Group Classes & Sessions
In addition to our other supportive services, Carolina Breast Friends offers 25 - 30 group classes and sessions each month for anyone living with breast cancer, regardless of where they are in their journey. All of these classes are free to anyone who is experiencing or has experienced breast cancer.
Group Sessions fall into the following areas:
The Wellness Program
The sessions in our Wellness Program address the mind-body needs of breast cancer Survivors & Thrivers regardless of where they are in their journey. Sessions include recurring fitness, yoga, and mindfulness classes. Sessions are geared specifically for breast cancer Survivors and many are led by Survivors, as well. We also offer Personalized Sessions through our Wellness Program such as oncology massage and breast lymphatics, to name just two.

The Support Program
We were founded on the premise that the support of those on a common journey can play a pivotal role in the recovery process. The group classes and events in our Support Program provide a chance to connect, share, empower, and laugh with a safe and supportive circle of people who understand your experience. Survivors' Night, the 2nd Tuesday of each month, is an example of a group session in our Support Program. Our Support Program also offers One-on-One Mentoring services.
