I had a horrible experience here, everyone is super rude especially the manager, Glo. Definitely do not recommend. I'm a minor and did not have ID but my parents had confirmed my age and they still did not believe me. Go somewhere else for a workout class, this was truly so disappointing as I paid for this class and everythin. read more

I was blown away by teacher Krista Morey! I have been taking workout classes almost daily for the past 20 years and I have to say that Krista is one of the best teachers I have ever had. World-class professional. She deserves all the credit! I can't say enough how amazing of a teacher she is! read more

Oh man. I wish I had read the reviews before signing up for the free week of classes. Echoing some of the other Yelp reviewers, it really does smell bad in here. As soon as you walk in you're greeted with a combination of smoke (maybe incense or sage that has gone bad?), BO, and other grossness. I also happened to be in a space near another classmate who seemingly wasn't wearing deodorant, and it was making my nose and eyes burn throughout the entire class. I know places like SoulCycle post a reminder on the wall to practice good hygiene, so it might be a good idea to have a similar reminder posted here. Even with the overpowering, awful smell aside- the studio just seems really, really dirty. There are scuff marks all over the studio wall, it doesn't seem like they sweep/mop/swiffer (and since everyone is barefoot and the studio is heated, it seems like a breeding ground for bacteria). I usually go to pilates classes, SoulCycle, and Barry's where they're pretty diligent about keeping the studios clean, and after taking this class here I realized that a clean studio is something I'm willing to pay extra for. I kept my belongings with me instead of putting them into a locker, so I cannot speak to the cleanliness of the lockers. After just one class, I cancelled the rest of my free week. I've been to one other Corepower studio previously, I believe in either Emeryville or Oakland, and had a wonderful experience at that location, so it seems like Corepower locations are just hit or miss (and this one is a gigantic miss). read more

Oof, hot yoga is a struggle for me. But I love trying new workouts and Thalia's class was a great blend of yoga flows and strength movements. While I find following "choreography" difficult, the instructor moved around the room so we could all see the movement. Overall I had a great experience and the facility had lockers and showers which I always think is a plus if you have to go to work after and need time away from your phone. read more

I know it's a small space compared with other CPY location but end up coming here more often because of excellent yoga instructors like Gillian Rebecca and Michaela. I get the most sweaty work out on their yoga sculpt class, really appreciate them for that. read more

One of my favorite CorePower Yogas locations. It's small for most but the right size for me. The staff are pretty friendly and have nice soothing voices to get you calm, relaxed and enjoy your yoga. Bathroom is super clean which I love. If you're looking for some yoga and a little bit more intimate space less crowded this is a place for you read more

-Instructors are quite good -Studio, locker area, bathrooms are very small, it is claustrophobic -The class I took this week was shoulder to shoulder, way too packed -The studio was overly hot and stuffy, I have never sweat so much in my life I have given this studio a couple tries now, will not be returning. Just too cramped and the classes are done in at sauna temperatures, it is overkill read more

WHAT A STINKY DUMP! You're supposed to do yoga in here?? I thought that going to a Core Power Yoga studio in the prestigious Town & Country Village in Palo Alto would be an upscale and high quality experience. Instead, here's what you'll get: 1. Upon entry, an overwhelming BLAST of a nasty hot and humid smell of sweaty feet, BO, and mildew, so overpowering that, if you're like me, you will choke, gag, and be unable to breathe for several seconds. The staff claimed it was from the cleaning chemicals - ummm, not unless you haven't dumped out the mop water for a year and are using it to wash all the walls! Which seems unlikely because you'll observe.... 2. Walls (and the overall space) that are covered in grime and the facilities in general are really gross and give the feeling of having never been deep cleaned. Confirmed when I saw a nasty brown stain in my locker. The space is also tiny - they must have signed a lease for Town & Country's cheapest, smallest, back alley footprint meant for trash pickup. 3. A dirty bathroom with a laughable set up - mismatched, dirty, rusty containers for a few tampons and cotton swabs and a questionable hairdryer in an ugly wire basket on the ground. I've been to women's bathrooms in Crossfit gyms that are much nicer than this. 4. A broken drinking fountain/machine. The temperature of the studio was 94 degrees and no water? 5. A studio with super low ceilings, AND taped markings that indicate that mats should be a mere inches away from each other - what?? How can you do yoga when you're expected to be crammed in like cattle? Thankfully, my class was not overcrowded, and the only saving grace of the entire experience was that the teacher, Tami, led a great class. However, overall it was a super gross and dirty experience and I won't be coming back. And judging from the reviews written here (that I should have read before going), the owner is aware of how poorly this studio is yet no changes have been made. read more

