Data processors in other countries To provide you with services, we may use service providers, data processors and other third parties to perform services on our behalf. These third parties may store, process and transfer personal information on servers located outside of Canada in jurisdictions whose data protection laws may differ from those of Canada, which may include the United States of America. As a result, personal information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, or law enforcement in those jurisdictions according to the laws in those jurisdictions. For example, information may be shared in response to valid demands or requests from government authorities, courts and law enforcement officials in those countries. Subject to applicable laws in such other jurisdictions, we will use reasonable efforts to ensure that appropriate protections are in place to require our third parties to maintain protections on personal information that are equivalent to those that apply in Canada. 7. Links to other sites The site may contain links to other websites or internet resources, notably those belonging to our sponsors, partners or collaborators. When you click on one of those links you are contacting another website or internet resource that may collect information about you voluntarily or through cookies or other technologies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of any sites owned and operated by any third parties. Other sites may collect and treat information collected differently, so we encourage you to carefully read and review the privacy policy of each site you visit. 8. Providing credit card information on our site If you make a credit card payment through MTAC, we request the information reasonably needed by us to complete the processing of the transaction. For one-time payments, when you provide payment information, such as credit card numbers, credit card security codes, name on your credit card and expiration dates, we transmit this data directly from you to the credit card processing company; MTAC only stores the credit card type, the last four digits of the credit card number and the expiration date in the event an incorrect payment needs to be refunded. MTAC will send you a confirmation email to confirm successful credit card charges. For pre-authorized debits for recurring payments, all information is stored by MTAC or third parties acting on our behalf, in an encrypted manner (i.e., coded data) such that only those who require access to update financial information can see the credit card number. The encrypted data is provided at the appropriate intervals to the credit card processing company. We may also share your personal information with third parties including credit card processing companies in order to bill you, but we do not provide any more information than reasonably necessary for this purpose. 9. Cookies, web beacons and other similar technology As you interact with the services, we may use automatic data collection technology and services that record and collect information that identifies your computer, tracks your use of this site and collects certain other information about you and your surfing habits. This data collection technology may include cookies, web beacons and other similar devices on this site to enhance functionality and navigation for our visitors.

Being able to access our cookies allows us to personalize this site and improve your experience at this site.

Les calottes froides agissent en resserrant les vaisseaux sanguins de votre cuir chevelu et en empêchant la chimiothérapie d'attaquer les follicules pileux qui provoquent la chute des cheveux.

LAGREE CORE Saturday, April 5 1:00 - 1:50 PM | In Person SIGN UP HERE 4142 Ste Catherine St Ouest The Lagree Core Method is a high-intensity, low-impact workout designed to push your limits and deliver unmatched results. Unlike traditional Pilates, Lagree is a unique fitness method rooted in time under tension and muscle overload—two fundamental principles of bodybuilding that maximize muscle activation, endurance, and overall strength. Each movement is performed with slow, controlled precision, keeping muscles engaged for an extended period to create deep, effective fatigue—that’s when the burn kicks in, and the shakes start! Rapid transitions between exercises keep your heart rate elevated, seamlessly combining strength and cardio for an all-encompassing, full-body workout. By engaging multiple muscle groups at once, Lagree builds long, lean muscles while improving endurance, balance, and flexibility—all without impact on the joints or spine. This isn’t Pilates—it’s next-level fitness. Lagree is intense, transformative, and designed for those ready to push past their limits and redefine what their bodies can do. Register Now!
