The feel-good fitness franchise now has 63 GTA locations. Catering to self-conscious or inexperienced gym-goers, Curves emits a warm and fuzzy mood. Welcoming staff lead first-timers through an in-depth “figure analysis” and goal-setting session, and then demonstrate the equipment. Members follow a set 30-minute workout, using a circuit of machines that address all five components of a complete exercise plan: warm-up, cardio, strength, cool down and stretching. Dance music blares from the speakers; prompted by a recorded voice, exercisers move to a new station every 30 seconds.
How much:
initiation fee $99–$199, monthly fee $49.