Happy to find a CorePower in the area.. This place is pretty conveniently located in the back of the shopping center and was pretty easy to park and get in. Overall the place is pretty clean and well maintained, with the biggest concern here being the size of the studio. It's super tiny and cramped, with a tiny hallway lined with lockers, and small changing area, etc. There is a single medium sized yoga room, so it isn't as fully featured as other locations. I'd recommend just going home to shower and change. With all that said, 4 stars because facilities were new, yoga room was solid with good heat for yoga, and instructor Valeria was really great! read more

As many have mentioned, this studio is overcrowded with low ceilings and fluorescent lighting. When the instructor turned off the lights during sirvasana, we were left with a series of bright green ceiling lights shining right into our eyes. The props in the back are disorganized. I did not enjoy my experience practicing in this studio at all. That said, the classes and instructors are fine. But due to the uninviting space, I will not be returning to this location. read more

After waiting ever so patiently for classes to resume, I was lucky enough to take one their re-opening week. Covid-safe practices strictly enforced. Such a good burn! Traditional practice mixed with light hand weights, great music, with a hefty dose of warmth. read more

I joined Core Power Yoga a month ago and experienced a variety of new class formats, some of which have become my favorites. I especially like yoga sculpt classes by Melanie W and Bronweyn. Both of them give clear instructions together with great tips on avoiding injury and utilizing dumb bells properly. C2 classes by Edna are also a favorite with well-balanced flows and sequences, in addition to more advanced poses. I recently accompanied a novice friend in attending Amit's C1 class. He was great in providing options for both beginners and experienced students. I thought it may be boring me, Amit changed my mind about C1 class. The late afternoon and evening class times fit me best. The studio location at Town & Country is quite ideal. Parking is not difficult. There are several eateries nearby and grocery shopping afterwards is convenient at Trader Joe's. read more

I found corepower through class pass! I love how small and intimate the studio is. The people who work there are very nice and the workout is amazing. Will be back! read more

It's great to see a CorePower Yoga branch open up in Palo Alto. Before, you either had to go all the way south to San Jose or north to San Mateo. As expected from CorePower, the staff is friendly, the studio is clean and there are a variety of interesting classes offered. Jackie is the studio manager and she's great. It's located in the charming plaza on Embarcadero and CA-82. That means that there are plenty of things to do there before or after your class. The only potential downside of this specific CorePower location is that it's compact and the changing rooms are small, individual ones. Allison was our C1 instructor and she was amazing despite this being only her second class ever; you really couldn't tell. She was on point, very cheerful and energetic. read more

Omg what happened to this place? I used to come religiously pre pandemic times. I recently visited for a yoga sculpt class in the afternoon and the studio is a mess. It's dirty and has a nasty smell. On top of that, they squeezed like 45 people into one class which is so gross and unsanitary- we are all on top of each other. I left early and will not be returning. read more

I love CorePower Yoga studios elsewhere...just not this one. The smell (I don't know if it's from mold, mildew, rust that was on the exit doors, or chemicals) in the small studio triggered my asthma-I couldn't do class it was so bad. And the low ceiling was not the best for tall people! read more

The teacher for the class did a very good job, but there is a bad smell in this studio. It smells like it could be a weird mix of chemicals, metals and even faint cigarette smoke, but hard to identify what it is from. I won't return to this studio due to the smell. I've been to the Redwood City and Santa Clara location and they did not have the bad smell at all. read more

I was very disappointed in this studio as I had high hopes. It's extremely small, everyone is squeezed in a hallway trying to get in and out of lockers before and after class. There are no locker rooms only 2 private restrooms so if you need to change you have to wait. There was a shower in there also so if someone is showering you can't use the restroom or change. The floor from the lockers to the studio felt gross walking on. Not sure if it was clean. The actual yoga room itself is a decent size but I felt very claustrophobic in there, literally felt like I was in a prison, you are surrounded by 4 walls and the lights inside reminded me of fluorescent lights in an office. Not exactly the relaxing experience I want after spending an 8 hour day at work in an office. It just felt stuffy in there. I wanted to wash my hands afterwards but again you can't because the single bathroom. I think they could have picked a better location to put a studio in. This is night and day compared to the other CorePower studios in the Bay Area. Honestly I can't really even rate the teacher I had because all these things were distracting. I'm giving 2 stars because I did get a sweat in and I'm not gonna blame the teacher. But I wouldn't pay to go to this studio again. read more

What a total waste of our precious weekend time!! Busy weekend and I moved things around to attend the Sat 2/29 @8:15 at Palo Alto location. Arrived 10mins early and already saw a large group waiting outside. We checked the website and the class was still on schedule We waited, waited, waited... until 8:30 am. we called the main office and were put on hold for a long time, we gave up. I typically go to the Santa Clara office and love it there. I live 10mins away from Palo Alto office and thought it give it a try. Never again. Emergency happens. Wish management team have a better communication plan in place to support instructors, by updating the website, send a backup instructor, etc. read more

Rude employees and woefully overcrowded--probably one of the worst yoga and workout classes I've ever taken.

