THE WORKOUT
THE METHOD
High intensity, low impact. A full-body workout created by Sebastien Lagree that builds strength, endurance and core control in 45 minutes.
HOW IT WORKS
SLOW IS HARD
Every move is slow, controlled and continuous. Your muscles stay under tension the whole time, with no rest between exercises, until they reach near-failure.
​
Low impact means easy on the joints, not easy. Unlike HIIT or CrossFit there is no jumping or pounding, but it works up to 600 muscles at once.
​
Strength, endurance, cardio and core in one class, with each exercise progressively overloading the muscles, so results come quickly and last.

THE MACHINE
MINIFORMER PRO
Every class is taught on Lagree's own patented commercial-grade machine. It goes well beyond a Pilates reformer.
SPRINGS AND BODYWEIGHT
Five colour-coded springs, from very light to heavy, so every exercise can be set for a beginner or an athlete.
ANGLED PLATFORMS
The front platform tilts through several positions, opening up moves flat machines can’t do.
ROOM TO MOVE
A full-size carriage gives a bigger range of motion and suits taller clients comfortably.
