Dear Friend of Fusion...

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!
We hope this newsletter finds you in the holiday spirit and surrounded by family, friends, and loved ones.
As a reminder, if you need a last minute gift for a friend or loved one, we've got Gift Certificates (buy on-line and print at home)... so convenient! Yoga is a gift that keeps on giving. (Think about what it means to you ;o)
Fusion's winter logowear should be arriving next week! If you haven't ordered your long-sleeve tee ($15) or hoodie ($25), there's an order sheet at the front desk. Reserve yours today... quantites are limited!
We're are also thrilled to have an on-site masseuse and hope that you'll give Yemayah a try. (Lori got a massage last week and it was FANTASTIC!) During the month of December, Yemayah's got a special offer for you (see coupon below) Go on.... Treat yourself! You deserve it!
So, although nothing is set in stone quite yet, we're hoping to bring you a backbend intensive... a yin workshop... some early morning classes... changes to the evening schedule...a buy/trade/show... a raw food cooking class... thai chi classes.... and more! .... to be kept up-to-date on happenings at Fusion, for helpful information and interesting articles and such.
There's lots happening after the first of the year. We're offering a special 4-Week Series Heated Fusion Flow "Boot Camp" on Friday mornings in January for those of you who want to burn off a few holiday calories in a warmer environment during the winter chill!
Also, there will be an Teacher Training Informational Tea with Lori Moore on Sunday January 2, 2011 for those who might be curious about our program. (Our Teacher Training Program will begin February 4.) More info is provided on our website and below.

Fusion's Teacher Training Program
Starts February 4th !
Our program is designed to deepen your understanding and practice of yoga, and may also be taken by those who are not necessarily intending to become yoga instructors. Many students pursue teacher training not because they want to teach, but because they love yoga and want to learn more. Teacher Training is a wonderful way to deepen your practice and take it to a new level. This course will build on whatever form of yoga you have been training or practiced in. Read More...

Meditation Instruction & Support | |
Monthly Sessions with Christie Vallance
Next: Saturday, January 8 (9:00-10:30 am)
This informative class is now held once at month (usually the first Saturday of each month). Christie will explain the different elements of meditation. You'll learn what meditation is, how to meditate, and why meditation helps. You'll find that by focusing on the present moment, the mind naturally settles down resulting in a calm, peaceful state, allowing you to connect with your own inner stillness. Since it is now a part of our on-going schedule, feel free to use your Class Pass (or drop-in at $16). Everyone is welcome, including those that have an existing meditation practice.

| Nada Brahma Music Ensemble Performance | |
Saturday, February 12 8:00-10:00 pm

Come join the Indian Classical Fusion group: The Nada Brahma Music Ensemble for an evening of Raga and Tala. Hear the mystical sounds of this ancient music from India. All of their music is 100% improvised and is manifested on a unique 25-string raga guitar with the traditional percussion of North India, the tabla. Witness their skill in rhythmic complexity (Tala) expressed in cycles of 4 ¾, 9 ¼, and 5 ½. The universal tranquility that emanates from the Raga (melody forms) will transport you to another world! "The Nada Brahma Music Ensemble creates a sense of blissful, almost meditative consciousness in its audiences." -- Christian Kiefer, Sacramento News & Review. Read more about them >> Sample their music >>
$12 in advance ($15 at door) Reservations >>

Our needs can be different each time we step onto our mats. At FUSION, we believe that it's important to consider how we're showing up on any given day and decide what's best for us... honoring the first tenant of yoga, which is "ahimsa," (cause no-harm to oneself or others).
