Lagree is a high-intensity, low-impact training method created by Sebastien Lagree. It’s performed on the Megaformer, a spring-loaded machine with a moving platform designed for constant resistance and full-body engagement. Largee combines Pilates-inspired movements with faster tempos and heavier resistance to deliver a more dynamic and challenging session than traditional Pilates.
While traditional Pilates is performed on a Reformer or mat and focuses on slow, controlled movements to improve flexibility, posture and core strength, Lagree’s Megaformer adds advanced features for higher resistance and multi-joint, compound movements. This pushes your muscles to fatigue more quickly and keeps them under continuous tension, boosting strength and cardiovascular endurance.
In Pilates, the primary focus is core stability, alignment and breathing techniques, often in a calm, meditative setting. Lagree shares the emphasis on core but engages the entire body at a higher intensity to sculpt long, lean muscles while improving strength, stamina and coordination.
In our Lagree class (the Reform Method), you’ll spend 50 minutes performing high-intensity, low-impact strength exercises on the Lagree Megaformer. Each movement is geared for maximum muscle engagement, with tempo variations and sequences inspired by Pilates and other training disciplines to challenge you in the best way - our signature spin on the traditional Lagree concept.
Expect an upbeat atmosphere, energising music and hands-on support from your instructor, all focused on full-body strength and conditioning.
The calories you burn in a Lagree class can vary depending on your weight, fitness level and how hard you work. Most people will burn between 350 and 800+ calories in a 45–50 minute session, which is why it’s a highly efficient low-impact workout.
Lagree training combines strength, cardio and endurance in one continuous flow. The Megaformer’s adjustable resistance also challenges multiple muscle groups at the same time. Alongside burning calories, you’ll be building strength, improving muscle tone and supporting healthy weight management.
