Great workout and love that it's only 25-minutes. The class is hard but totally worth it! I am shaking the entire time and hate my life but somehow I always end up booking another class because it's really one of the only workouts where you SEE RESULTS. Full Body with Ty and abs with KJ are my favorites! read more

I came in for my first class this week and it was pretty good. Although, I'm not use to using a reformer for my workouts and it really helps with isolation, it takes some getting use to. The lagree method is quite interesting as it doesn't require you to be in position for too long, about a minute or so. I'd definitely come back again. read more

This is a very challenging workout but can be adapted for all fitness levels. You will be sore in places you never have been before. Great for isolating muscles especially the core! I love taking class with KJ, TY, Sam and Jenny! 25 min may not sound long but you will be sweaty and sore for sure :) read more

I've been going to Lagree for over a year now, and I still get sore after class. This workout has helped me elongate and tone my muscles that got bulky from spinning and boxing - and yes, the 25 minutes is plenty. The instructor I really have to thank is Sam. She gives such specific adjustments and alignment instructions which make all the difference. Thanks to her (and my awesome chiropractor) I've corrected my posture and got 1.5 inches of my height back. read more

Lagree quickly became my favorite new workout! The classes are 25 minutes, but that doesn't mean they're easy! I love the length, as it's easier to fit a workout in with a busy schedule. The supra is no ordinary megaformer, and they stress that it is NOT a pilates class. I truly get a full body workout every time. The instructors have a remote that makes the machine incline and move left and right, truly testing your stability and making the workout that much more intense. I love Emma's classes, as well as Ty's, although you really can't go wrong with any of the instructors! The studio and bathrooms are always clean and well kept. Parking is easy, with a structure below. Prices are reasonable. If you're up for a serious ab burner, try the core sculpt! My core has never been so strong. Thanks Lagree!! read more

I discovered this place because it was the only place where I could get my Lagree workout on while the stay at home order has been in place. The staff and instructors are so friendly. And the instructors are amazing. Super challenging workouts. read more

First time here: no greeting. Brittany the front desk rudely and insincerely told me to leave the studio because my socks were not adequate. She can't move me to any other class because I signed up through classpass. Amazing first impression. Never would recommend! read more

I've been doing Lagree for about 8 months now, all on Megaformers, and all in studios in the Bay Area. The fanciest Lagree machine I had been on before was a megaformer with ramping capabilities. I love this form of exercise and on my trip to LA, I figured what better place to do a Lagree workout than at THE Lagree Fitness Studio? I signed up for a 25-minute Supra class via ClassPass and was anxious and nervous despite having done Lagree style exercises dozens of times. The Supraformer can be quite intimidating. After familiarizing myself with the machine, our time started. Within seconds, I felt the burn. Everything was so much harder with the ramping and tilting. I loved that we didn't spend as much time on each exercise. My instructor, Samantha, has a level of intensity that I have not experienced before. She stood right in front of my face and made eye contact while telling me to push harder. A bit hardcore but I didn't mind it at all. I also appreciated that she was hands on and made small corrections that no one had ever pointed out to me before. At one point, I was drenching in sweat and ready to quit. Just as the thought passed through my mind, I heard her say it was time for child's pose. The class was over! 25 minutes went by quickly. It was fun. read more

When i first booked this class I thought "how bad can 25 minutes be?" I've been taking lagree megaformer classes in SF for about 2-3 years now and my classes up north are normally 40 minutes long. I expected the 25 minutes to be a breeze. Let me tell you -- i was very very wrong. The supra machine is pretty similar to the megaformer but with ramps that not only go up and down but side to side as well. This saves a lot of time since now you can work out center abs and obliques while holding one plank. The other difference I noticed that makes these classes more efficient is how hard they push you here. Instead of a weak "level 2, or level 4" these machines get ramped extremely high so the intensity is brought to a max immediately. The instructor also doesn't waste time explaining moves so a newbie might take a couple of lessons before they get familiarized with all the movements. I'm definitely addicted. I want all of my classes to be 25 minutes now. What an amazing workout! i can't wait to come back! Efficient and effective -- the best type of workout. read more

