YOGA improves quality of life - EU-IPFF offers online YOGA classes during IPF awareness week

Please feel free to join our YOGA classes from 18th - 25th September.

As part of the #BreathingLife campaign during #PFMonth and our strong focus on quality of life, EU-IPFF offers daily online yoga sessions for everyone during IPF awareness week 2021

Join us for 6 sessions of chair yoga and 2 sessions of eye yoga (a nice way of finding relaxation) by Samantha Nier.

You may know Samantha from the EU-IPFF Secretariat. Since few years, during her free time, she is also guiding yoga classes and especially chair yoga classes.

Samantha developed those classes based on her personal experience as a patient as well as from her work with (cancer) patients and their caregivers.

These classes are for everyone who want to feel his/her body moving and reconnect to it.

If you have never done yoga and want to discover it, if you are a patient (cancer, chronic disease or any other condition, under treatment or not), if you are a bit older, if you are not a sporty person, if you don’t feel like going into a studio or a fitness, etc. Whatever the reason is, yoga offers a lot of benefits!
