FAR northern suburbs cancer patients and their families can benefit from free WA Cancer Council classes starting at the end of January.

The 12-week Life Now program will offer yoga, meditation and exercise sessions in various suburbs including Joondalup and Wanneroo.

Co-ordinator Lani Valentine said the classes, funded through such events as Relay for Life, could help people cope better.

Research showed the benefits of exercise before, during and after cancer treatment.
