Tracy Anderson has spent more than 20 years building up her celebrity client list to include the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow, J-Lo and Madonna - but her A-list-approved empire now appears to have been thrown into turmoil amid bitter accusations that her Hamptons studio has dissolved into a 'chaotic mess.' The 47-year-old has enticed the most affluent members by setting up studios across Los Angeles, New York and Madrid - with TA memberships becoming a kind of 'status symbol' in their own right. But it seems that the tide could be turning on her popularity as she now faces fury from her clients in upscale New York weekend spot the Hamptons over $5,500 mat fees, $90 classes and power struggles among 'queen bees', according to a report by Insider.
It is not the first time Anderson has been hit with controversy in recent months after her ex-employees came forward to reveal the toxic culture of paranoia, legal threats, and grueling work conditions. Over the past two decades, Tracy Anderson's name has become synonymous with fitness and well-being among the elite of society. Patrons, who sign up as much for the prestige as the workouts, pay $900 per month to learn her Tracy Anderson Method - a dance-based workout in a room heated to 95 degrees with 75 per cent humidity. But devotees across her two locations in the Hamptons - the Sag Harbor and Water Mill studios - told Insider that the studios have 'turned into a chaotic, overpriced mess.'

And their biggest gripe appears to be the skyrocketing prices. For instance, on top of their hefty monthly membership costs there is also a fee to reserve a mat for the summer - which essentially allows people to save their favorite spots in class. The publication states that in 2018 the price was already a hefty $3,000 but, as of this year, it has risen to a staggering $5,500. Anderson has also been keen to push her 'Vitality Week' at Sag Harbor, which this year runs from August 17 to 21. It promises everything 'from specialized classes and lectures with Tracy, to a summer soirée under the stars.'
But the $5,995 price tag has potential clients balking - particularly because it is more than triple the cost of the same event held in 2012 - then called Hamptons Detox Week. Dani Levi, who works as a makeup artist and is a TA member in the Hamptons, told the outlet: 'It's a little bit ridiculous.' Additionally, the type of wealthy client that Anderson's studio attracts has also given rise to favoritism and power struggles.
One former Hamptons trainer told Insider: 'They're queen bees September through May in Tribeca but when they're mixed together the dynamics shift. 'That's the point of this whole thing: power and "I have money" and "Do you know who I am? Do you know where I live?"' Much of the tension reportedly arises between long-time members who feel 'entitled' and younger non-members who do drop-in classes. Pictured: Sag Harbor studio.
Anderson charges up to $90 per 55-minute drop-in session at the prestigious locations, which is much pricier than its closest competitors. Before the summer season began, the Hamptons studio manager left and is yet to be replaced - leaving no one with their 'finger on the pulse.' FEMAIL has contacted a representative of Tracy Anderson for comment. The latest claims come just months after former employees started speaking out about what goes on behind closed doors to reveal a bombshell tale of legal threats, paranoia, and grueling working conditions.
One former employee claimed that Anderson was left paralyzed with fear that someone 'smarter and better was going to steal her stuff,' and had instigated legal proceedings against a handful of ex-trainers who she branded as 'second-rate copycats.' Another source said that their bodies were pushed to 'breaking' point with the level of intensity demanded from employees, with the heat of the studios also leaving them 'exhausted and dehydrated.'
