LOS ANGELES (Legal Newsline) — CorePower Yoga, which operates more than 200 studios throughout the United States, is facing a class action alleging it continues to charge membership fees despite the closure of its studios due to the COVID-19 outbreak. 

Erin Weiler, on behalf of herself and all others similarly situated, filed a complaint April 15 in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against CorePower Yoga LLC alleging violation of California's Unfair Competition Law, fraud and other claims. 

Weiler became a member of CorePower Yoga Studios in February 2020 with CorePower charging $169 per month to her credit card. She alleges that despite CorePower closing all of its yoga studios across the nation on March 16 due to the COVID-19 outbreak, they continued to charge her credit card. Weiler claims CorePower refused to refund the fee even though members had no access to the studios.

Weiler seeks monetary relief, trial by jury, interest and all other just relief. She is represented by Yeremey Krivoshey and Brittany Scott of Bursor & Fisher in Walnut Creek, California and Scott Bursor of Bursor & Fisher in Miami. 

U.S. District Court for the Central District of California case number 2:20-CV-03496
