A sweet milestone today! 34 years ago, we opened the doors to the very first Curves. It was certainly a beautiful, full season—we had so many amazing experiences! Some of the best were listening and learning of the stories of women who had great success in many ways…among them learning that their beauty is a full package! Outward and mostly Inward! I remember the early days so clearly. I always had a box of tissues close by, because these women were amazing! They faced their fears, they CONQUERED, and they learned to love themselves! I had so many meaningful, fun, and challenging experiences too! Walking the Great Wall of China for 30 days with Olivia Newton John to raise awareness of cancer. Creating our very own magazine that celebrated women and getting to throw the first pitch at the Rangers vs White socks game 🤓! Most of all though, I believe the team of people we were blessed to work with might be the biggest highlight- our staff, our franchisees, our members and everyone who we met along the way…so passionate, so committed and so caring! Like I said it was full! Gary and I are grateful beyond words, so thank you to everyone who was in our arena! 💗Diane and Gary Diane Heavin .Curves Founders.
