  This was by far the worst yoga class I have ever experienced, and for multiple reasons. What was supposed to be a C2 was a weird chaotic non-flowing order of poses. There was more childs pose than anything.... sorry, but I don't go to C2 to rest. And the teacher began with a peak pose, which is totally inappropriate. There were twice as many people in the space as was appropriate... I had all of 3 inches between my mat and any of the mats around me, making it impossible to just be in my practice because any element of movement caused people to bump into one another. It was gross. In 20 years of being a yogi, I have never left a class early until this one. I requested a refund and Core Power refuses to refund my purchase. Awful experience.

  I took D’Andre’s heated C2 flow at CorePower Manhattan Beach, and it was one of those classes that stays with you…not just physically, but internally. This is an intermediate class in both heat and movement. The music set the tone right away, starting with “For What It’s Worth” by Buffalo Springfield and building from there (BIG smile). From the beginning, D’Andre framed the practice around calm as the foundation — not calm as stillness, but calm carried through dynamic movement. What stands out the most is the pacing. The sequence kept changing just enough that you couldn’t go on autopilot. I noticed my own tendency to want to memorize and “take over,” and that simply just wasn’t possible here. It became a presence game: Stay with the breath, stay with what’s actually happening. Throughout the class, D’Andre kept pointing us toward the balance between effort and ease. In the longer holds and closing poses, he emphasized steady breath as we moved deeper — finding the edge and softening into it at the same time. His guidance was definitely speaking to something deeper than just physical form, and it was a reminder that the breath naturally points us toward our higher qualities, on and off the mat. Simply put: This is an equanimity practice — and the breath is the bridge to that balance. Practical notes: Plenty of mall parking, free blocks and straps, lockers with built-in locks, water station; plus showers and amenities like deodorant, mouthwash, Q-tips, and hair dryers. Fun note: It happened to be my 555th class at CorePower (such a fun milestone)!

  Great studio, my only thing I would change is if they could do a quick mop in between classes. I pretty much always come into class and there’s a puddle of sweat from the class before 😟
