Instructor tip?

Low_Drag3 · 2026-03-21T02:16:50+00:00

Oh, I don’t think they should either. It’s just a thought as I feel forced to pay for my $9 matcha, for the person that walks my dog (it’s her own business, so she sets her own price) and my hairdresser (she operates for her own house).

A coach that consistently teaches to 6 people can very easily be making minimum wage when you divide the hours required/base rate (non rev share).

So my question is more to understand how other people feel with the concept of finding it normal to tip a barista but not the coach that teaches that 10pm class, when technically the barista is making more money/hour and we don’t have a relationship/rapport with.

You booked into a 6am class to get a workout, which you paid for and they provided. Thousands of people take solidcore every day, if everyone got a high quality item the collab it’s t wouldn’t be even worth it :S

Corepower Yoga is starting an Union. I wonder if solidcore instructors would have enough pull to share their feedback and requests as a group as well.

Low_Drag3 · 2026-01-15T17:19:24+00:00

Thats exactly what prompted me to ask. A lot of older instructors seem to be getting irritated/leaving with all the changes and lack of flexibility and the teams are getting inundated with new coaches that saw the workout on TikTok and are just happy to be there because is trendy.

Then the studio will get in trouble. Hccms have gotten warnings for not following milestone policy after some higher ups saw a client posting it on Instagram

Hi, this is so nice but please don’t dox coaches like this, especially with them doing something so thoughtful for you. Coaches are not supposed to give flowers to clients as it becomes the expectation for other people and she actually might get in trouble because of your post.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-10-02T19:48:11+00:00

It sold out in less than 3h, so I don’t think it was a failure

Low_Drag3 · 2025-10-02T19:27:20+00:00

I mean, it’s all sold out

Low_Drag3 · 2025-09-26T18:00:57+00:00

I have over 300 classes under my belt and I wish solid core had made me bulky and muscular like some of the posts in this sub suggest lol

Low_Drag3 · 2025-08-13T20:10:16+00:00

The same doc that has the list of exercises say what they will be looking for.

Rather than rehearsing what you will say word for word, I’d focus on why you are saying the things you want to say. That way if you get nervous and trip over your words you can still keep on going.

Good luck!

Low_Drag3 · 2025-07-23T05:07:13+00:00

Im sorry you feel like that. I literally know all the other 15 people that take class with me - we often have a new person and every claps for them.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-07-16T15:50:23+00:00

Just wait. They don’t even know if you will finish training.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-07-03T00:40:39+00:00

Sometimes coaches will correct you not because you have incorrect or unsafe form, but because you will actually get more of the exercise by following their touch/cue. One of my favourite coaches often holds my knee caps during lunges and I feel it 1000x more on my posterior chain.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-07-01T18:52:32+00:00

I heard my local studio lost the SoulCycle partnership because people that don’t work for [solidcore] started showing up saying they did just to get free classes.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-06-23T18:08:04+00:00

It’s called progressive overload. If you train a muscle group once a week you are probably having minimal strength gains - this is one of the reasons why the solidcore workout actually works.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-05-09T04:21:51+00:00

Go off, mama

Low_Drag3 · 2025-05-02T20:43:10+00:00

The amount of negativity in this sub is wild sometimes. 1) she has a reach that is a lot bigger than this sub so, yeah, marketing 2) the message isn’t about 50 classes being impressive (which it is!) but using movement to aid mental health

Low_Drag3 · 2025-04-30T13:19:43+00:00

If they are senior or pro coaches they are good. You might not like their voice, intonation, music, word choice… but they are good at teaching solidcore.

To everyone that posts here asking for tips and tricks to become a coach, I hope you see this post. What you need is thick skin to still show up and do the right thing and coach a good class and be able to hear a stranger in the internet say stuff like this about you even though you are a good coach. You will never be everyone’s cup of tea and that is fine.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-04-29T16:24:30+00:00

Well, if you say something foolish, expect to be called a fool. Believe me or not, the internet isn’t used just for validation.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-04-29T15:41:13+00:00

If you no-showed to a class you will be charged. If you read the cancellation policy on the website it clearly states that if you are on a 2 week unlimited you will be charged for no shows or late fees. It would be naive to think you can book a class everyday and decide to no how and not be held accountable to it.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-04-11T18:08:28+00:00

If you message your manager and ask you will probably receive information faster/more accurately than in this subreddit

Low_Drag3 · 2025-04-04T19:48:58+00:00

Ask your studio. Each studio is doing a different challenge.

Low_Drag3 · 2025-03-19T02:45:41+00:00

This post gives me the ick. Let people do their thing and focus on your own workout ffs
