Our Core Values & Vision for 2025

By Community Feature

Empowering Communities into Action

As we move into 2025, the unification of Cleveland Yoga and Power Yoga Collective brings renewed energy and a shared mission to Empower Communities into Action. What does that look like in our studios and beyond? Let’s delve into the core values guiding our journey and how they elevate our vision for the future.


Core Values: The Heartbeat of Our Community

  1. Speaking Straight
    In our studios, honesty is the best policy. This means transparent communication with students, teachers, and staff—fostering relationships built on trust. Whether it’s sharing feedback about a class or opening up about personal goals, we value genuine conversations that inspire growth.
  2. Listening Generously
    True connection starts with real listening. When we hear each other’s perspectives, we create space for empathy, understanding, and collective progress. In every class and community event, we aim to make people feel seen and heard.
  3. Honouring Commitments
    From showing up on time to delivering on promises, honoring commitments reinforces accountability. In our yoga practice, we cultivate discipline and presence; in our community, we strive to do the same, ensuring each person can count on us for consistency and reliability.
  4. Being For Each Other
    Imagine a community where everyone roots for everyone else. That’s our aim. Whether you’re a new teacher finding your rhythm or a student exploring yoga for the first time, we stand as allies in each other’s success and well-being.
  5. Acknowledgements & Appreciation
    Gratitude is a powerful force. It transforms the mundane into the meaningful. We regularly celebrate milestones—like a student conquering a challenging pose or a teacher’s anniversary with the studio—to shine a light on the everyday triumphs that knit us together.
  6. Diversity & Belonging
    Yoga is for every BODY, and we’re committed to creating welcoming spaces for all. By celebrating differences and inviting varied voices into the conversation, we cultivate an environment of respect, inclusion, and compassion.

Where This Partnership Leads Us

  • Growing Community Outreach
    As Cleveland Yoga and Power Yoga Collective forge ahead, expect more volunteer opportunities, charity classes, and projects aimed at making yoga accessible to those who might not otherwise experience it. We believe in making a positive impact that reaches well beyond the mat.
  • Innovative Class Offerings & Experiences
    Our combined resources mean diverse classes: from beginner-friendly flows and advanced workshops, to unique events that keep you inspired and engaged year-round. Have a dream for a new yoga program? We’re all ears!
  • Empowering the Individual
    Ultimately, our mission revolves around you—the practitioner. By championing core values of openness and accountability, we hope to encourage you to step into your own leadership, both on the mat and in your daily life.

Looking Ahead to 2025 & Beyond

Fifteen years ago, Power Yoga Canada (PYC) started with a seed of possibility and grew into a network where thousands have discovered the life-changing power of yoga. Cleveland Yoga has thrived for 25 years on the strength of community and transformation. Now, with our collective force, we embark on a journey to make yoga accessible to all who seek it.

This is your invitation:

  • Come back to your mat.
  • Bring a friend who’s never tried yoga.
  • Consider diving deeper with workshops or teacher trainings.
  • Share your own story of how yoga has made a difference in your life.

Together, Cleveland Yoga and Power Yoga Collective stand ready to support you every step of the way.

Thank you for being part of our story. We look forward to growing, thriving, and inspiring change—with every breath—into 2025 and beyond.

In community and service,
Cleveland Yoga & Power Yoga Collective

An Exciting New Chapter: Cleveland Yoga Joins Power Yoga Collective

Big news is on the horizon for our Cleveland Yoga community! After 25 years of serving yoga practitioners and fostering personal transformation in the greater Cleveland area, we’re excited to announce our partnership with Power Yoga Collective (PYC). This alliance unites two vibrant, community-driven yoga organizations under one powerful mission: Empower Communities into Action.


