Curves isn't the kind of place that you go perv your biceps in the wall to wall mirror. You don't sweat in a dark room with 49 others bicycling, either. You go to be a grown up woman to get a full workout with some fun and dignity thrown in. The owner makes it a fun experience, you always feel like you're part of a team, the staff knows your name, and your kids' names too if you're a sharer. In short - it's the place to go to lose weight, build muscle and be a part of your community.
