In 2022, it opened seven new studios, with four new locations scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2023. The brand enrolled 170,000 new members in-studio in 2022, honing on its digital presence to continue to expand their reach.[1] [2] [3] The company was founded by Trevor Tice in 2002.[2] [3] CorePower Yoga offers various formats of yoga, such as their signature C2 class, Yoga Sculpt, Hot Power Fusion, and occasional bootcamp style classes. Each studio features heated practice rooms, a retail shop, changing areas, and day lockers. [4]
