MEET CLARISSE

Studio Owner & Instructor

Clarisse is a nurse at UCLA Health and has been in the profession since 2012. She is a proud mother of two boys: her eldest, age 7, has Trisomy 21, and her youngest is 3 years old. Born and raised in the Philippines, Clarisse holds a Bachelor of Science in Tourism and previously worked in banking and travel before relocating to the United States.


After discovering Lagree Fitness, Clarisse was drawn to its efficient 45-minute workouts, which helped her recover from postpartum diastasis recti. She is passionate about supporting parents of children with special needs, new mothers, and women in the postpartum stage. This inspiration led her to establish her own Lagree studio, where she aims to help others feel stronger and more confident.


Additionally, she is the co-founder of Clarisse Jewels, an online personal shopping store, and is dedicated to fostering an inclusive and empowering community for individuals at every stage of their fitness journey.
