try a class here for free, and you can too- everyone gets a free trial week! The space is looks brand new, with a yoga boutique on the first floor with the classroom and a locker room on the top. The locker space was beautiful, and looked like a great place to clean up after class. They have towels and mats for free (pretty sure they are free). The classroom was a little strange, with an elevator smack in the middle of the front wall. I enjoyed our class, but I think I prefer Bikram yoga to the core power style, which is very sun-salute-chataranga-y (not the technical term). Overall, though, I got a great core workout and would go again. read more

Conflicted about this studio: Lots of pros/cons. They have generous trial weeks, so check it out and decide for yourself! Go into it knowing this is a HEATED studio. Personally, I find the room too hot for me - grossed me out a bit and kept me from focusing on my flow. Pluses: You SWEAT... a lot...so this is probably great for detox. Yoga with weights is a great workout - but not really Yoga flow, it's more a sequence of weighted movements (curls, squats, leg lifts...) connected by yoga terms. Marvin is awesome! Minuses: The floor is perpetually sticky. I never feel centered after class, the focus isn't on your mind for these instructors - they really focus on getting you to sweat. You SWEAT... and so does the person next to you... gets gross trying to stay on your own wet mat... I find that I was focused on trying to keep sweat out of my eyes sometimes rather than the yoga sequence. If someone farts, it's REALLY nasty... this happens... Tips: Do the trial week. Try a variety of classes. See if any of them work for you - the styles are pretty different. Bring water! Bring your own sweat towel! read more

I've practiced at almost 20 different CorePower studios, attended over 300 classes, and this location is most definitely in my top 3. The energy here is amazing, and I can honestly say that Kai is my favorite yoga teacher of all time. He creates and hold the space for you to dive into the depths of your practice, and come out on the other side stronger and more resilient. Thank you CorePower! read more

I think it's because I was coming from their brand spankin new studio in Queen Anne that I wasn't as impressed with this one. It doesn't smell as nice, the floor in the room is sticky, and parking is a biznatch. Music is more popish, I loved the playlists from the instructors in Queen Anne. I think the playlists are dependent on your instructor though. The vibe is different overall. my instructor was nice but got a weird either standoffish/reserved maybe shy? vibe. Not as friendly as I had anticipated. The room breakout is a little odd with the elevator there. Tried the C2 class and was worried for nothing, it was very similar to C1.5. I'd come back since it's closer to where I live, but if I'm not on a time crunch would go the extra distance to their newer studio. read more

Previous to coming here I had been attending Hot Yoga Inc. in Northgate. A friend had gotten me hooked on hot yoga about 2 weeks before this studio opened. I was really excited about having a hot yoga studio within 2 blocks of where I live. It definitely lived up to its expectations. I love the teachers here. All of them have made me feel welcome and understood that I might not be as flexible and capable as some of the students but they pushed me to find MY edge. Some of my most favorite instructors have been Jenny Wade, and Sarah G. With Jenny I feel like she does a lot of hands on adjustments and coaching. I have gotten myself into positions I never knew I could get into. With Sarah her class goes by so quickly and her music really sets the pace! I definitely get an adrenaline high with her music and flow. All the instructors have been great though and I can feel myself improving. I can already see a difference in my body. The studio itself is bright, beautiful and sparkling clean! I love the way it smells in here. I immediately become relaxed just walking in. I look forward to doing drop in rate classes a few times a week! All in all a solid, clean and smell free hot yoga studio in a prime location. I would definitely check it out! Update! Today I happened to take a class with the manager Bryna! Not only was she an awesome instructor but we got to touch base with each other about some possibility of clean for trade! She was also great if you want to feel challenged and experience a few new poses! Thanks Bryna! read more

I went to the C1 class at 9pm last week with Jared and it really moooooooved me. I hadn't been to a yoga class in over 5 years but I found the overall atmosphere very welcoming. Walking away from the class I have been more aware of my body position/ posture in everyday movements. I will definitely be back! thanks for the constructive class Jared!!! read more

I've done yoga at several CPY locations in California, and yesterday was my first time doing it here in Washington. This CPY definitely holds up to the clean, comfortable standards for the space. The studio itself is quite spacious, but oddly has an elevator in the middle of the room that kind of sectioned the room into two. The instructors here were very helpful and welcoming, and they did come around to adjust my positions. The only difference I noticed in my practice yesterday was the fact that I had a difficult time acclimating to the heat, and felt faint barely half way through the practice. In return, I wasn't able to focus on my practice at all, and had to resort to child's pose to keep my composure many times. I'm not sure if that's an indication that they turn their heat up higher, but that's never happened to me in California. I'm hoping to come back again to see how it goes. read more

A bit more of a corporate feel than other yoga studios, but all the instructors are pretty well trained. Class style is focused on physical aspect of yoga with music in the background - though some teachers add commentary, for example about struggling on the mat empowers you to struggle and succeed in life. All classes kick my ass. I'm fairly fit - run 5 miles/bike 20 miles/multiple rounds of the Howe stairs, but every class - at least a dozen so far, I sweat away more than a liter and spend a decent portion horizontal on the mat. Often with only 15 minutes between classes and students transitioning out of the room slowly, the staff have just enough time to dry the floor and not clean the floor's pooled body sweat. Bare feet stick to the floor. read more