This workout is INSANE! I do reformer Pilates all the time but this was my first encounter with the SUPRAFORMER. It could probably have been used back in the day as a medieval torture device. I don't know what is more painful: the acute burn during the actual class or the debilitating muscle soreness that ensues for the next three days. I first came to Lagree with a friend who had taken classes here before so I was aware that the workout would be tough! I couldn't fathom that a 25 minute full body workout would leave me sore but now I know, this class is not for the faint of heart. It is 25 minutes of high intensity nonstop time under tension. You will be shaking from start to finish as the supraformer turns and tilts--holding a plank is basically your recovery. This workout is so unique and works such odd muscles, I think it would be challenging for ANYONE in any kind of shape. I would not recommend this class to anyone new to Pilates or in terrible shape--start at an easy studio or take a beginners class. The instructors give excellent guidance and corrections. I wish the music was a little better (mostly instrumental EDM), but the class goes by so quickly and you spend most of your time fighting for your life on a rotating, sliding carriage from hell, there's hardly any time to think about it. This studio is HUGE and I love the convenient garage parking. read more

Took a class here for the first time last weekend - I've done MDR before and I knew this was a more intense version of that, but I have to say I did not enjoy the class at all. The teacher was a little too intense for my liking - I understand some people need to be pushed but she seemed annoyed when people weren't positioned right or out of sync. The first machine I was on didn't start moving and I spent quite a lot of time looking for an on button before I finally realized it was broken - when I moved to a new machine the springs were all mangled and looked broken, so I left them alone. The instructor came over and yelled at me for not having a black string on - when I pointed out that they were broken, she said "if the spring is broken use all the ones that aren't broken, I said that three times already." I definitely did not hear her say that three times, and it also kind of bothered me that instead of fixing machines that were broken we were just using modifications? Overall I just did not get a good vibe from that class. Everyone at the front desk was really nice and showed me around since it was my first time but the instructor didn't seem to care. read more

I've been doing lagree Pilates on and off for the last four years. In the past year more frequently. Even though I've done ramp, the Supra is something else. It's so intense in the best possible way. I usually don't sweat all that much during a typical megareformer class, but I drip in sweat after these 25 minute classes. I really like the short class duration- even though it's only 25 minutes I feel there is absolutely no chance to go easy. Very efficient. Definitely feel sore 24 hits later. Have had Sam, Brian and Luke. All have been really great, encouraging and made form adjustments. read more

This 5-star review is for Journey who is such an asset to any studio she instructs at. I have thrown a couple of wellness events with her as the instructor, and the class is always laughing and having a good time while being challenged but encouraged. Multiple people who were new to lagree and the machine commented on how comfortable she made them feel. If you have a good sense of humor, follow her on IG @journsla and subscribe to her newsletter! read more

What's better than a super quick workout that's also "supra" challenging? Not much! I've only been to Lagree twice, but both experiences have been great. The workouts are only 25 minutes, so it's easy to find the time. However, I made the mistake of coming here before I had plans thinking, "Oh, I won't get too sweaty in 25 minutes." I was wrong. I had to show up for my post-workout plans with a flushed face, messy hair, and probably a bit smelly. Now I know. You must have other reformer experience before coming here. It's not easy. The first time I went I was in way better shape, so it wasn't horrible. The second time was after the fall of unlimited classpass (RIP), so my fitness level had gone down a bit and I was basically holding on for dear life. Even though I struggled through, I was like jello by the end and sore the next day. But it feels good to accomplish that in just 25 minutes. I hope to keep going back and seeing improvement. Parking in the underground garage off of Westmount Dr (which is a dead end). read more

