This impairments impact activity of daily living, and social reintegration. That why the investigators need to explore options for long-term sustainable interventions that which takes into account the patient as a whole. In particular, regular physical activity is recommended, but it must be adaptable to the patient's impairments. Teaching yoga may be an interesting option. Indeed, yoga is a mind-body practice which become increasingly widespread in the world. Recent studies highlight positive effect of yoga for this population. However, the levels of evidence are limited, and new studies are needed.

Primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of a therapeutic yoga program, compared to a conventional physical activity program, to improve balance of patients with chronic stroke sequelae.

Secondary objectives are to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the therapeutic yoga program in improving muscle strength and functional mobility, as well as its superiority in improving anxiety, depression, social reintegration and adherence to treatment.
