Lagree Method
Lagree is a Californian method that works the body deep down, without joint impact. Classes limited to 4 people, with individual support.
What is the Lagree Method?
Often described as ‘Pilates on steroids’ (though entirely gentle), this method from Los Angeles generally makes it possible to work the body deep down, to refine the figure and to strengthen the muscles, with no jarring impact on the joints.
The principle is simple: slowness. By slowing the movement to the extreme, we remove momentum and force the muscles to work deep down and in extension. It is this permanent tension that generally engages the muscle fibres responsible for endurance and for the definition of the figure.
The work is intense and continuous; it aims for long, tapered muscles rather than volume.

Why Maison Minceur chose the Lagree method
At Maison Minceur, we know you are looking for effectiveness without compromising the health of your joints. That is why we chose to bring the Lagree method into our range of treatments.
Fineness rather than volume
We deliberately set aside Megaformers, which are designed to produce muscle hypertrophy. The Microformer and the Mini Pro we selected work with fineness: they sculpt long, tapered and elegant muscles, without ever weighing down the figure.
A limit of 4 people maximum
This limit is not a commercial constraint, it is a choice about quality. With 4, the instructor can genuinely correct every posture, adapt every exercise, adjust every spring. With 8 or 12, the support becomes theoretical.
Part of a complete slimming centre
Lagree is not an isolated discipline with us. It sits within protocols combined with our other treatments: lymphatic drainage for recovery, Indiba for firming, the Japanese sauna for relaxation after the effort. A whole approach rather than a practice kept apart.
Two sets of equipment, two atmospheres
The Maison Minceur Lagree studios are distinct, equipped differently, to suit different client profiles. Each has its atmosphere, its town, its machine, and all share the same requirement: to sculpt without weighing down, to support closely, to preserve the intimacy of the setting.
Microformer or Mini Pro: two sets of equipment, two experiences
The choice of machine is anything but incidental. Here is what sets the two studios apart, to help you choose the one that matches what you are looking for.

| Location | Île de la Jatte, near the Pont de Levallois | at the gates of Monaco, a few minutes from the Larvotto and the Carré d'Or |
| Small-group classes | Maximum 4 people | Maximum 4 people |
| Joint impact | Zero impact, even at full range | Zero impact, controlled movement |
| Muscle work | Deep down, at varied angles | Deep down, continuous tension |
| Sculpting effect | Tones the figure without hypertrophy | Refines the figure without hypertrophy |
| Distinctive strength | 6-angle platform, folding carriage | Mechanical purity, proven simplicity |
