      FREE Core & More Classes: Living with Cancer Series at UCSF

      Exercise training can improve physical functioning in cancer patients. Exercise can reduce feelings of fatigue, depression, and nausea; improve mental well-being and quality of life; and enhance ability to perform daily tasks.
      Not only does exercise produce positive changes in energy levels, muscular strength, and joint flexibility, exercise can also produce positive changes in an individual's sense of confidence, mood, and quality of life.
      This class includes Pilates based mat exercises to work on core strength and stability. We also use rollers, bands, balloons and body weight as tools to enhance range of motion, flexibility, balance and muscular strength. Our goal is to increase your ability to attend to activities of daily living, and have fun doing it!
      Registration is required for this class. Please call 415.722.5314.

      The following classes are offered free of charge to anyone living with cancer (not limited to UCSF patients), as well as their caregivers. They are co-sponsored by the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine and the UCSF Ida & Joseph Friend Cancer Resource Center.
      All classes are held at the UCSF Osher Center for Integrative Medicine 1545 Divisadero St., 5th Floor. To register for any of these classes, please call the Cancer Resource Center at 415-885-3693 or visit http://www.osher.ucsf.edu/classes-and-lectures/living-with-cancer/
