“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” -Margaret Mead
It’s amazing what a small committed group can accomplish when the environment, the culture, and the dedication are present. When we reflect on the past year and where Greater Culture started to where it is now, it really makes us step back and appreciate what has transpired. From the first few workouts in a garage gym that did not have nearly as much equipment as we have now, to having a fully operational garage affiliate, we love what has grown.
We started this adventure because we believe that we have the tools to help make a positive difference in people’s lives and build mentally and physically more confident people. We set our mission statement and our values, and started off. Over the year we learned a lot, and at the heart of it was us working to provide the best possible experience for our members. One of the statistics we are most proud of is that we have 100% retention over the year. This means that everyone who decided they wanted to join Greater Culture is still with us. We have witnessed incredible personal bests, physical and mental changes, and a community that supports and encourages one another in all situations.
The holiday party was an incredibly meaningful moment for all of us. We were able to share good food, good laughs, and watch as the memories from the last year flashed across the screen. We are excited to continue building our small and mighty community to help others realize what is possible in their lives and share what we are building. We look forward to the next year of growth, challenge, inspiration, and doing it all through a lens of optimism because those are the four pillars that support our culture.
Let’s cheers to the past year, and get ready for 2024!