Well let me start of by saying that I was very excited when I found out this studio was opening up, I have been to other studios in the past that teach the lagree method and I've even taken a class taught by Sebastian at another studio a few years ago and I had such a great experience overall but clearly this studio is not being ran like his previous studios. normally don't like leaving bad reviews but my experience was so unpleasant that I felt the need to share this... HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE - I showed up about 15 minutes early and the girl at the front desk was on her phone and it seemed like she was on a personal call using very vulgar language and when I greeted her she did not even look up.. I stood there hoping she would eventually pay attention until finally I asked where the restroom was ( which by the way had trash all over the floor and reeked of smoke) she looked up after a few minutes and just rolled her eyes! At any point did anyone showed me or any of the other students the machine. The instructor started right on time but did not take the time to answer questions or ask if anyone was new or had any injuries.The class started very quickly, and everyone was behind because we were all having to reset the spring on our machine. The music was very low and you could hardly understand the instructor over the mic. during class the person next to me fell off the machine and the instructor didn't even approach them or help them up. The instructor didn't walk around at any point to help the students. All in all it was about a 15 minute workout, not worth paying for. As I was leaving I asked when Sebastian was teaching and the front desk girl just told me to check online or call because she was busy ( again she was on her phone) and it appeared she was upset that I interrupted. Definitely did not make anyone feel welcomed. VERY UNSATISFACTORY SERVICE - To clarify I actually did contact classpass about my experience to receive a credit for that class since your front desk staff was not able to help me when I did try to speak to someone after class. I understand it can be frustrating to receive honest reviews but I was so disappointed because as you can read in my review I have had a good experience at other studios that teach the lagree method. Clearly the staff here is very rude as you can see by their response to my review. read more

Think you're in shape? Come here for your wakeup call. No contest, this is THE best workout in LA. I would say I am a workout aficionado. I'm obsessed with group fitness and have tried most of the popular workouts in LA. Cycle House, Soul Cycle, Barry's, CorePower, all the barre studios, etc. etc. I have tried them. And none of them make me sore. And none of them have transformed my body into #bodygoals either. Enter Lagree Fitness. The absolute HARDEST WORKOUT I have ever done in my entire life. I've been meaning to get more into reformer Pilates and mistakenly thought this would be a perfect post-spin, easy 25 minute Club Pilates type deal. Showed up to Luke's Saturday afternoon class thinking "nbd, I got this." WRONG. So, so wrong. First, this is not Pilates. This is not even Pilates on crack. This is a hardcore strength training workout done on a "supraformer," or what can only be described as a Pilates-reformer-turned-torture-device that INCLINES AND TILTS. The instructor has an iPad that controls the movement - aka, no cheating. Literally 2 minutes into class and the shake that I've never been able to get at barre class immediately manifested into my body. Towards the 15 minute mark, Luke had to take all the resistance springs off of my supraformer 'cause that's how much I was struggling. All I could think about was not falling off the machine in case my muscles gave out, although I'd be lying if I said I didn't mentally prepare myself for it. As for Luke, he was an amazing instructor! I obviously had no idea what I was doing and he came and gave multiple adjustments to ensure safety/form and make the workout more effective. Love how hands-on and personalized this small studio is. The workout was so amazing that I'm Yelping about it less than a week later, even though I'm like 18 months behind on Yelp reviews. I was sore for 3 days after the workout, a feeling I haven't had in months (years??). And I swear on my life, my body looked noticeably more defined and compacted after just one 25-minute class. Pros: Everything listed above, plus plenty of free parking (just make sure you park in spots marked "retail") Cons: No towel service even though you'll sweat a lot; I wish they'd add 5 minutes at the end for a thorough stretch. Nothing major! ----- ClassPass tip - the founder of this place also has a machine called the megaformer that is similar but doesn't incline or tilt. Classes are more core-based (I found that I mostly worked my arms and butt/legs here). Lots of studios in LA use the megaformer and also share instructors with Lagree, so there are great alternatives for when you run out of your 3/month here. read more

From my experience I've found that showing up: - Early with ample time to sign in, reserve a machine and change into Toe Sox -- is the best way to ensure a great class here. PREPERATION is key. It is challenging. read more

This shit it totally hard!! It burns so good though. I work out a lot. I mean seriously on average 2-3 hours per DAY. I love doing different workouts so it works different muscles in my body. I've been doing lagree Pilates in San Diego at core 40 for years. Was totally intrigued by the super former so I though I'd try it out the next time I was in LA. What a difference a little incline makes! Thank god the class was only 25 mins because I was dripping in sweat. I will definitely try it again soon. read more

