Breast Cancer Survivors’ Fit Club

Designed by clinical exercise specialists, our fit club is here to help you to improve your quality of life by addressing common side effects after breast cancer treatment.

Breast Cancer Survivors' Fit Club

Breast Cancer Survivors' Fit Club is a complimentary 10-week overall fitness and wellness program specifically designed for breast cancer survivors. Fit Club focuses on improving balance, postural stability, cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength, body composition, and symptoms of fatigue. The program also provides a supportive community which enhances mental wellness leading to a healthy sense of self.

Survivors' Fit Club runs three times a year and takes place at the MUSC Wellness Center. The program is sponsored by Racquets for Recovery, an organization that benefits patients of MUSC Hollings Cancer Center’s Comprehensive Breast Care Program. Each 10-week session can support up to 12 survivors.
