*WARNING: SAFETY AND HEALTH RISKS/BODILY INJURY DUE TO UNEDUCATED INSTRUCTORS WITH THESE STUDIOS * Took Katie's yoga sculpt class Sunday morning at 9:30am and it was not what at all what was described. Yoga sculpt is really just VERY INTENSE PILATES with an instructor that really didn't do anything to make sure people were safely instructed on what to do during the class, especially handling free weights or giving bandwidth in this class to flow back into your breath. *Also the music was wayyy too loud.

Absolutely won't be going back to her class or any of the core powers because it seems they hire very under qualified "yoga and pilates instructors" (maybe even kids with just online certifications). FIND ANOTHER WORKOUT/...

They charge outrageous prices without paying their teachers or studio managers living wage. They advertise as a ”community” yoga studio when it is absolutely not. This is a purely for-profit corporation that does not have the best interest of the its members, or any of the teachers which are the heart and soul...
