The sad reality Small business owner are facing. Please support small businesses in your community.

75% will only be back to business at level-2 and level-1;

53% applied for relief-funding;
6% who applied for relief-funding were successful;

94% are either in a cash-flow crisis situation or will be within the next few weeks;

63% have laid-off their workforce or expect to do so within the next few weeks;

79% expect not to survive the pandemic or are unsure;

53% state that government is not communicating effectively with regards to lockdown regulations and restrictions;

We miss the gym so much. And now they have broken into it during lockdown as if we can take a further knock.

We love Curves.

A happy freedom day from all the staff at Curves De Tyger to our lovely members! Stay safe, we miss you guys

To all our Muslim members, have a blessed month ahead of you!

Well done yet again to our hardworking members not allowing the lockdown to get between them and their workouts! Keep going ladies.

Dear Member,

I hope and trust that you are well and that you and your family are safe. This has certainly been really trying times for us all and the uncertainty is something we have never experienced before.

I really wanted to reach out to each of our members to thank you for your loyal support throughout the years. We would not be able to survive this situation without your support. You truly are family to us.

The upside of owning a small business is the family like relationships we build with our members and customers from the first time we meet. The downside is that during times like this we unfortunately take the biggest knock.

Big chain stores are more likely to survive these uncharted territories and small individual owned businesses will take months to get back on their feet or eventually close their doors, but together we can make a difference.

I would personally like to encourage each of you that once we are all back out in society to make extra effort to support a local small business. Your local corner green grocer, or a new business woman running her own salon from home or selling beauty products online need you now more than ever.

Let’s stand together as strong women and ensure that we all get up and survive this historic tragedy. We can turn this into victory!

With this being said I also understand that not only are small businesses really suffering but the true hero’s that make these businesses a success are also not able to provide for their families. The people that get up in the morning to put food on the table for their families are now also stuck with uncertainty of where the next pay check will come from, if any. We are all in the same boat and my heart goes out to each and every one!

The massive snowball effect this has on the normal household is frightening and we are all waiting in anticipation to see what the outcome will be.

Our motto at Curves has always been “Stronger Together” even before it was adopted by South Africa during the Rugby World Cup last year. As a team we believe, now more than ever, we can only succeed if we stand together.

As you know we have taken our workouts online and we are doing the best we can under the circumstances to provide our sisters with resources to stay active at home and stay on track with goals. If you have not yet joined our groups then please follow the links to join our “Members Only” groups on WhatsApp for workouts, recipes and motivation:

We Curves de Tyger will do whatever we can to support our members during this time even if it means we have to take a few steps back to rebuild the business. Unfortunately we are not a corporate business which means we also rely on our members’ support just as you rely on us.

The financial impact in penalty fees is enormous and we are all trying our best to prevent any further or extra expenses at this stage. So please communicate with us directly before reversing debit orders.

Last but not least we wish you the best for the next two weeks and thank you for supporting us. We can’t wait to see each of you again in person. Please continue to share your workouts with us on our platforms and please stay positive and active!

Kindest regards and Curves love,
Curves de Tyger
