Laughter Yoga
Duration & PRICES Varies
Laughter Yoga is a simple yet powerful form of exercise. It combines yoga-based deep breathing, gentle stretching, simulated laughter exercises and playful games and activities. Using no jokes or comedy, a class involves movement and breathing exercises designed to stimulate laughter and cultivate an inner spirit of joy.
Laughter Yoga was created by Dr. Madan Kataria, a family physician in India who, after researching the profound physiological and psychological benefits of laughter, wanted to find an alternative way of treating his patients; many of whom were suffering from illness related to stress. What started with five people in a Mumbai park in 1995 now has thousands of people practicing all over the world.
