I'm pretty sure I found VF in 1997. I used to troll the 'New Releases' page. Never knew about the Forum. Like a lot of us, I found the reviews first.
I did Kathy Smith's Pregnancy Workout with my first DD (1991) and, yes, I giggled every time she did her 'dance.' Back then, it was only VHS and that one set me back over $30. But I did it every day so I got my money's worth. I tripped on the original Firm Classic #1 with Susan Harris in 1996 at FYE and the rest, as they say, is history. I found Cathe about the same time. I don't even remember the name, but her sister was in the video. I don't post much, but the support and information over the years has been priceless.

That's about the time I joined, too. I hated that software in which the threads and postings were similar to makeupalley.com's (which they STILL use which is why I never post there). So I left VF for a few years and continued exercising on my own, then rejoined later.

I joined in May, 1996. There are some people still here who were around, but many who aren't.
I remember the forum going down a LOT. I remember that you used to get all the threads "threaded" like you might see in your inbox, they were all in a list. Nothing fancy. I remember the big talk being Cathe and the Firm...mainly because I'd never tried either of them and within a short time, I bought my first of both. The next year the Firmlist (the old one) came up and I first heard about it here, and joined it on its second day (Sept 1997). The following year was my first trip to the Firm in SC (the old Charleston studio). I've met a bunch of people from VF and VF has also led to many other cyberfriends as well, many that I have had the opportunity to meet IRL. None of that would have happened without VF. VF changed my life...and led me to some very close friendships.
