The guiding questions were about the needs and demands exposed by patients with fibromyalgia and health professionals who work in primary health care. 12 individuals with fibromyalgia and 10 health professionals participated. The data were analyzed using the content analysis method proposed by Bardin, specifically the thematic content analysis.Results:Amigos de Fibro (Fibro Friends) should be conducted through lectures, dynamics and conversation circles. The educational program must include 15 meetings with weekly frequency. The meetings are: 1st to present the program and socialization activities. 2nd: Doctor presents the concepts of fibromyalgia. 3rd: Nurse informs about practices and environments that favor self-care. 4th: Social Worker shows the importance of support. 5th: Physiotherapist shows the main body practices and physical activity. 6th: Nutritionist presents an adequate and healthy diet. 7: Psychologist shows mental health practices. 8th: Pharmacist informs about medicines. 9, 11 and 13: participants perform activities at home. 10: Naturologist presents integrative and complementary practices. 12th: Occupational Therapist encourages methods to save energy. Day 14: Speech therapist helps in the quality of sleep. 15: closing activity.Conclusion:Amigos de Fibro is a program that presents interdisciplinary educational information for individuals with fibromyalgia, being considered a trend of care for the future. The next step is to conduct a clinical trial to verify the effect of this intervention and then implement it in the health service in Brazil. Fibro Friends was created from the conjunct action of patients and healthcare professionals, it can be an effective educational tool to be implemented at primary health attention centers, promoting the self-care, life quality and the promotion of health in individuals with Fibromyalgia.

La Educación física tiene una relación directa con cuatro de las nueve dimensiones que componen la Calidad de Vida (Eurostat, 2013): salud, educación, ocio y relaciones sociales y bienestar subjetivo. La Educación física aparece como un elemento fundamental para indicadores importantes en la medición de la calidad de vida, de presente y de futuro. Y es que la Educación física puede proporcionar una socialización adecuada en hábitos saludables, patrones de conducta relacionales y mejor autopercepción del bienestar a niños y jóvenes que no son “objetos” de estudio, sino sujetos activos y participantes, como nos plantea la nueva sociología de la infancia. La nueva sociología de la infancia es una subdisciplina de la sociología (de la educación física y del deporte) que estudia la realidad holística de la vida de los niños y jóvenes. En este sentido, también analiza elementos fundamentales de su calidad de vida presente, en relación con ellos mismos. La metodología mixta es una opción global y completa que se presenta como opción muy adecuada en diversos tipos de investigaciones que aúnan salud, educación y aspectos sociales y culturales. Las conclusiones muestran cómo desde la Educación Física y mediante la metodología mixta (encuestas, entrevistas, grupos de discusión, etnografía e investigación-acción), se puede analizar de manera más completa algunos de los indicadores de calidad de vida entre niños y jóvenes, en relación con ellos mismos y en planteamientos intergeneracionales, de presente (de los propios niños y jóvenes “aquí y ahora”) y de futuro (cuestiones estructurales de base socioeducativa).Abstract: Physical Education has a direct relationship with four of the nine dimensions that constitute Quality of life (Eurostat, 2013): health, education, leisure and social relationships, and personal welfare. The New Sociology of Childhood is a sub-discipline of Sociology (of Physical Education) that explores children’s and young people’s life in a holistically manner. Physical Education appears as a fundamental element for measuring quality of life. Thus, Physical Education can provide children and youth with positive socialization into healthy habits, relational patterns and better self-perception of welfare: they are not 'objects' of research, but they are active “subjects”. In this sense, this sub-discipline also analyses key elements of quality of life as well as it studies their relation with each other. Mixed methodology is a suitable methodology in different types of research about health, education and socio-cultural aspects. The outcomes show how Physical Education (through Mixed methodology: surveys, interviews, discussion groups, ethnography and action-research) can analyse children’s and youth’s indicators of quality of life, both in relation with each other and in intergenerational approaches, looking at the Present (children and young, "here and now") and at the Future (structural issues from socio-educational basis).
