Tracy Anderson's Mediterranean Inspired Hamptons Home Is Missing the One Room You'd Expect-a Gym

"The wellness pioneer Tracy Anderson is sitting in the living room of her historic captain's house in Sag Harbor, New York, waiting patiently-post-workout, sipping a smoothie-for her weekly delivery of flower arrangements. It's easy to picture her crafting her trademark workouts in a photogenic studio (she had 27 hours of choreographed movement to plan that day) but the mother of two prefers the cozier environs of her gym-free home."

"Anderson and Kamel credit their introduction to none other than Madonna, whose charity non-profit, Raising Malawi, had tapped Kamel's firm to help develop concepts for a school in Africa. So when Anderson, who was Madonna's trainer, decided to open a studio in Tribeca, she called on Ronen Lev, which Kamel co-founded with Christina Akiskalou, to design the space. (Gwyneth Paltrow, another longtime training client of Anderson, also hired the firm to design all of Goop's retail spaces.)"

Tracy Anderson favors creating workouts in the intimate setting of her historic Sag Harbor captain's house rather than a photogenic studio. She plans extensive choreographed movement from home, surrounded by limewash walls, weekly flower deliveries, and pets. Jessica Kamel of Ronen Lev, a longtime friend and collaborator, tailored the interior to Anderson's preferences and lifestyle with a European sensibility. The professional relationship traces back to Madonna and Kamel's prior work on Raising Malawi and collaborations that led Anderson to commission Ronen Lev for her Tribeca studio and other retail projects.
