We want to help you...
✔ Get visible and lasting results in less time with efficient and intelligently structured workouts
✔ Overcome stagnation (maybe you no longer see changes with Pilates, gyms or low intensity classes) because Lagree always adapts to any level
✔ Feel strong, toned and confident without overtraining or sacrificing your body
✔ Reclaim your time by combining cardio, strength, mobility and core in a single 45-minute session
✔ Mentally reset — structured, focused movement helps you disconnect, recharge, and refocus
✔ Avoid injuries and burnout with a low-impact, joint-friendly workout you can maintain long-term
✔ Feel supported in an intimate and luxurious environment, with expert guidance and personalized attention

We believe that movement should challenge the body, sharpen the mind and restore your energy.
We created Forma to offer something different: a space where movement is smart, results are intentional, and every workout leaves you stronger — inside and out. As the first Lagree studio in Portugal, our mission is to elevate the way people train by combining science-based exercise with a refined, sophisticated boutique experience. We believe in training smart, not hard; in choosing quality over quantity; and in creating a space where every client feels empowered, inspired, and motivated. Forma is more than a workout — it’s a reset, a ritual, and a return to being your best self.

Elise Silva
Creative Director and Founder
With over 25 years of experience in the wellness, fitness and entertainment industries, she brings a unique combination of creativity, movement expertise, and brand vision to the studio.
A native of California, she began her career as a professional dancer at Disneyland and went on to a successful career in entertainment at Walt Disney World and Disney Cruise Line. After 16 years at Disney, she owned a successful fitness studio in the United States before moving to Portugal. She holds advanced trainer certifications in the Lagree method.
Inspired by her own search for an efficient, low-impact workout that truly transforms the body and sharpens the mind, she launched Forma to bring a new level of fitness to Portugal — smart, sophisticated, and performance-based. As Creative Director, she leads the brand experience, from instructor training to studio design, ensuring that every detail reflects Forma’s core values of strength, empowerment, and transformation.
"When I moved to Portugal, I thought I could leave my Lagree obsession behind… but I quickly realized how much my body, mind, and spirit missed it. After years without the method, I decided to bring it here — not just for myself, but for everyone craving something more from their workouts. I created Forma to be the kind of studio I would love to walk into: beautiful, modern, uplifting, and built around the most effective workout I’ve ever known. My hope is that Forma becomes a motivating, welcoming escape — and that together, we build a truly special Lagree-loving community." - Elise
