Experience the Power of Group Fitness: A Record-Breaking Lagree Class
In a remarkable convergence of fitness and community spirit, the Longevity Wellness Hub collaborated with DIFC and Lagree Fitness to host an unprecedented fitness event—recording the largest Lagree class ever held. With an impressive turnout of 253 enthusiastic participants working out on Microformers, this event took place beneath the iconic DIFC Gate, making fitness history.
An Electrifying Atmosphere
The event garnered the attention of Guinness World Records officials, who were present to validate and commemorate this monumental achievement. Guided by Sebastien Lagree, the visionary behind the Lagree Method, participants engaged in two consecutive 45-minute sessions. Training against the breathtaking backdrop of the Dubai skyline, with the Museum of the Future prominently in view, added an inspiring element to the workout.
The Lagree Method: Strength Meets Endurance
The energy of the event was palpable, amplified by live music that played as the participants moved in unison on the specialized Microformers. The Lagree Method is unique in its ability to blend Pilates-inspired exercises with a bodybuilding intensity that enhances both strength and endurance, while prioritizing joint health—a crucial factor for anyone embarking on a fitness journey.
Sebastien Lagree expressed his joy, stating, “This is the first time I’ve ever broken a world record. To have that many people there, and to do this with my son as the DJ, was incredibly overwhelming and amazing.” The inclusion of his son as the live DJ added a personal touch to this already monumental event, creating a vibrant atmosphere of connection and inspiration.