Core Power has great instruction, but this studio is my least favorite of all CP studios (Almaden, Winchester, Santa Clara). The studio is so small and there is literally no locker room. Also, there's only one shower. To make matters worse, the one shower is in the same room as a toilet. So if you need to pee or shower or both, you'll need a lot of patience to wait your turn or you'll have to let someone use the toilet as you shower. This makes it very difficult to fit a class in a busy schedule. I've always liked CP because of their locker rooms, which have afforded me the option to not drive home and shower after a class. read more

As the chain goes this has to be one of the worst locations. Just one studio, INCREDIBLY claustrophobic tiny room, ceilings so low I can touch them, no windows and a strong stench of metallic I don't know what... sweat? Paint? It's almost unbearable -it's as if no fresh air has been in that room, ever. I've tried it three times now and officially give up. I'll drive the extra 12 minutes to the Redwood City location from now on. Ownership should look around at the other available spaces in T&C there must be a better option. read more

Great location, decent classes, a bit tight on space but hey you're in one of the cutest shopping centers in palo alto. There are free yoga classes if you're a stanford student at Avalon studios, and I think the class fee is pretty reasonable compared to this place. The clothing on display on the inside is overpriced but very cute and definitely competes with lulu lemon for the quality of the materials. You shouldn't have a problem finding this place- look for orange! read more

CorePower Yoga - Palo Alto Town & Country - Yoga Near Me - Palo Alto, California

CorePower Yoga is a great place to practice!!! Even though I was new to yoga, the instructors were very warm and friendly and quickly got me up to speed. I enjoy their corepower, yoga sculpt, and corerestore classes. Every class is a fantastic time in it's own way, and I always walk out feeling good! It's also in a great location in Town and Country! read more

I like that the studio is small and intimate. There is also something very cool about the young energetic vibe in this studio. Some studios are so cold but most are friendly. Now PALO ALTO on the other hand is super friendly almost has a club feeling to the yoga sculpt class I took! The C2 class I took after was chill and relaxing. I love that the teachers guide the class because sometimes I want to do my own thing a little and there is so much freedom to do that. The room was about 5 degrees cooler than I like at CPY. If you have never tried CPY the thing I like is I can go to any of their studios around the USA and I have been to like 12 studios now. I am a big fan and a BTM. read more

Went for first time in my life yesterday and i am in LOVE. I did the beginner w weights and hot room. It was 100 times better than bikrom Yoga soooo clean and amazing energy. Going to continue to go. read more

Well it is Palo Alto so not really expecting a huge studio. I'm not complaining about the small space as long as it does it's work and I can have my workout done. My only concern is that I guess it's hard to recruit yoga teacher?? The quality of classes is inconsistent. Some classes are good, some classes are barely a "meh". Still, pretty happy it's open and much closer to me than going to San Mateo before. Just need to try out which teacher i like read more

This location is tight on space for changing. I recommend to be changed before going to class. Jade Xiao is an instructor at my work. She has been very helpful with my recovery from my motorcycle accident. The class is always enjoyable and fun! I love to take her class at this location. The extra heat of corepower Is welcome change from the a/c at work. read more

I really loved the class and the teacher! But it is a huge shock from the other studios I have gone to (Berkeley, Winchester, Santa Clara, etc)- just be prepared for tiny space, no locker room (just a locker hallway with 3 little changing rooms for men/women). I don't mind the small space once I got use to it, but it was pretty dirty. I have to put my shoes in the cubby holes in the hallway, and by the time I walk to the room my feet feel super gross (bathroom floors are much worse too) which then transfers to my mat that I lay on :-( Also- anyone know how they clean they weights? Once again- teachers I liked, just cleanliness not so much. read more

