Lagree vs. Pilates

What's the Difference?

Both Lagree and Pilates offer valuable fitness benefits, but understanding their unique differences shows why Lagree has become a popular choice for faster, dynamic results.

Origin + Evolution


Pilates was founded by Joseph Pilates and is known for enhancing core strength, flexibility, and controlled, mindful movements. It’s commonly practiced on a mat or specialized equipment like the Reformer.

Lagree was innovated by Sébastien Lagree, evolving traditional Pilates principles into a modern, high-intensity workout. Exclusively performed on the Megaformer, Lagree integrates strength, endurance, cardio, flexibility, and balance into each powerful session.

Intensity + Efficiency

Pilates typically isolates specific muscles, with a primary focus on core strength and posture improvement.

Lagree maximizes efficiency by simultaneously activating multiple muscle groups—over 600 muscles per session—resulting in heightened calorie burn, metabolism boost, and increased muscle endurance.

Equipment Innovation

Pilates utilizes various equipment such as mats, Reformers, Cadillacs, and Chairs to facilitate precise, controlled exercises.

Lagree exclusively uses the advanced Megaformer, expertly designed for seamless transitions, intense resistance training, and total-body workouts, significantly enhancing workout efficiency.
