New York Pilates opened a Montauk studio in 2017, and this year it’s expanding to Southampton. The new location will officially launch over the July 4 holiday, with signature Pilates reformer classes and activations like a Sakara Life pop-up.

Flywheel

You can spin all summer long at Flywheel’s East Hampton studio, which will continue hosting its annual “RPM & Rosé” class at 4:45 p.m. every Friday in July and August. What better incentive to peddle furiously than the chance to sip some Wölffer Estate wine afterwards? Flywheel.

You’ll be exhausted by the time you leave the 50-minute “Strength, Lengthen, Tone” workout, which is now in East Hampton and Southampton, but you’ll definitely get in shape using the Megaformer. Classes are available at both studios throughout the summer, and guests can also check out Stretch*d sessions. SLT.
