Beginner’s Guide to Lagree Fitness + HOW TO TAKE YOUR FIRST CLASS WITH US

Written By Elia

If you’ve been searching for Lagree classes in Scottsdale, Phoenix or Gilbert, you’re likely looking for a workout that is efficient, low-impact and seriously effective. Lagree Fitness combines strength, endurance, core training, balance, and flexibility- all in one intense but joint-friendly workout.

At our studio, we pair Lagree Method training with high-intensity VersaClimber workouts, giving you a full-body fitness experience designed for fast results and long-term strength.

If you’re a beginner, this guide will walk you through exactly how to get started:

What Is Lagree Fitness?

Lagree Fitness is often cheekily described as ‘Pilates on steroids’ but it is its own unique training method. Sebastien Lagree, the creator of the method, blended the two ideologies of body building and pilates. The workout is done on a specialized machine called the Megaformer created specifically for this method. Every movement is slow, controlled, and designed to maximize muscle fatigue without stressing your joints.

Lagree is perfect for:

  • Beginners who want low-impact strength training

  • Athletes cross-training for performance

  • Anyone looking to tone without heavy weights or high-impact movement

What Is VersaClimber Training?

In addition to Lagree, we also offer VersaClimber classes, one of the most effective cardio workouts available today.

The VersaClimber is a vertical climbing machine that engages your entire body- arms, legs, core, and back- while keeping impact low on your joints.

If you’ve been searching for:

  • VersaClimber Phoenix workouts

  • HIIT cardio classes Scottsdale

  • cardio in Scottsdale

…this is the workout that delivers maximum calorie burn in minimal time. Classes are usually 30 minutes long where you burn anywhere between 300-600 calories in one session.
