Juices, in Theory
Theory stores in East Hampton and Southampton have added organic juices to their offerings this summer. Partnering with Organic Avenue, a New York juice and vegan food provider, Theory’s South Fork retail locations will each have a stand-alone fridge with a variety of bottled juices, “booster shots” of juices like aloe, wheatgrass, and ginger, and even children’s juices.
“It’s a mini retail store inside our retail store,” Julianna Simmons, a public relations manager for Theory, said over the phone earlier this month. The Organic Avenue pop-ups opened at the East Hampton and Southampton stores on Saturday. Organic Avenue will also provide “concierge” cleanse services, according to a release.
In East Hampton, Theory is at 46 Newtown Lane. The Southampton store is at 98-100 Main Street. Both are open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Fitness, Inside and Out
Integrated Fitness and Lifestyle Design From the Inside Out, a new venture launched by Michelle Weber, a certified mind-body personal trainer and holistic health coach, is conducting private and group sessions in June, July, and August at Philosofit in East Hampton.
Ms. Weber also schedules home sessions in Gyrotonic, Gyrokinesis, Pilates, and dance on the South Fork and in New York.
