Christie Long

Owner and Founder

Level 1 & Level 2 Certified Lagree Instructor

Christie has called Visalia home since 2009.  Originally from Southern California, she moved to the central valley with her husband Daniel in 2007 to NAS Lemoore. Celebrating nearly 20 years of marriage they have two amazing children who have grown up in Visalia their entire lives.

Health and wellness have always held a special place in Christie's heart, although she has had times where she let life take over and lost herself.  After years of struggling, she was able to find herself once again through movement and nutrition. Now one of her life's greatest joy's is helping others find their strength, freedom and confidence through fitness. 

Christie holds certifications in Lagree Fitness, training with the master and inventor of the method himself, Sebastien Lagree in Los Angeles. She is additionally certified in Lagree pre-and post-natal specialty as well as 8 advanced Level 2 Lagree training specialties. 

As a long time Yoga student & instructor at The Space Visalia, Christie obtained her 200HR RYT with Yoga Alliance, trained under Kristen McQuaide in LEVITYoGA. As a passionate believer in the power of your breath she became certified 50H Pranayama and Breathwork instructor in 2025.  Her experience in Pilates education is built upon completion of Balanced Body Reformer Pilates certifications levels 1 (led by Patrea Aeschliman) , 2 (led by Tiza Wynn Riley and Roger G. Hibner) & 3 (led by the one and only Tracey Mallett).

For Christie, fitness is not just a practice, it is a lifestyle.  She is always excited to dive deep into education so that she can pass on the best information to her clients as well as implement into her own life.  Experiencing first hand the healing power of movement through many modalities, she aims to help you find your best version of you: Strong, Empowered, Confident.

She is known to tell her students she wants them to leave class feeling so accomplished that they can take on the world.

Kylie Desrochers

Certified Lagree Instructor

With over a decade of experience in the fitness industry, I’ve had the opportunity to teach a wide variety of group fitness formats and help people discover movement that makes them feel strong and capable. I earned my NASM Personal Training and Group Fitness certifications in 2014 and have been teaching group fitness ever since. Over the years, I’ve also earned certifications in Indoor Cycling, Trapeze Yoga, HIGH Fitness, and Level 1 Lagree.

My teaching background includes HIIT, barre, mat Pilates, indoor cycling, and HIGH Fitness, giving me experience across everything from high-energy cardio to controlled, strength-focused movement.

I fell in love with Lagree because it challenges the body in such a unique way. Every movement is performed slowly and with intention, creating an incredible strength-training workout that emphasizes control, endurance, and connection to each movement. I love helping clients push past what they thought they could do while encouraging them to move with purpose, embrace the challenge, and leave class feeling stronger than when they walked in.
