I joined Curves in 2009, paying $59.00 per month. Will my monthly fee rise or will it always remain $59?

There is every chance that your monthly fee will rise. I too joined Curves in 2009 and my monthly fee increased over the years. Currently, it is just under $80-00 per month.

Cancel this Join perhaps weight watchers and walk 45 mins daily, stretch, squat and practice push ups. Don't waste your hard earned money on this type of business.

after you have joined with a automatic withdraw from your checking can they change the time on you and still take your money?

As it's a monthly withdrawal from your account, that just happens. As far as time is concerned, I'm not sure what you mean because there is no set times for classes. Each club has their own opening and closing times.

If you join curves can they increase your membership costs as time goes by? I was told it will always stay on your cost you joined up on. Can anyone advise me on this as my membership price has increased.

I am not completely sure. My membership did not change when I was member but also, my membership fees were discounted as I joined during a promotion, and once the promotion time expired I was paying the usual fees per month. Most gyms readjust pricing when the lease of the premises they are settled increase, so I would guess it is the same with Curves. The only way to be sure about this is to ask Curves directly 1300 287 837 or, even better, send them an email asking this here http://curves.com.au/contact-us. You will have a written proof in case you visit one of their gyms and a staff misinforms you. Also, read the terms and conditions!

Under normal circumstances your membership fees will always remain the same as when you started provided you never left and then rejoined. (Eg: If you joined and the rate was $59 a month but after 2 years you needed to cancel, but then after 6, 7, 8 months etc., you decided to rejoin, the monthly fees may have risen to $79 a month which is what you would not have to pay.
Sometimes we have promotions as we do at the moment. Monthly fees have been halved for 3 months and then come February 2016 your fees would be the normal $79 a month. This would be explained to you at the time of sign up.

Their so called legal document stating that "The Member may continue to maintain this membership, at the above monthly rate for the life of the member or the facility" is not worth the paper its written on. Even though our franchise remained under the same ownership they claimed that the umbrella company of Curves international had changed hands numerous times and therefore the agreement was void- what a load of crock!!

What are women actually looking for in a female only gym? What are your priorities and criteria?

I attend a ladies gym. I was looking for a comfortable male free zone where my excerises can be achieved regardless of strange configurations I put myself into. An all female gym where any age woman feels welcomed. No pink leotards and sweaty head bands! No sweaty male bods admiring themselves in a mirror with various flexes. I read a previous post where an all female gym has a male part owner overseeing women training in that particulate gym. Not on! An invasion of privacy and not respectful.Seems a bit creepy really. I would demand my $$ back and move on. Nothing again men.... I just want to be welcomed at a female gym, that has great equipment and the toilet seat is never up!!!! I have found my serendipity at Aliento in Scoresby Vic. (Even the man delivering fresh towels waits at the bottom of the stairs)

No idea Effie, my review related to the Coburg franchise. I would say though to be aware that Curves head office will not assist you if you have any difficulties with them.
