HOMETOWN: Grosse Ile, MI

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 Core (LP) 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. Core (LP) 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'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!

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 Modern Pilates 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 Core (LP) 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.

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: ruchacon

HOMETOWN: Romulus, MI 

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.

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Allia

HOMETOWN: Dearborn, MI

FUN FACT: I have a pet snake!  

FITNESS BACKGROUND: Growing up, I was heavily involved with sports - basketball being my favorite. Becoming a nurse shifted my focus to proper body mechanics, holistic health, and injury prevention. That’s when I found Core (LP). I have fallen in love with the challenge, intensity, and full body conditioning it brings while being accessible to all fitness levels to support longevity in strength and mobility for all.

INSTRUCTOR

Spotify: Alexis Greear

HOMETOWN: Southfield, MI

FUN FACT: I can speak Spanish! 

FITNESS BACKGROUND: Growing up, I was always active — I played tennis, cheered, and trained in gymnastics. But as I got older, I lost that connection to fitness. I tried all kinds of workouts, but I’d get bored and lose motivation.  

Then I tried Core (LP), and it was the first time in years I genuinely enjoyed a workout. I saw results quickly, but more importantly, I finally looked forward to moving my body. Core (LP) brought back my love for fitness, and I loved it so much I became an instructor!

INSTRUCTOR

HOMETOWN: Detroit , MI

FUN FACT: I’m named after my great grandmother 

FITNESS BACKGROUND: I became active during my senior year of high school while preparing for prom, but it wasn’t until my sophomore year of college that I truly connected with fitness. I started going to the gym seven days a week and even trained a few people during that time. Over the years, I remained consistent with my workouts, but I found myself searching for something fresh and exciting. That’s when I discovered Core (LP). It reignited my passion for fitness and helped me reconnect with my body. This experience inspired me to become an instructor so I can help guide others on their own fitness journeys.