Why We’re Joining Forces

  1. A Legacy of Community
    Cleveland Yoga has spent decades building an open, inclusive space for practitioners to discover the transformative power of yoga—on and off the mat. Over the years, our family of teachers, staff, and students has grown into a loyal community, each contributing a unique voice and energy.
  2. PYC’s Expansive Vision
    Power Yoga Collective, with a strong presence in Canada and a growing foothold in the U.S., champions yoga that truly serves every BODY. Their mission to expand accessibility and to inspire holistic well-being aligns perfectly with Cleveland Yoga’s core principles.
  3. Shared Values
    PYC’s values resonate with the very foundation Cleveland Yoga was built upon. From Speaking Straight and Listening Generously, to Honouring Commitments and Being For Each Other, we’re stepping into a partnership rooted in integrity, compassion, and authenticity.

What This Means for You

  • Familiar Faces & New Opportunities
    Your favorite Cleveland Yoga teachers are here to stay, continuing the classes you know and love. As we step into this new chapter, we’re excited to bring fresh workshops, events, and community programs to expand your practice.
  • Seamless Transition
    Current memberships, class packages, and perks will remain valid. Think of this partnership not as a disruption, but as a chance to grow—both personally and collectively. You’ll still see the Cleveland Yoga name in the near term, with a gradual shift toward the PYC brand over time.
  • Inviting New & Returning Yogis
    If you’ve been a regular on your mat, thank you for being part of our journey. If you’ve stepped away for a while, consider this your invitation to return! Our doors are always open for those seeking to reconnect with movement, mindfulness, and community.

Looking Ahead

As we begin this exciting collaboration, we remain committed to the heart of yoga: unity, growth, and service. Together with Power Yoga Collective, Cleveland Yoga will continue offering the dynamic, inclusive, and healing practices you’ve come to expect—while expanding access and opportunities for students old and new.

We can’t wait to see you on your mat as we embrace this new era. Stay tuned for updates, upcoming events, and ways to get involved. Thank you for your continued support, and here’s to many more years of transformation!

Cleveland, OH – In a bold and inspiring move that redefines the future of modern yoga, three powerhouse communities—Cleveland Yoga, Power Yoga Canada, and Power Yoga Collective—are officially coming together under one collective vision: to empower transformation through the practice of power yoga.

This unprecedented partnership brings together decades of leadership, thousands of students, and a shared commitment to creating inclusive spaces where individuals can move their bodies, clear their minds, and connect to their greater purpose.

At the helm of Power Yoga Collective in Mentor, Ohio and Cleveland Yoga are Dan and Kelly Weiss. Known for their passion, clarity, and unwavering commitment to community, Dan and Kelly will lead the next evolution of these communities, now connected by one powerful breath.

“We are stronger together,” says Kelly Weiss. “Each of these communities has built something truly special. By aligning our strengths, we are able to amplify our impact, support one another, and create something far greater than the sum of its parts.”

Cleveland Yoga has been a cornerstone of yoga in Northeast Ohio for over 20 years. Known for its high-energy classes and deep roots in the community.  Founded by Tami Schneider, an esteemed yoga industry leader who has led programs and trainings across the U.S., Canada, and internationally.

Power Yoga Canada, founded by Kinndli McCollum and Pauline Caballero, is a national leader in yoga education, with 14 studio locations and over 900 trained teachers. Their commitment to growth, leadership, and transformation continues to inspire students across Canada and beyond.

Power Yoga Collective, with locations in Ohio and a growing online platform, has rapidly become a movement centered around connection, inclusivity, and possibility. Under Dan and Kelly’s leadership, the Collective has built momentum that now expands to embrace this larger vision.

“This moment represents everything we’ve worked for over the last decade,” say Kinndli McCollum and Pauline Caballero, co-founders of Power Yoga Canada. “By joining forces, we’re not just expanding our reach—we’re deepening our purpose. This is about more than yoga. It’s about possibility, leadership, and creating a world where everyone feels seen, supported, and empowered.”

Power Yoga Collective will continue to offer in-person and online yoga classes, advanced training programs, and resources for teachers through a unified platform. Students and community members can expect the same powerful practice, now backed by the strength, heart, and experience of three incredible organizations.
