On Saturday, Nov. 11, local firefighters from Los Angeles Fire Department Stations 23 and 69 put on their comfy pants and headed to Goorus Yoga Studio to participate in a Veteran’s Day “yogathon” fundraising drive.
Led by guest instructor Julie Hale, the first responders bent and twisted their way toward raising money for veterans through the Give Back Yoga Foundation.
Hale, a Westside psychologist and counselor, told the Palisadian-Post that the cause remains very near and dear to her heart as she has seen firsthand how yoga can help provide relief to PTSD and trauma survivors.
