WELCOME TO OUR STUDIO

WHO WE ARE

OUR PHILOSOPHY

PlankHaus emerged from a deep passion for the Lagree method and a strong commitment to mental health and holistic wellness. We embrace a comprehensive perspective on health and well-being that nurtures both mind and body. This is why we’ve chosen a workout that is not only physically challenging but also mentally therapeutic, complemented by tailored wellness events featuring local expert practitioners. We are excited to be one of the first studios equipped with the innovative Mega Pro machines, enhancing your Lagree experience with the latest cutting-edge features.

In our 50-minute sessions, we embrace a distinctive 95/5 approach, where 95% of the time is devoted to the invigorating Lagree method. The remaining 5% is reserved for a serene closing moment, allowing your heart rate to lower, your body to relax, and your mind to find tranquility. This is your time to honor the effort you've put in and to celebrate your achievements.

MEET THE FOUNDER

NATALIE GRIMSLEY

Hails from Asheville North Carolina, but her formative years were spent in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, just outside Philadelphia. She earned her Bachelor's Degree in Political Science from Villanova University and later pursued a Master's Degree in International Relations and Government at St. John’s University in Rome, Italy. Additionally, she holds a Certificate in International Law and Diplomacy. After dedicating eight years to a career in real estate, Natalie realized she sought a path that offered a deeper sense of fulfillment. During her time as a realtor, she became certified in Life Coaching, inspired by the transformative effects it had on her own life, she was eager to help others experience similar growth.

In March 2022, she made the leap to California to pursue her dream of living out West and transitioned to full-time Life Coaching, connecting with clients globally through TikTok. While in California, she discovered the Lagree method, which resonated with her as a former competitive athlete, providing both a physical challenge and a means to explore mindfulness, ultimately benefiting her overall well-being. This passion led her to become a certified Lagree Trainer, paving the way for her to open her own studio. Natalie expresses her gratitude to all the teachers, trainers, and local studio owners whose classes inspired her vision; without their positive influence, her dream might not have materialized.

Now residing in Ocean Park, she enjoys her daily routine of grabbing coffee on Main Street and strolling through Ocean View Park with her dog Dolly and going to the Main Street Farmer’s Market for fresh flowers on Sundays. As an engaged community member, she eagerly anticipates becoming a vital part of the neighborhood by opening her studio on Main Street, offering a sanctuary for individuals to escape their daily hustle while challenging their bodies and aligning their minds.  

Natalie is excited to harness her passion for helping individuals cultivate inner resilience and strength, drawing from her life coaching background. At PlankHaus, she aims to create unique experiences for clients through daily Lagree classes and specially designed mindfulness events that delve into the advantages of meditation, breathwork, and beyond. Her goal is to foster a space that embodies inclusivity, community, empowerment, and strength. She is excited to open the doors and connect with you as you sculpt your best self, mind, body and spirit.
