The lagree studio Columbus, Ohio has been waiting for

What Is Lagree?

Lagree is not your average workout. Developed by fitness innovator Sebastien Lagree, the Lagree Method is a scientifically designed, full-body training system that combines strength, endurance, cardio, balance, and flexibility — all in one 50-minute session.

Performed on the Megaformer machine, Lagree uses slow, controlled movements under constant tension to deeply engage the slow-twitch muscle fibers most traditional workouts miss. The result? A low-impact workout that's incredibly high in intensity — challenging enough to push elite athletes, yet accessible enough for beginners, seniors, and those recovering from injury.

Unlike HIIT or traditional weightlifting, Lagree keeps your heart rate elevated while minimizing stress on your joints. You'll work harder than you ever have — and feel better doing it.

What makes Lagree different:

  • Targets slow-twitch muscle fibers for lean, toned results

  • Low-impact, joint-friendly movement

  • Builds strength and cardio simultaneously

  • Delivers visible results faster than conventional training

  • Suitable for every fitness level

Why Soma Lab?

Soma Lab Is Columbus' Best Lagree Studio

There are other places to work out in Columbus. There's only one Soma Lab.

We built Soma Lab Fitness from the ground up to be the premier Lagree experience in Columbus, Ohio — not just a studio with Megaformers in it, but a full environment designed to elevate every part of your session.

World-Class Instruction Our Lagree instructors are deeply trained in the methodology, not just the movements. They understand the why behind every slow, intentional rep — and they'll coach you through it with precision, energy, and genuine care. Whether it's your first class or your fiftieth, you'll always be pushed, supported, and seen.

A Studio That Feels Different Walk into Soma Lab and you'll notice immediately — this isn't a typical gym. Our New Albany studio is clean, beautifully designed, and carries the kind of calm, elevated energy that makes you want to stay. Members consistently describe it as a spa-like escape that also happens to give them the hardest workout of their lives.

Community That Keeps You Coming Back Lagree works best with consistency — and consistency is easy when you genuinely love where you train. At Soma Lab, you'll find a community of people who show up for themselves and each other. Our members don't just get results; they build friendships, accountability, and a routine they're proud of.

More Than Lagree While Lagree is at our core, Soma Lab Fitness also offers VersaClimber and Yoga — giving you a complete wellness ecosystem under one roof. Tone and build with Lagree, elevate your cardio with VersaClimber, and restore your mind and body with Yoga. No other Columbus studio offers all three at this level.

Built by Columbus, For Columbus

Soma Lab Fitness was founded by Columbus native Olivia Mendoza, who discovered the Lagree method after years of searching for a workout that truly delivered. The transformation she experienced, both physically and mentally, inspired her to bring Lagree back to the New Albany community in a way it had never been done before.

The name says it all. Soma comes from the Ancient Greek word for body in its most complete, holistic sense. The lab is where the work happens — the experimentation, the sweat, the growth. Together, Soma Lab is a place where you come to do the real work and leave feeling like a better version of yourself.


"I truly believe that our clients have the potential to make meaningful changes in their lives. If I can do it, so can you."

-Olivia Mendoza, Founder
