Numerous initiatives have started in France, often associative. It is essential to evaluate in a rigorous manner, these therapies before making them part of the patient's care pathway. Yoga has shown a real benefit in terms of pain reduction in patients with BC treated with HT. These osteoarticular pains are the secondary effect on which a physical therapeutic care can have a real benefit. It thus appears innovative to complete this care with a therapeutic education program (TEP) in postural yoga which will enable patients to practice yoga postures at home by themselves. Yoga allows a large adaptation to pains expressed by each patient. It will favor the development of the feeling of control that they have in particular on their pain. participants will so improve the self-efficacy, the quality of life, and will reduce their fatigue and their pain. The patients involved have already lived major body transformations because of the disease and treatments. Yoga will help them put their lives together again, both physically and psychologically, and reclaim their body. Studies have shown the short-term effects of yoga practice on anxiety, stress, pain and quality of life. Few rare studies have suggested that patients could add yoga practice at home to the supervised sessions, but these studies lacked therapeutic patient education. To date, to our knowledge, no data on the effect of the realization of yoga postures at home on increase of the patients' self-competency feeling are available in France. Also, the long-term effects of such programs need to be assessed. The Montpellier Cancer Institute (ICM) has set-up 8 years ago yoga sessions for women with breast cancer, together with an association located in Montpellier. With this study, the investigators will assess the feasibility of an educational yoga program given by a trained physical therapist in patients with beast cancer treated with hormonotherapy.
