Wonderful for Students, Exploitative for Instructors - Yoga Instructor CorePower Yoga Employee Review

Pros

CorePower is a beautiful studio with very nice facilities for students. Unlimited packages are reasonable in an expensive market, and the staff go out of their way to make new and returning students feel welcome and appreciated. Discounted membership for full-time teachers, seniors, and armed-forces personnel is a great benefit and is not often found at other studios in the area.

Cons

The only problem with CorePower Yoga is that instructors are very much underpaid. Teachers in premium markets are receiving $15/hour, with one hour for class and a half hour on each end of the class to check-in students, sell merchandise, and sign up new members. Any time spend staying past those two hours (helping out at the desk, handling a rush of check-ins, etc.) is not counted for compensation. The teachers and staff are conscientious, well-intentioned individuals who truly love to share yoga with their students, so it is unfortunate that they are not reasonably compensated for their time and energy.

Pros

Strong community and culture, benefits include mental health, lots of PTO, flexible schedule, lots of growth opportunities

Cons

managers are typically the scapegoats for problems both by SSC/corporate and the students/clientele, low salary compared to high stress environment, on call all the time, expected to teach 4 classes - lead teacher trainings - own all operations - coach/hire/lead massive team of teachers (40+) - membership sales - schedule opp in a 40hr work week (usually ends up being more).
