    In this episode, host Michael Chipman sits down with Laura Kosinski (KYSKO Studios, Geneva) to explore how offering Pilates and Lagree side-by-side lets her tailor programs to each client. Laura shares why rigorous, consistent coach training and requiring instructors to be active Lagree practitioners protect quality, while curiosity and intelligent variations keep classes engaging. She discusses her organic expansion (Switzerland, Saint-Tropez, Bali), balancing growth with new-twins family life, and the keys to a profitable, accessible studio - the right space and cost, fair coach pay, and smart amenities - all in service of making Lagree available to more people.