In case you don't want to read a book. I've simplified it: Best LAGREE studio ever, best results, best machine, Ky Evans. Today marks my 8th class and I am taking with none other than the one and only KY EVANS, the best of the best trainers when it comes to Lagree fitness and I will tell you why later. My dream came true when he started teaching at this brand new studio which is by far the best in LA. I used to go to studio MDR religiously, which is very much so on the west side of town. Now that I'm in Beverly Hills, my boyfriend and I literally had a countdown for when this new studio would open and it finally did and I was there day 1. Holy mole was I blown out of the water!!! First of all, the studio because it is brand new, is as pristine, decadent, modern and beautiful as can be. There are 3 spacious MODERN and clean lovely bathrooms lavished with brand new hair ties, feminine products, spray deodorant and obvious final touches of a genius with Molton Brown soap. Danielle Lagree, the wife of Sebastian Lagree, the creator and soul behind this powerhouse, has incredibly outdone herself and all the other studios. Hate to say it to the fellow studios but it's true. But hey they always say go to the source right? Sebastian also teaches here is your lucky enough to get into his class. Danielle is so sweet and so friendly and goes out of her way to help us with anything we need. Not to mention, she adorns her studio with the latest athleisure wear with brands like Michi, her own Lagree Fitness, Alo, Sachi socks (my fav and in colors no one else has) etc...just to name a few. Also, there are lockers which is a first for me at any lagree studio. The location is awesome, love HOW many classes they have, their schedules and TONS of parking. What I love about the new machine is the blue and red lights, so badass. I love the tilting, because just when I love he feeling of the burning in my side. Just when you think your just hitting the middle and center BOOM side intensity burn and it really feels so good. My favorite is when we are elevated up and have to crunch our knees into our chest on this machine because that's when I feel I'm working my center but my arms are at it too. On the megaformer this move obviously is not as intense as all the moves but this one you feel how much tighter and harder you are working by being simply elevated at an angle. The most rewarding of this entire experience is I get to train with Ky Evans, the absolute best of the best AND at THIS studio, by far the best in LA which I can say because I've seen all the Pilates Plus' and I used to go to Studio MDR. I have also seen the ones in NY and Miami. Ky is special and thats a blatant understatement. Wait until you try his supraformer class. He has turned this supraformer workout into the workout I love and know will transform my body again. I lost 40 pounds with him and I'm ready to do it again after the holidays major weight gain. My boyfriend lost 30 pounds also with Ky. At first I thought 25 minutes isn't enough. By the 3 class and as I'm building up my strength Ky has written programs and sets that have me saying Holy **** 25 minutes is too long, but no it's really just perfect. And yes It's that intense! And more than enough to make a change. If your not shaking, sore the next day or breaking a sweat, your probably not doing it right. I love when trainers from other studios come in with their perfect bodies and take a class with Ky and can't keep up! I see them look up like is this for real? It's so real and Ky Evans will change your life with the supraformer. Don't give up. Newbies you haven't done lagree or Pilates right until you have tried this supraformer! And no this isn't the Pilates you do that has a machine with the silver metal or wood beds. This is Lagree baby at its best! I look forward to all my classes with Killer Ky on the supraformer, the best machine ever. read more

The Megaformer Studio - With the man behind it all, Sebastian Lagree! - Gyms Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is the best workout in Los Angeles, it never gets easier and the results are incredible. I'm someone who has never had abs that has them now thanks to this studio. Sounds insane but one class I really pushed myself and told myself no modifications, no breaks....I left seeing instantly more definition in my core. They will push you to get you to your goals and are very attentive if you need a modification due to an injury. I feel like the strength I've gained through lagree has helped me be less injury prone in many aspects of my life. read more

Ahhhhh I felt SO out of shape after this workout. I had been doing the lagree method (at studio MDR) for a few months before coming to THE lagree studio, and took a class with Sebastian himself! The supra takes an already challenging workout another notch up! My only complaint was that if you can't keep up, I feel like you miss out on a workout since it's only 25 minutes. They say it's for "all levels" but I really don't think it is. If I hadn't already been doing the method, I don't know if I would've gotten a workout in 25 minutes (not because it's not challenging, but because I would be lost, and every second is so precious when doing lagree fitness!) read more

