Jamie Lee Curtis' filmography is speckled with memorable moments across multiple genres, from horror to comedy to action to...aerobics!

She was pleased to get the chance to highlight another from her 1985 cult classic Perfect opposite John Travolta.

Jamie played an aerobics instructor in the film, with an accordingly envious, toned physique, which was highlighted as a significant part of her character's appeal.

Jamie threw it back to an image from her 1985 film Perfect

She took to her Instagram Stories to repost a still of herself from the film that was shared by clothing brand La Ligne, which she used to promote her own brand My Hand In Yours and the children's charity she supported.

The newly-minted Oscar winner did look incredible in the throwback, wearing a dusty pink striped leotard and leg-warmers that displayed her toned body in the flick.

Jamie plays an aerobics instructor named Jessie who is approached for an interview by journalist Adam, played by John, who is seeking to write an exposé on fitness clubs in Los Angeles.

One of the most well-remembered scenes from the movie features Adam taking a heated fitness class to impress and get close to Jessie, which has stood the test of time unlike the film itself, a middling critical and commercial flop.
