Brief Summary:
This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study with a pre-test-post-test design to determine the effect of yoga practice accompanied by a specialist yoga instructor on fatigue quality of life and symptom control in children diagnosed with cancer between the ages of 8-12The main questions it aims to answer are
1 Does yoga practice applied to children diagnosed with cancer reduce fatigue in children
2 Does yoga practice applied to children diagnosed with cancer affect their quality of life
3 Does yoga practice applied to children diagnosed with cancer affect the symptoms experienced by children
Before and after yoga practice children diagnosed with cancer will answer survey and scale questions about fatigue quality of life and symptoms
