Core Power Yoga – Scottsdale Arizona

ABOUT CORE POWER YOGA

We started out with a belief that yoga can transform you—on and off the mat.

When a serious climbing accident left him with six permanent screws in his shattered ankle, CorePower Yoga Founder and CEO Trevor Tice experienced first-hand the transformational benefits of yoga. An avid outdoorsman from Telluride, CO, Trevor was left searching for an exercise to replace the running, climbing and other physically challenging activities that were no longer accessible to him. He found yoga, and was hooked.

Traveling for his technology business, Trevor practiced a variety of yoga disciplines at yoga studios across the country and found an opportunity to make yoga dynamic, challenging and convenient.

In 2002, Trevor opened the first CorePower Yoga studio on Grant Street in downtown Denver, CO, offering a proprietary form of athletic, heated yoga in modern, welcoming and spa-like studios. With six teachers, including Trevor, teaching four classes per day, it took several arduous months before classes began to fill up. But they did. And it wasn’t long before people were talking about this new yoga.

Equal Justice Initiative

In 2020, through donation-based classes, online shop sales and matching company funds, we donated more than $25,000 to the Equal Justice Initiative, a non-profit organization that works to end mass incarceration, excessive punishment and racial inequality. In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., in January 2021 we raised $15,000 for EJI through donation classes and our own company contribution.

Dress for Success

We're proud to support Dress for Success, a global not-for-profit organization that empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing support and the development tools to thrive in work and in life and have raised over $17,000 to further their important work. Over 70% of their members identify as BIPOC, and were often the ones who were most impacted during the COVID pandemic.
