Among the many benefits of working for Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA) is access to the Lab’s excellent fitness facilities, clubs, and programs through the Brookhaven Employees' Recreation Association (BERA).

BERA supports an outstanding slate of clubs and affordable classes, including swim lessons for employees and their children, exercise classes like Pilates or Zumba, a weight training and cardio facility, and team leagues such as badminton, basketball, soccer, softball, and volleyball. 

Every month, through every season, there’s a healthy activity here.

The weight-training and cardio facility is one of the best fitness deals anywhere. All members can attend orientation and training sessions twice monthly as often as they’d like. Likewise, the pool and its programs can’t be beat. We offer morning hours, plenty of Aqua-fitness classes, lap swimming, and we even offer lifeguard training.