Oh, man. This place. Is so. Good. Every class is pretty much the same deal - 25 minutes of INTENSE pilates plus on a Supra Reformer. It's like a normal pilates plus reformer but it inclines and rotates!! So it's a waaaay more intense work out. By the time the 25 minutes are up, my limbs are JELLY. Every single work out feels totally worth it! I might even leave classpass and just go unlimited at this place! Plus: free parking. Need I say more? No. Take with Ty on Wednesdays. He's the shit. read more

They have 5 stars for a reason! This workout is unlike any I've done before. It had me sweating within 5 minutes and challenged me like I haven't been in some time. The best thing is that it's over before you know it. Try it and you won't be disappointed. read more

I walked into Legree Fitness as a newbie but left a die-hard fan. This is the holy grail of fitness people. The ONE workout you must try and integrate into your life. It's that phenomenal. I don't even want to share my experience for fear the classes will fill up, but Legree Fitness deserves all the accolades and praise. Yes the studio is beautiful, clean and modern. The lockers are state of the art. Heck, we even had a DJ spinning tunes while we worked out. But the real gem is the Supraformer itself. Sebastian Legree taught our class and let me tell you, he's created a masterpiece with his new Supraformer machine. High tech integration comes at a cost. I'm certain he dropped some serious cash in developing it. But he's designed it with such foresight that everything is where it should be. One look around the room and I could see steely concentration from everyone there, only they were sweating profusely and giving me that return glance which said, "Is this for real? It's kicking my ass!!!" Honestly, I have never felt so adequately challenged during a class and utterly motivated to master the technique and form. My only complaint? It's so far from South Bay. Not exactly convenient but for results like these, I'll make the trek. A 25 minute workout seems like a fitness fad. Only it's not. Trust me, it's 25 minutes well spent. My muscles were shaking so much, I was happy to have it end. Slow counts to four, both in and out during every move, taxed my core and muscles. I 100% believe that the Supraformer is going to change bodies and lives. And I can't wait to become one of them. Five stars all the way!!! read more

This review is long overdue, I've taken classes here with Ky and Mr. Lagree himself and I just love how each exercise is always a challenge even though its only 25 minutes. It burns so good, but it goes by so fast, next thing you know your done. I find this exercise very difficult it you will see the results if your consistent. Both Sebastian and his wife are very welcoming and the studio is beautiful with new machines, who wouldn't want to come and take a class. Try it out and be the judge of this awesome workout if your visiting or live in town its a must. read more

This has got to be one of my favorite studios. It's only 25 minutes and perfect for a quick workout. My only thing is that I wish they were more focused on form for those that clearly don't know what they are doing! read more

I have been a die-hard fan of the Lagree method for more than 4 years now, and over the past 2.5 years have been consistently sweating my heart out on the Megaformer with coach Ky Evans aka the mad exercise scientist. Now with the new Supraformer, he is able to create even more challenging workouts in a shorter span of time. Seriously, the profuse sweating starts within the first minute on this supra-cool looking machine. The machine was a little intimidating the first time I got on it. I remember freaking out a little when it started tilting, but honestly it was a ton of fun! The tilt and incline force me to engage muscles that I do not typically use, even on the Megaformer. I was extremely sore for many days after, and keep in mind I had been doing the workout for 4+ years prior to jumping on the Supraformer. Thanks Mr Lagree for once again innovating new machines and methods to kick our butts. I CANNOT WAIT for my next sweat session with the one and only KY EVANS and my fellow equally addicted warriors! read more

