What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Yoga Training Program (exercises)Other
Training: Before the yoga program, the patients will be informed about the bronchiectasis disease and its symptoms, as well as all the parameters used in the evaluation, tests and the content of the yoga session. The patients will start with breathing exercises, then relaxation exercises, warm-up exercises, asanas (posture exercises) and finally the yoga training program will be completed with deep relaxation technique.

|---|---|---|
| Yoga Training Group | Experimental | Training: Before the yoga program, the patients will be informed about the bronchiectasis disease and its symptoms, as well as all the parameters used in the evaluation, tests and the content of the yoga session.
During the program, the perceived fatigue intensity of the patients will be questioned with the Modified Borg Scale.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Patient Follow-up Form
The demographic characteristics, physical characteristics such as age, height and body weight of the individuals included in the study and their education status will be recorded.
Measured: Baseline
Secondary outcomes (1)
Dyspnea Assessment
Dyspnea will be assessed by the modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) dyspnea scale. Individuals will be asked to choose the statement that best describes their dyspnea level.
Scoring in MMRC varies between 0-4 points. "0 points" means that there is no dyspnea; "4 points" indicates a perception of dyspnea during basic daily life activities such as dressing.
Measured: Before and after treatment (8 week)