Jo, our teacher was amazing. His energy, motivation and delivery were so spot on. The studio room itself wasn't my favorites. The lay out was a bit weird and a bit difficult to see Jo. The music was great but if we did anything to tempo the music was off, which did not make the class flow like it should. The formatting of the class was great and generally easy to follow. There were no cleaning wipes or spray to wipe down your mat after class. Do the weights get cleaned regularly? Overall good experience, just a few small things to focus on and this studio would be a solid 5. read more

I finally tried CPY in Capitol Hill after having a special work event there. The facility is super nice & kept very clean! I've practiced yoga on and off for a couple years now. The event was a C2 level class with Rachel. She was awesome! I especially enjoyed the core exercise in between salutations. The temperature was pretty hot, maybe a little past 100 degrees at times. Definitely one of the hotter studios I've practiced at. Lastly, the merchandise is AMAZING. So many great brands that you can only find online- Free People Movement, Beyond Yoga, Onzie, & Alo! Since I was there for a work event I was given 20% my purchase. Will for sure be back! read more

I go here a few times a week and it really helps me to get centered! They are always friendly and helpful!

This is a very corporate studio. They have policies and will not be flexible even if they make no sense. Support locally owned studios that really care about your membership. This is not a place that supports the core values of yoga. read more

cancelled my membership 6 months ago. just noticed they started billing me again 2 months ago.....understandably it has been very challenging getting a hold of them would recommend the classes read more

I live within walking distance of this place and for the past three years have come here multiple times a week. I have taken class from almost every teacher and I cannot say enough good things. Some yoga studios can feel non-inclusive and a tab snobby, but this Core Power studio is the opposite. I highly recommend! read more

I took a Yoga Sculpt class. This was really intense class and I felt lost. The instructor would say things like "this is your practice" and "I am guiding you" and "go at your own pace." She would then say "let's wait for everyone to catch up" and "let's do it together" and "I won't remind you to get water." I was really confused about positions. There was no help and direction from the instructor on form. I felt like she just wanted to keep the pace really fast. She would jump from one side of the room to the other and not look at anyone's form or anything. I am new to yoga sculpt and having no direction left me feel like a completely loser - I don't like feeling like a loser. read more

I love this yoga studio! It's always clean, the instructors are friendly and compassionate and participate in the class to guide their students. The classes are challenging but achievable. I am also a fan of the level of heat used, I believe it's around 90 degrees which is hot enough to help you stretch better into the poses but not hot enough to make you feel faint. read more

O Corepower, how I used to love you. Unfortunately, it's time for us to break up... Started CP back in San Diego years, my friends, years ago. Trevor (the owner) and his French bulldog were intimately involved in starting the studios and bringing their special brand of then very unique yoga to the scene. This was a great combination of heart pounding vinyasa to beat thumping tracks, great instructors traveling from other studios (shout out to Heather, and Elisa) and a multitude of highly inspired male and female instructors that bought into the cult following that WAS Corepower yoga. For $89 a month you could yoyo it up to your heart's content in Pacific Beach, UVillage, Rosecrans, North Park...man, those were the glory days of Corepower. Fast forward to now. The Capitol Hill studio is run by some very self important, mostly out of shape, novice yogi hipsters. Most of the staff has less than 1 year of practicing and/or teaching experience and they are already adding plenty more kooks into the mix by promoting teacher training to anyone willing to cough up the $. No experience in yoga, NO problem...The blind leading the blind. The mobile website for the schedule does not work. The price list is not posted. The address is incorrect. The parking validation does not work, they don't respond to email, and I've gone to classes 5 minutes before to find the door already locked...really folks? The instruction is marginally average to below average, the attitude (cooler than school) is annoying given the out of shape and beginning yogi experience of the instructors. The workout tends to be watered down, with a high reliance of heat to make you feel like you're sweating it out do to physical activity. Not healthy...you want to build an internal fire that cleanses and restores, inside out and not the other way around. If you're peddling yoga on Capitol Hill, you better come correct and these folks, just nope! Trevor, where are you???? The hipsters are running your brand straight into the ground...I think you need to slow down on the rate of studio openings my friend. TIPS: Go to Live Love Flow, or Shakti Vinyasa. read more

I was out on a walk with a friend and walked in to pick up a second yoga mat so I can leave one at work to practice yoga on my lunch break. The cashier was snotty and had a holier-than-thou attitude when she refused to sell me the yoga mat that I had seen in the window display as I walked past...which was the whole reason that we walked in there to begin with! This is the last place I would ever spend money on yoga classes...the way the cashier treated me made me feel completely unwelcome. Had I signed up for the stupid class, I doubt I would have felt welcome when I attended it. No thanks...I'm sure REI sells yoga mats...I can go pick up a second one there and give my money to a business who doesnt make their potential customers feel unwelcome like the Broadway CorePower Yoga did to me. read more

Calls are routed to some corporate office that doesn't answer. Tried three times. Not impressed. Will be sticking to Sweatbox.
