INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Judy Page

HOMETOWN: Bay City, MI

FAVORITE MOVE: Plank to Pike: It targets the deep pelvic floor muscles while stretching my hamstrings!

FUN FACT: I’m a total GF IPA girl, kickball enthusiast, and football fanatic! Bring on the Spartans and Lions!

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I’ve been coaching fitness for over 10 years and 8 of those have been teaching Lagree for some of the top studios on the West & East Coast. With multiple degrees in education, I have a passion for teaching others how to be and feel their best, through movement, music, and exercise. I love learning. I take joy in finding new ways to motivate and help others grow through continuing to learn myself.

HEAD OF TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: arsharel

HOMETOWN: Detroit, MI

FAVORITE MOVE: Super Lunge. I never knew that my body was so out of alignment when it came to doing a lunge. But the way it works my lower half and challenges my upper half at the same time gives me so much power.

FUN FACT: My nickname is Tyrannosaurus Rex. I always try to work out my upper body, but I never do!

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I have practiced yoga for most of my adult life. I also taught Lagree for over 2 years at the Bloomfield Hills SLT location. I’m so addicted to Lagree! It’s such a challenging workout. It never gets boring and you see results in your body so quick. The Megaformer machine is awesome!

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT TEAM

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Danyell

HOMETOWN: Cleveland, OH

FAVORITE MOVE: I'm a fan of Bear, because it hits so many muscles in one move. Talk about a mental and physical challenge!

FUN FACT: If you ever can't find me, it's because my boyfriend and I probably took our dog Herbie on a trip through one of our National Parks in our camper, Vando Calrissian. We want to visit them all one day.

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I was always fairly active, but fitness didn't become a big part of my life until I endured a health challenge in 2015. After months of feeling crummy I reignited my passion for movement, moved to Michigan in early 2020, and am now so fortunate to have built a life I love helping people achieve their potential. I’ve taught rowing & Lagree for 2 years. I love Lagree because it doesn't just challenge our bodies -- slow, controlled movements require as much mental stamina as physical!

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Nicole Brooks

HOMETOWN: Royal Oak, MI

FAVORITE MOVE: BUNGEE! Instant butt lift and sneaky ab strengthening. The core is working overtime to stabilize the body while in a tabletop position and REALLY isolates the glutes!

FUN FACT: I am a twin!

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I fell in love with group fitness after getting married and moving back to Michigan from Chicago. I love the social aspect pre and post class, and I find myself working extra hard when I can see how hard everyone else is working! I’ve taught Barre for 5 years and now Lagree! I really enjoy finding new ways to move my body, and with Lagree I was hooked! It’s increased my strength and flexibility postpartum while still having fun and classes FLY by!

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Raven

HOMETOWN: Detroit, MI

FAVORITE MOVE: Saw and Wheelbarrow! We think we can modify a plank and make it crazy easy but proper form, hip height, and tucking the tailbone can fire things up. Then you add the movement! Whoo watch out!

FUN FACT: I taught my dog how to talk with buttons!

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I've always been around fitness. Sports in high school, some in college, always open to new ways to move my body and get a workout. Rowing, boxing, running, strength training, you name it! I tried Lagree for the first time & it targeted my body (and core) like I've never felt before. Safe to say I'm hooked now!

STUDIO MANAGER: BERKLEY

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Jacqueline Reneuad

HOMETOWN: Goodrich, MI

FAVORITE MOVE: Catfish! There’s just something about the positioning that makes Catfish so fun! It’s tough, but feels so good on my back!

FUN FACT: I love to crochet!

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I’ve been an athlete my whole life! Growing up, I played almost every sport imaginable. I ran 5 years of cross country and track for Northwood University (Go T-Wolves!), am a high school girls basketball state champion, and have ran two full marathons and six half marathons.

INSTRUCTOR

Apple Music:

HOMETOWN: Grosse Ile, MI

FAVORITE MOVE: 5th Lunge!  Love the way this works my glutes and hamstrings. I find working legs at the back of the machine to be so fun and challenging especially with the stretch behind the working leg as the carriage is pulling to the front of the machine.

FUN FACT: I'm a total foodie! I love trying new restaurants and different types of foods. 

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I have a strong love for all things wellness and fitness. I started my fitness journey in early high school getting my first gym membership at 15. I’ve always loved challenging myself and trying new things from spin classes, to personal trainers, yoga and Lagree to push myself outside of my comfort zone. I've been a student of Lagree for 3 years and have fallen in love with the mental and physical challenge of this workout. It inspires me to support others in achieving their fitness and personal goals. Lagree has been by far one of the most humbling workouts I've ever done and I fell in love with the way it has increased my mental toughness and changed my body.

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I have been active my whole life. I played a variety of sports growing up and swam competitively for 13 years. I was a swim coach for two years and started an adult swim lesson program in college. I discovered Lagree when I was living in the Bay Area and fell in love. I love a workout that gives me a physical and mental challenge and with Lagree two years later I find I’m still challenged every class. I also recently got back into running and have been signing up for half marathons.

HOMETOWN: Romulus, MI 

FAVORITE MOVE: Reverse Angel

FUN FACT: I have chickens and a parrot. 

FITNESS BACKGROUND: With a deep passion for health, wellness, and movement, I’ve dedicated my career to helping others feel their best—both inside and out. As a registered nurse, I’ve seen firsthand how vital proactive care and healthy habits are to long-term well-being. My work in healthcare has fueled my commitment to empowering others through education, compassion, and preventative care.

Alongside nursing, I’m so excited to have the opportunity to be a Modern Pilates instructor, blending science and movement to help people build strength, improve mobility, and reconnect with their bodies. I believe that fitness isn’t just about how we look—it’s about how we live, heal, and thrive. Whether I’m working in a clinical setting or leading a Core (LP) class, my goal is always the same: to support others in becoming the healthiest version of themselves.

One of my goals in life is tO make others happy which is why I’m so excited to be able to coach others in doing the same!
