OUR WORKOUTS

Lagree was created by Sebastien Lagree, originally as an evolution of Pilates. It’s done on a machine called the Megaformer (or Microformer for the smaller version), which looks a bit like a reformer but is built for a more intense workout. Lagree focuses on slow, controlled movements held under constant tension, which keeps muscles working continuously. The idea is to fatigue muscles through time under tension rather than fast reps, combining strength, endurance, and core work in one session. It’s typically more high-intensity and cardio-like than classic Pilates, while staying low-impact on the joints.
Pilates was developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century. It focuses on core strength, controlled movement, flexibility, and the mind-body connection. There are two main formats: mat work (floor-based, using bodyweight) and reformer work (using a spring-loaded machine with a sliding carriage); and other apparatus eg Cadillac, chair, ladder barrel, tower, etc.
The pace tends to be controlled and precise, with emphasis on breathing, alignment, and quality of movement. It’s often used for rehab, posture, and building deep stabilising muscles.
