Meet Lauren Petty of Denver , CO

Today we’d like to introduce you to Lauren Petty.

Hi Lauren, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Born and raised in Point Pleasant New Jersey I enjoyed the beach and a small town life as a child. I started modeling and acting at 5 years old and spent countless car trips into NYC where my days were spent mostly with my dad pounding the pavement to bookings and auditions. I spent a few years living in NYC when my career was very busy attending The Professional Performing Arts School. After graduating high school I moved to Los Angeles and quickly found my footing and was successful in the entertainment Industry.

In 2002, I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma and my life was halted and a new life began.

After cancer the most purposeful thing was being a mother to my two beautiful children, and I was blessed to stay at home with them.

I became sober in 2019 and went through a divorce in 2020.

It is then in that moment I needed to find my soul again and build a new career path.

I was introduced to Lagree by a dear friend and it literally saved me mentally and physically. Lagree is a high-intensity, low-impact workout method created by Sebastien Lagree that uses a machine called the Megaformer to provide a full-body, resistance-based exercise.

I am now an Advanced Lagree Instructor teaching all over the Denver area and for Lagreeing at Home.

I am 6 years sober. My children are my soul and I have met my life partner.

LAGREE has taught me discipline , strength , and commitment which guide me through this crazy life.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Being diagnosed with cancer and the powerful journey to beat it.
My daughter being born at 25 weeks weighing 1 pound 12 ounces and her stay for 3.5 months in the Nicu.
The pain to watch my father fight cancer for ten years and his death.
And the biggest struggle , my relationship with alcohol. All of these things have taught me courage and have only made me a stronger human.

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I am an Advanced Lagree Instructor working in the Denver area teaching at Lagroove , Twst Fitness , Buzz and live for Lagreeing at Home. My nickname in the Lagree world is LP.

I am known to be spunky and bring a challenging Lagree class every time following the Lagree method with big energy.
One client calling me a “ feisty little tinkerbell”.

I feel my personality I bring to the room sets me apart from others, I share my life and my love for the Lagree method. I am there to teach a killer class, but also to be my clients biggest supporter mentally and physically.

How do you think about luck?
I have had the luck of meeting my best friend Heather Perren in the Nicu where our babies were staying. That friendship evolved and she introduced me to Lagree. At a time in my life where I was at rock bottom.
Lost , depressed , letting Alacahol control my life. I got certified to teach Lagree 4 days after I stopped drinking. Lagree literally saved me , redefining me and giving me a passion to practice the method and teach the method.
