Kensington Fitness Studio Expands Classes to Include Fitness for the Whole Family

The Fuse Fitness owners, Pascha Brown and Kristin Rios, know that fitness is important throughout life, so they are adding new classes to support younger and older people to take their next step in personal fitness.

Starting in October, The Fuse Fitness will be offering Kung Fu classes for children aged 3 to 5 and 6 to 8 years old.  Certified Kung Fu Instructor, Deshaun Williams, who will be teaching the classes says, ”The martial arts are a life long journey that helps children to build focus, discipline, strength and self-confidence.”

This winter, to better meet the needs of retired people, The Fuse Fitness will be offering a new type of class that is proving to be very popular with Southern California baby boomers and beyond. 

The new senior fitness program is structured as small-group personal training. Classes consist of only three to four people and are conducted by a certified personal trainer. It differs from group classes with the goal being to offer semi-personal training that is more cost effective than one-on-one personal training.  The program gives people structure and support without the social and sometimes competitive culture of large group classes.  

From the initial personal assessment to the two-to-three classes a week, the new program focuses on improving functional movements that help mature adults to keep moving with increased strength and energy. 

One member, Nancy, knows the benefits of this training first hand, “The Fuse Fitness is such an important factor in improving my well-being. The instructors are great at adapting exercises to my strengths and weaknesses.  To them, my age and level of fitness are only opportunities.  I am challenged to be the very best I can be.”

For more information about how The Fuse Fitness can help with your family’s fitness goals, call 510-558-8638 or email info@thefusefitnessstudio.com.

Congratulations, Carla. The article failed to mention what a great neighbor you are.

@Dover: The parent birds didn't look like doves. They were the commonly seen dull-yellowish birds.Read More Smaller than a pigeon but larger than a sparrow. Robins? I can't tell for sure. We checked the abandoned nest. To my eyes, it was well built, and stably setup between grape branches. It didn't capsize. The dead baby birds were found at least 5 feet away from the ground right beneath the nest. Something must have got them out of the nest and killed them. We didn't look at the corpses in detail to decide the cause of death though.

@Ross: I was wondering that too. It could be the squirrels, which were very active in my backyardRead More and the neighborhood. They still are very active.
Dover May 20, 2013 at 09:31 am
I agree with Ross. A predator would have eaten those yummy, tender, tasty baby birds. It soundsRead More more like a case of incompetent nest construction to me. Were they doves? Doves are well-known for their inability to build proper nests but there are others who struggle too. Instinct and ability do not always travel hand-in-hand. Not much you can do about that, unfortunately. Some creatures are incompetent. Some people are incompetent. That's life.
Debris collection now at 10 days
Ralph Whize May 20, 2013 at 10:12 pm
Got thru to the City Inspector (twice) and he finally called the contractor, who (at the end of dayRead More 12 of trash build up) moved the debris pile away. Albany Planning Commission meeting is 2nd and 4th Wednesdays at 7:30 pm and I'm hoping local homeowners will take time to address this and other CV issues.
Dover May 20, 2013 at 09:40 am
Hey! Cool! Now I know where to dump my unwanted items! ;-) Seriously though, "the city"Read More is not helpless, "the city" is lazy and sometimes you have to kick them in the ass to get them moving. What have you tries thus far? I assume you have communicated with the CV owner or contractor. What else have you done?
Ann Farmer May 19, 2013 at 06:22 pm
This is not only an eyesore. This is a health hazard. The boards you see in the photo have nailsRead More sticking out. This area has become the trash heap for anyone walking by wanting to dispose of garbage. With bins overflowing, trash is blown down the street into residents' yards.

Another example of more balanced reporting from Berkeleyside article:Read More http://www.berkeleyside.com/2013/05/17/uc-berkeley-seeks-funds-to-cut-down-22000-non-native-trees/. Some of the comments are useful especially about glyphosphate. The author of the article even used his own name.

The source cited in this announcement states up to 1,400 gallons of herbicide possibly includingRead More Roundup might be used rather than 14,000 gallons of Roundup will be used. Not that I am in favor of dosing the environment with petrochemicals, but I do like to make decisions based on facts. I also have to wonder about the accuracy of the source given that it is an opinion piece rather than an article.

And now for the more balanced reporting: "But U.C. Berkeley wants to remove most of its 22,000Read More eucalyptus and acacia trees, then restore native species like they did in the Claremont Canyon." From this article: http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/east_bay&id=9107025
