WELCOME TO SAN DIEGO’S ORIGINAL Lagree Studio

As the first Lagree studio to open in San Diego in 2009, PPLJ has been redefining fitness with expert instruction, heartfelt service, and a welcoming community.

OUR MISSION & Story

We began with a vision to elevate Lagree, blending innovation, expert guidance, and a supportive Community.

Jessica Shehab, owner and founder of Pilates Plus La Jolla, envisioned bringing the transformative power of Lagree to La Jolla by opening the first studio of its kind in 2009. Motivated by her own passion for the workout, Jessica wanted to enjoy the benefits of Lagree without having to drive to Los Angeles, where the method originated. She recognized that others would love it as much as she did and never doubted its success—she simply had a feeling it would resonate with the community.

Her vision of creating a space that combines strength, connection, and innovation continues to guide everything we do. At Pilates Plus La Jolla, our mission is to provide an innovative, results-driven workout experience in a supportive and motivating environment.

Guided by our core values—strength, innovation, community, and excellence—we inspire our clients to push past their limits and achieve lasting strength, both inside and out. With a focus on integrity and a commitment to excellence, we strive to transform lives and redefine what it means to lead in Lagree fitness.

WHAT IS Lagree?

The Lagree Method offers a high-intensity + low impact workout that is adaptable to everybody. It's the perfect alternative to other high-intensity training options that can potentially damage the body. The Lagree method effectively combines resistance, endurance, core, and cardio training to safely stimulate strength, flexibility, and balance with little to no impact on the body. Men and women of all ages and abilities can benefit from this complete body workout.