This is the absolutely smallest of the CorePower studios that I have been too. There is NO locker room for women or men at all. NONE. It totally sucks! There are only three toilets inside three locked bathrooms. One toilet for men. The other two are for women. BUT there is only ONE single narrow shower stall inside one of the women's locked bathrooms with a toilet. So you really can't take a shower without people knocking on the door and getting mad that they cannot use the toilet, change, or use the shower. And someone might have to urinate in the same locked bathroom if you leave the door open while you are taking a shower, and as a nice person you have to leave it open so that you can let other people change clothes. So as a woman you have to wait and wait for one of the two women's locked bathrooms to open up so that you can change, pee or shower. One of the guys left his clothes inside the men's bathroom and he had to wait 20 minutes for the guy inside to unlock it after he took a shower! I helped him knock on the door to get the inside guy's attention so that he was aware someone was patiently waiting to get his clothes inside! Totally inconvenient. I left class early just to use one of the bathrooms since I knew it would be crazy. I couldn't take a shower since the one I used didn't have a shower. And the one with the shower was being used and locked for twenty minutes. So I had to quickly wash my face, change and leave. I was so sweaty since I couldn't shower. They had a mouthwash dispenser but no cups to dispense it into, so that was useless. :( read more

Studio is small. Classes are right after each other because just one studio, so no time to get centered on the mat after class. No real locker rooms so people changing in the hallway or the single toilet/ shower. Not classy! And not on brand for Core Power - the 11 other studios I've been to around the country make black tag worth it with higher end facilities. Teacher is very good, as usual at Core Power, but that's table stakes now I think for busy people. Bummer that it doesn't live up to Core Power standards. read more

I really wanted/needed to like this studio, but NO. It's extremely small and you're shoved against a ton of people just trying to get something into a locker while other people are leaving class. No place to change. I mean there is a tiny, one person room, but forget it. It's nice that they offer so many classes, but you go into the studio during an evening class and if FEELS SO GROSS. It's drenched in sweat with a ton of people every class and someone runs a mop over it quickly and it just feels sticky and nasty and muggy. There's INSANELY overpriced, and have the nerve to charge for mats and TOWELS with the amount they charge. The instructors are decent, buts it's just an overall terrible experience and extremely overpriced. read more

I haven't seen bathrooms this dirty since I lived in a college dorm. Forget about taking a class before work because there is only one woman's shower, so you will have to wait or run out of class early to claim it. Some of the teachers are great, but the studio is cramped, crowded, and dirty. read more

Arrived less than two minutes past class time and while there were four people in the front room about less than 5 feet away, no one acknowledged me or my friend's gentle knocking, questioning faces and just glared and ignored us. Understood that there are cutoff times for class, but that felt extremely rude and I'm very disappointed. Have been a CorePower student at the Santa Clara location for over a year with no such issues. read more

This studio has the best instructors of all other corepower yoga locations.ive tried several classes and all the instructors were consistently good. However the good things end there. The studio is filthy. There is a door in the studio that is kept shut but dust and dirt from the street flows in with every breeze I to the studio through the gap in the bottom of the door. At any given point in time, there is hair, lots of dirt and tons of sweat puddles. Obviously in heated studios people sweat a lot but there is no consistent cleaning in between the classes. Sometimes they come in with a mop and sometimes they don't. Students line up to get a good spot and jump in before they have a chance to clean for the next class because the whole process isn't streamlined. Someone should prevent people from going in before the room is cleaned. And of course all the weights and blocks are put in between sweaty palms and thighs are just put back there for the next class. I can't imagine the bacteria that grows in this environment. Also, two one-person bathrooms are not enough for the crowd that needs to change before the class. It's a narrow hallway and tons of traffic either getting to pass by or getting in line for the restrooms. I cancelled my membership with corepower yoga because 200 dollars a months is way too much for this level of studio management no matter how good the actual class. read more

This studio is tiny, cramped, and way overpriced for the quality of the space and teacher experience and expertise. Don't go here if you want quality yoga instructors in a spacious environment for a price that matches what you get. read more

I've been going to CPY in San Jose area and went to the Town & County CPY for the first time tonight. While the teacher I had was good, we did some neat poses I've never done before that was cool, the space itself is very awkward that I thought other yogis should know about as I wish someone had told me before I went. There are no dressing rooms. There is one single bathroom, one single men's shower and one single women's shower. 3 spaces! The lockers are in the hall so there is zero privacy. I was so worried throughout class that I wouldn't get a shower that I couldn't fully relax, and I left about 10 minutes early as I saw someone else leave early to use one of two showers in the entire facility. I didn't like that there were no locker rooms at all and the shower situation is so sparse -- it makes it hard to ever think about going before work. I do love the other studios in San Jose, I'm disappointed this one doesn't have the same level of amenities that I definitely won't be rushing back anytime soon, sadly. read more
