Staff from the Family Service Association (FSA) have been participating in a weekly yoga group held on the grounds of the First Congregational Church on Rock Street since it was arranged through Greater Fall River Re-Creation. Certified yoga instructor Donna Brown leads the group through 45 minutes of stretches, postures and positions designed to increase flexibility, muscle strength and inner contemplation. The group walks to the church location just a few blocks away from the FSA headquarters on Rock Street. "I really look forward to it," stated Family Service Association Wellness Coordinator who helped to set up the group. "By the time you're done, you feel so much better, and that feeling lasts for days," she added. Other groups who would like to make similar arrangements can contact Re-Creation Program Director Jamison Souza to talk about options. Click here for a one-minute video of the group. For more information about the FSA worksite wellness program, contact Susan Potvin, R.N. at 508-324-2405.
