Our TEAM
Liz Collins
Founder & Owner
In 2012, I found Lagree Fitness™. Never before had I experienced a workout that not only physically challenged me, but left me as mentally and emotionally satisfied after just one, 45-minute session. Two years later I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. While juggling the roles of wife, mother and full-time employee, time management was key and Lagree was my answer. 3 days of Lagree Fitness per week, and I was in the best shape of my life. 10+ years later and I still crave the MEGA BURN.
The efficiency and effectiveness of the Lagree Fitness Method™ keeps me strong physically, mentally and emotionally. I opened Coastal Core with the ultimate goal of helping others to become the best version of themselves. My team is here to support, inspire and motivate you along the way. See you at the studio!

Lisa Lucarelli
Instructor
Lisa is a yoga teacher who fell in love with the Mega! Lisa left the office life back in 2013 and rediscovered her love for yoga. In 2015, she received her 200 hour yoga certification from Younique Yoga to teach hot vinyasa. The more she practiced she realized her personal workout was lacking something. A friend introduced her to the Mega and she never looked back. The Lagree Method™ connected with her soul and she found the incredible balance of yoga and Lagree. In 2019 she signed on for certification! She loves the mind/body connection and the ability to find strength in your breath. Expect to laugh, have fun and not take yourself too seriously in a "Lisa" class. And if she's not at Coastal you can find her at Younique Yoga, or Basque Hot Yoga.