As a long time Sebastien pilates devotee, I was so thrilled about the grand opening of his new studio in WeHo. I had taken about a 5 year vacation from pilates (big mistake), and the last reformer I used was quite a few versions ago, but all I can say is WOW! The new machines take this to a completely new level and in a much shorter time period with full on automation for incline and angles for intensifying each exercise, controlled by your instructor. The intensity of the 25 minute workout makes me realize that it is not about how long your workout really is. After two days in a row, I am feeling every muscle in my body and it's all good. The "Lagree Method" is perfect for people with busy lifestyles yet demand a good work out. Danielle, Sebastien's wife, is a breath of fresh air and so knowledgeable. Visit the restrooms and see how well appointed they are after you have secured your valuables in a fabulous locker. Bring a towel because sweating is guaranteed and almost immediately. The entire concept and space is a win win, with parking everywhere and free, and you can even shop for cute workout attire while you wait for your class to begin. The classes are so reasonably priced that you will be happy to buy a package. Run don't walk to Lagree Fitness Studio, it will be the best thing for your mind and your body!!! read more

Went for the first time a few months ago and I LOVE it! This studio is the best in the LA area and worth traveling for as i live DTLA. I've been taking lagree for close to a year now and nothing compares to the workout! I love supra-reformers and the instructors I've taken thus far (Brian, Whitney and Ty!). Being an instructor myself (spin), i know a good coach when i see one. All of these guys are the best! Management/Owners/Asst. Danyelle, husband and Max are really nice too. Looking forward to making this a mainstay in my workouts. read more

I've been consistently practicing the Lagree Method in this studio for over eight months now. Due to a disc issue with my spine, I had to quit long distance running and high impact activity. The Lagree Method is the perfect workout regimen for me since it's both low impact and high intensity over the course of only 25 minutes. It's the perfect workout for anyone crunched with time looking for a challenging full-body or isolated (i.e core, legs, arms, etc.) workout. Each trainer offers a different style of teaching. I have trained with Jenny, Ty, Sara, Lauren, Sharnee, Samantha, Luke, Brian, Sebastien and Dede. Most importantly, each trainer pays close attention to form, ensuring that no one injures themselves while doing the moves on the Supraformer from simple actions like tucking the tailbone in or distributing weight on the heel. They are all very experienced across multiple disciplinaries in fitness. Moreover, each trainer explains the purpose of each movement in the exercise, so you know exactly what muscle group you're challenging at any given moment. Their encouragement and enthusiasm constantly inspire me to challenge myself mind over matter. The staff is welcoming, friendly and work hard to create an inclusive environment for anyone. This is important in a city like LA, where many studios are quite intimidating. I cannot praise this studio and team enough. Every single session is not only challenging, but it is also enjoyable and fun! I am obsessed. I totally Lagree ! read more

This place will give you a burn for days. I took the class two days ago and I'm still sore. I've never taken a class like this. I've done pilates reformer but this is pilates reformer on crack! Don't let the short 25 min class fool you. The workout is hard and it's hard because the machines move! They move up, down, side to side. It's definitely called SUPRA reformer for a reason. It's challenging and it will make you sweat. I've never sweat so much doing a pilates reformer class. There is free parking in the underground parking lot. You can only park in the retail spots, not the residential or you will get towed. When I went, there weren't many retail spots but I got lucky because someone was leaving just as I entered. Hopefully, I'll get lucky again but there must be more retail spots I'm not finding. read more

I've had Yelp for quite some time and I am just about to write my first review because this place truly deserves it! Let me start by saying that the Lagree Method changes lives! My sister lost nearly 50 lbs about 4 years ago from 50 minutes on the Megaformer 4-5 days a week. As for me, it's help keep my body intact in spite of having three kids. It's also a wonderful exercise to increase pain tolerance ;) I've become addicted to the "shake" in my muscles. The Supraformer takes the Lagree Method to a whole new level! In only 25 minutes, the amazing instructors work you to exhaustion. But it goes beyond just working the body; the exercises on the Supraformer require precision and concentration to get the muscles shaking, so my mind shuts the world out and focuses just on my body. Its a win-win situation for a busy single mom with a private legal practice! I get to work on my body and quiet the chatter in my mind simultaneously in just 25 minutes. Also, I think that the exercises on the Supraformer will only get more challenging as my form and technique improves, which is great! As for the studio, its a beautiful brand new space that is conveniently located on La Cienega just North of the Beverly Center. There is ample street parking and free parking in the basement of the building. Its extremely clean and the restrooms are well-stocked with work out essentials, such as antiperspirant, hair elastics, and face wash. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The instructors are approachable, knowledgeable and go around making sure you perform the exercises correctly. Sebastien Lagree is a great down to earth person, who, at the same time, takes pride in his product and service. There are many exercises out there but the Lagree Method is one of the few that truly delivers and stands behind its claims. read more

