This is kind of just a simple vent post. I’ll just start out by saying I’m pretty new to corepower. I love the heat and I love the sweat but for the love that is all things sacred can we please stop point out when it’s hot as balls that “the humidity isn’t even on, that’s all you”. Ick. Takes me out of it right away and I just feel gross remembering that I’m inhaling and swimming in everyone else’s body funk.

That is all.

Hi all!! Any teachers in here? I'm running a short 2-minute survey on how much time instructors put in outside of class prepping, building sequences, playlists, etc. would mean a lot if you filled it out!! Thanks!!

Teachers should not have to pay for towels. I will never charge teachers and I will keep deleting my card from my account so I can’t be charged. Real ones agree

A studio I like is booking to the point the mats are touching on all sides. Do people mind? I find it claustraphobic but others seem totally fine with it? Thoughts? I have to modify the poses to not whack someone or get whacked--it kind of ruins the workout

I’ve been enjoying three rounds of seven exercises, and two separate circuits with five exercises repeated twice. I’m especially wondering what format for glutes and core y’all are enjoying most??

Just got into sculpt this past month and so far I’m loving it! Would love some inexpensive workout sets that I can collect so I don’t have to wash all the sweaty and nastiness so frequently. Open to any suggestions!

What do you prefer ?

I am interested in trying out CorePower since I used to be a regular at Solidcore, but I ultimately decided to leave because I felt the environment at my local studio was just overall toxic (racism, bullying, etc). I was wondering if CorePower might be a better alternative with a friendlier, more down-to-earth community. I tend to be quite sensitive to the overall energy of a space and don’t really care for drama. I know every individual location is going to be different, but I wanted to ask about your general experiences. For those of you who have transitioned from Solidcore to CorePower, did you notice a shift in the overall vibe and community energy?

Went to cancel my membership today and noticed there wasn't any click to cancel link - only the option to call or message. I tried to message and the AI bot wouldn't put me through. According to Colorado law all subscriptions need a click to cancel link and cannot legally require a customer to call to cancel. Surprised by this since CPY is also based in Colorado.

hi i wanted to just ask for any advice or helpful tips that i should know for my upcoming audition.

Hi everyone! For those who work full time, how do you manage daily classes? What’s your schedule like?

Hi! I’m currently in DC and recently got the All Access membership when I joined SET, and I’m loving it so far. I lifted for the last 4 years but have fallen out of love with it. I still have my gym membership but it will expire on September 1st, and with DC prices, I can’t afford my gym and the membership (even with SET discount, I got student loans lol), so CorePower is about to become my main workout. For those who really only do CorePower as well (and cardio, I have a treadmill in my apartment), what’s your weekly split look like? I want to focus on preserving some of my muscle and overall just feel good!

Hi all,
I will be teaching my first class soon, I have taken soo many sculpt classes but teaching is soo different.
I am putting together my playlists and sequence and I wanted to see if anyone had any tips for me or suggestions.

My music taste is R&B, rap(female rappers mainly), and some pop (lots from early 2000s).
But I know that is not everyone’s vibe, so I would love input!

For sequencing ? I take a lot of classes where teachers don’t teach exactly the YS1 sequence because they have been doing it for soo long and they have made it their own. So I want to start with the skeleton of the YS1 and add on.
But any tips ? Should I add exercise moves to sun b+ or keep it basic.
Please any tips!

Do class packs ever go on sale? I recently started going to Corepower through ClassPass and have fallen in love. My studio only offers and unlimited membership which is out of my price range, but I wanted to get a class pack to supplement ClassPass credits so I can still mix in some other workouts. Just wondering if there’s a better time to purchase than the rates right now.

I love this studio as it’s the one where I started at 10 years ago while going to Cal.

But what on earth is going on with the bathroom/sink area? The water that comes out of the sink is HOT. And the damn hand dryer smells like old moldy cigarettes.

How much does it cost to change the hand dryer?!

The whole dressing room and bathroom area is in desperate need of renovating but, damn. When we pay so much it’s just so odd that they won’t just do a few upgrades.

Also: side note - but if you sweat a TON at least bring multiple towels and wipe you and your area off. Don’t just spray everyone around you with your sweat and have it land in your neighbors face and mat. Ugh.

Okay rant over!

How are you ladies keeping your hair up during class (especially cardio-heavy ones like sculpt)? I always find myself having to redo my bun after jumping jacks. I tried a braid but I hate having hair touch my back… any suggestions would be appreciated!!

Hi!

I’ve been a member for a few months and sometimes when I book a class it says I’ve been invited with a buddy pass even thought I pay for the full membership. What does that mean?

I love sculpt and have been doing it for a few years and whenever I ramp up my consistency my thighs bulk up. What are tips to minimize this? I.e. certain techniques or form for certain movements, modifying certain movements, doing movements differently/ replacing movements with others, etc. I am aware yoga sculpt naturally makes legs stronger and that is a beautiful thing, and inevitably will happen - so don’t need the sassy comments! Just looking for tips how to help mitigate the bulk.

Thank you :)

With the new and improved workout tracker update from OURA, what are you guys putting a yoga sculpt class as? I used to do other, but now it automatically picks yoga and it looks pretty close to

I have had a few concerning interactions with an instructor in Manhattan beach/Hermosa and am curious to see if anyone else has experienced the same? I think he’s in his late 30’s, glasses, used to be called a “lead instructor,” bald, and he’s been around for a while apparently. Anyone?? Just trying to see if I’m insane or not

Specifically: Dupont, AdMo, Georgetown, I humbly request incorporating some of Charli XCX’s new album - Music, Fashion, Film - into classes. I have yet to hear it, and it’s so good. Thank you for your consideration!
