CoreLab Launches in Los Angeles, Redefining Strength with Lagree, Mobility, and Mindful Recovery

On a quiet morning in Los Angeles, the hum of city life fades the moment you step into CoreLab. The air is calm, yet charged with a subtle energy like the pause before a deep breath. Founder and CEO Seda Sahin envisioned this exact feeling when she created CoreLab: a sanctuary where intensity meets intention, and where strength is measured not only in how much you can lift, but in how deeply you can exhale.

A Vision Born from Balance

Sahin’s philosophy was shaped by years of observing the wellness industry’s extremes: high-intensity workouts that left bodies depleted and restorative practices that did not always build lasting physical capacity. She saw a gap. What if a fitness experience could be both powerful and restorative, rooted in science yet mindful in approach?

“I wanted to create a space where science-backed training meets ancient wellness practices,” Sahin explains. “Because true strength comes from balance.”

That idea became CoreLab, a holistic fitness studio specializing in Lagree Fitness, a core-based method using slow, controlled movement to achieve high-intensity muscle activation, combined with recovery-driven practices like mobility flow, breathwork, and sound healing. Lagree may remind you of Pilates—but it’s a high-intensity evolution that takes core strength to the next level.

Beyond the Workout

CoreLab’s signature format is a 55-minute session that blends 45 minutes of Lagree training with 10 minutes of mobility flow. This pairing delivers the muscular burn that builds strength and the restorative movement that enhances flexibility and supports joint health.

“Our approach combines intensity with intentional recovery,” says Sahin. “We challenge you to push your limits, then teach you how to restore your body and mind.”

Clients leave with greater strength, improved mobility, and a renewed sense of focus.

The Power of the Lagree Method: Strength and Mobility Combined

CoreLab’s edge comes from its use of the innovative Lagree Fitness Method, which blends high-intensity strength training with low-impact movement. This unique combination ensures effective results while safeguarding the body from strain. Lagree Fitness Senior Master Trainer Maggie O’Brien, a respected name in the Lagree community, supports CoreLab’s trainers with their continuous education.

“Incorporating a short Mobility Flow at the end of class has been a great addition,” O’Brien says. “Lagree already delivers unparalleled results—enhancing flexibility and mobility while building muscular endurance and strength. Finishing with myofascial release techniques further helps relieve tension, support recovery, and leave clients feeling their best.”

Holistic Fitness, Elevated

CoreLab is more than a fitness studio. The space is minimal yet welcoming, designed with intention down to the last playlist. Every element invites clients to be present, from the miniformer machines to the curated lighting.

In addition to their signature Lagree + mobility training, CoreLab offers:

• Breathwork and sound healing for stress relief and mental clarity.

• Corporate wellness programs with onsite and offsite options.

• Functional mobility training to improve posture, range of motion and reduce injury risk.

The goal is integration, treating movement and stillness as equally important for personal growth.

A Community that Moves Together

CoreLab’s tight-knit community is part of its identity. Here, clients are not just numbers on a roster.

“I came for the workout, but I stayed for the way CoreLab makes me feel, stronger, calmer, and more connected,” says one member.

Another adds, “CoreLab is the first studio where I feel like my fitness and my wellness are on the same team.”

Why CoreLab Stands Apart

Many studios offer high-intensity classes, and some provide recovery experiences, but CoreLab is one of the few in Los Angeles that fully integrates both. Its commitment to precision ensures clients move well and progress safely, and its offerings allow members to address multiple aspects of wellness in one location.

“At CoreLab, we believe that strength is not just physical,” Sahin says. “It is mental, emotional, and deeply personal. We created CoreLab for people who want to feel powerful in their bodies, clear in their minds, and connected to a supportive community.”

CoreLab offers a setting where performance training and mindful recovery work together. Sessions are designed for individuals seeking both physical capability and mental clarity.

In addition to their regular classes, CoreLab offers corporate wellness programs, private events, and vibrant fitness day parties powered by CoreLab DayTrip, providing teams and communities with unique opportunities to move, recover, and connect in an engaging and supportive environment.
