Dear Friend of Fusion...
Yippee... summer's finally here ~ although you'd never know it with the whacky weather we're having! Summer brings fun and sun (eventually!) as well as the announcement of our "Wear in the World?" Photo Contest. Take Fusion on vacation with you and perhaps you can win a fabulous prize! (Details below.)
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! This weekend was to be our Down-Dog-A-Thon, which has been postponed until August. Unbeknownst to us, we bumped up against the SPCA's wonderful Doggie Dash, so our event has "gone to the dogs!" for the time being. Nonetheless, we look forward to our special event benefiting Scooter's Pals rescue group toward the end of summer.
THIS WEEKEND ... Join Christie tomorrow for Meditation Instruction & Support (Saturday at 10:15 am). Plus we have our monthly "Intro To Yoga" workshop on Sunday at 10:00 am as well (great for beginners or as a refresher).
... AND next weekend, we're hosting yoga master Doug Swenson! We're THRILLED and privileged to have Doug join us. We hope that you'll join us too on Sunday, June 12 (TWO sessions to choose from ~ or do both!). Space is filling up quickly though... hurry and reserve your spot TODAY. Reservations can be made at the front desk or on-line. (Note that our 9:00 Fusion Flow class is cancelled on June 12 due to this special event.)
The Spring/Summer logo wear is moving fast.... get yours before they're gone! Tanks and cute v-neck tees in white, black, red, and gray. We've still got a few book bags as sports bags left too... a bargain at $4 and $5 dollars.
Our next Teacher Training session is scheduled to begin again in September. Could this be the right time for you...? Find out more at our Informational Tea to be held in August.
We've also got two new classes to tell you about too. Details are included in this issue for all the above and more! Read on...
Big love,

Fall Teacher Training Starts Soon! | |
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... Get Application... Check Training Dates >>
What to know more...? Join us for a casual Informational Tea on August 1 to learn more about our program (see website for more).

"WEAR IN THE WORLD..?" Contest | |
"Wear In The World?" is our travel photo contest that anyone can be a part of. All it takes is a piece of Fusion logowear, a camera, and a sense of adventure! Get creative... with every photo you take, you'll have a chance to win free classes or more logowear!
So, where are you going this summer...? Are you taking a hiking trip or going camping... taking the kids to Disney... going to the lake, the mountains, the wine country, a sporting event, to a ranch, exploring California, or even traveling to some exotic land...? When you pack your camera, don't forget to pack your Fusion logowear (tee, hoodie, tank, book or sports bag). Then while out-and-about, strike a pose with your Fusion logowear, snap a photo, and forward it to us along with a description of where you're at. Creativity will score extra points (try Tree pose if you're game!), but be sure that the logo is visible in your photo. Photos will be posted on our website for everyone to see! Samples are below. (For each item sold, we'll be donating $1 to the SPCA.)

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).
