Yoga studio, activewear retailer moves into Dairy Market [Video]

From racing a marathon in the 2020 Olympic trials to obtaining a Ph.D. in English literature, Ann Mazur has accomplished more than most. Now, she’s adding store owner, fashion designer and entrepreneur to her already-lengthy resume.

After single-handedly running the operation online out of her Charlottesville residence for the past two years, Mazur’s activewear business Relay Active has set up shop in the former Brigid & Bess gift store inside Charlottesville’s Dairy Market food hall.

“Sustainability and really high-quality production is super important to us,” Mazur told The Daily Progress on a morning last week, standing behind the store’s large counter sorting through packages filled with sports bras and shorts.

The shelves and tables inside the redesigned front window space in the Dairy Market are stocked with these items as well as, quite literally, a rainbow of other athletic apparel, including tank tops, leggings, lightweight shirts and hoodies