I'm a big fan of megaformer. I was on vacation and decided to check out Lagree class and saw Sebastien Lagree was teaching a Supra Class (I've never taken that class before), It's a 25 mins class that felt like 2 hours! I was drenched and sore after the class. Sebastien was super nice and hands on, I would totally recommend this place! read more

The Megaformer Studio - Gyms Near Me - Los Angeles, California

These classes are challenging and enjoyable. The 25 minute format is not great for me, because I never feel like I've done enough in one class. The hospitality and customer experience could be improved. The extreme strictness for 2 min late entry is off putting, especially when the class is mostly empty. Also, why are there no 50 minute classes? There are 50 minute classes At Westwood. At 25 min The commute takes longer than the workout. read more

Fantastic workout for the 25 minutes. With proper form, this should hurt. I've been attending Lagree classes for a year now. I recommend someone with no experience get used to the movements in a Megaformer class first*. Because of the short class time and how many machines there are, you may not get a lot of attention/form correction if you don't know what you're doing. I love how emphatic and encouraging Ky is. Some fitness instructors are all, "listen to your body, don't push yourself too hard!" which is important for avoiding injury, but can also lead to mental laziness. Not here. Lagree is as much mental endurance as it is physical. *Pilates Platinum have several locations, Carries Pilates Plus is in WeHo as well. My personal favorite is the Studio MDR at Marina Del Rey. read more

I have been doing Lagree for almost 10 years, and Journey is my favorite instructor of all time (and I've had a lot!). Don't be misled by the fact that she's small and hilarious, her workouts will make you want to die (and also get you in the best shape of your life). She will support you and cajole you into holding that plank longer, taking that lunge lower, and adding in that extra push-up every time in a way that makes you feel empowered and not bullied. Everyone needs this workout, and Journey, in their lives. read more

I really enjoyed this workout and was impressed by the impact it had in such a short span of time. For a 25 minute workout, it is quite challenging and will leave you feeling like you worked hard. I took Ty's Booty Burn class and thought his instruction was good. He was very motivating and described each movement clearly. As a beginner, I think it could have been made clearer how to modify the resistance on the machines and I would have liked a bit more guidance on how to use the machines prior to the class. Someone went through it with me very briefly but more detail would have helped. Overall it was well-worth it for the price and I'd absolutely go back again. read more

This review is for the SM location but I believe that many of the instructors teach at both locations. I moved to the westside from Hollywood in July and quickly found The Megaformer Studio on Broadway and 4th in SM. First of all, the studio is immaculate. The machines are a thing of tortuous beauty. The instructors are amazing. I am addicted to Journey's class. She somehow manages to slightly numb the pain with her charm, wit and delightful stories. Maxwell will also light a fire under you and he knows how hard and when to push you to really get results. That being said all of the instructors are amazing and will leave you feeling like you deserve that happy hour rosé. I have successfully gotten rid of my back pain due to a weak core after years of being a marathon runner and having a baby (probably mostly due to the baby, good thing she is cute). Get ready to shake like a USCB sorority girl going out to DP for Halloween in the freezing cold October air (go Gauchos!). Oh and don't give up after going once. Buy a package. Do it. read more

25 minute workout!! And you get your butt kicked! If you're familiar with the mega reformer used at other studios like Pilates Plus and Carries, then you'll recognize the super reformer. Except this thing is like that but on steroids. It's a great workout for your abs and butt, leans you out and the machine is so future that you just have to try it. read more

The new Supraformers are incredible! So many different options and ways to get the maximum out of your workout in minimal time. 25 minutes felt like plenty for me but left me craving more! The facility is beautiful and clean and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to take another class again soon! read more
