MegaMode ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

MegaMode is a specialist fitness studio in Melbourne CBD, located at Level 1, 43 Hardware Lane. The studio focuses on Lagree Fitness, a high-intensity, low-impact training method performed on the Megaformer. The format combines strength, cardio, endurance, flexibility and body composition work, with controlled movements designed to challenge the whole body. MegaMode describes itself as Melbourne’s home of Lagree Fitness and says it is the city’s only studio offering the method.

There are several ways to train, depending on your experience and preferred intensity. Megaformer Basics covers the fundamental Lagree exercises and is designed for people new to the Megaformer as well as returning clients. Megaformer Intermediate is intended for those wanting to build strength and performance further. The heated programme includes MegaHEAT, a full-body class combining resistance bands, dumbbells and bodyweight exercises; MegaHEAT+, which adds two to three stronger cardio bursts; and MegaHEAT Strength, which uses heavier weights and slower movements in a studio heated to 30°C. MegaHEAT and MegaHEAT+ can include low-impact options and are described as suitable for all fitness levels.

For a gentler, technique-focused option, MegaHEAT FORM centres on form and alignment, combining mat Pilates with elements of Lagree, Pilates props and dumbbells. The studio also lists MegaHEAT FORM FLOW, while its class information describes the FORM workout as a 45-minute full-body session aimed at strength, balance and mobility. Together, the range gives beginners, experienced Megaformer clients and people seeking a heated workout different entry points into the studio’s approach.

The atmosphere is presented as friendly and welcoming, with a team of trainers including Nadine, Zaiya, Leona, Bonnie, Lucinda, Stevie, Selina, Christie, Jarupa and Tayla. MegaMode’s story began with founder Kylie, who brought the workout she discovered while living in Hong Kong back to Melbourne. The business first operated as K-Kore, opening in Port Melbourne before establishing a CBD presence and later becoming MegaMode with co-owner Steph Wong. Its current studio sits around the corner from the former Goldie Place location, in the heart of Hardware Lane.

This is a practical choice for solo clients looking for coached, structured training, whether they are trying a Megaformer for the first time or building on existing experience. New clients can access an offer of five classes for $50, and bookings can be made through the MegaMode app, including selecting a bike and a bag. A Google rating of 4.6 from 91 reviews provides an additional indication of its local reception.
