TESTIMONIALS

“I enjoyed it because it makes me happy!” Jane, Webster, NY

“It makes you fee like you are improving while enjoying at the same time.” Ruth, Webster, NY

“When I first saw Laughter Yoga while watching a documentary, I thought 'Oh my GOSH! I HAVE to do that! That looks amazing!' All these people were laughing together and I could feel their energy through the screen. I cried with joy.
I then was lucky enough to discover that there was a class that was held each week very close to my house with Dale and Joellen. I was able to inspire my family to go to classes and we all received huge benefits from it. Laughter Yoga truly helps one to laugh more at difficult things, to release negative things from your body and spirit and to simply be more relaxed and happy about life.
I highly recommend it to everyone of every age.” Christine, Greece, NY

What is Laughter Yoga ?

Laughter Yoga is a revolutionary idea – simple and profound. An exercise routine, it is sweeping the world and is a complete wellbeing workout.

The founder, Dr. Madan Kataria, a Physician from Mumbai, India, launched the first Laughter Club at a Park on March 13, 1995, with merely a handful of persons. Today, it has become a worldwide phenomenon with more than 6000 Social Laughter Clubs in about 60 countries.

Laughter Yoga combines Unconditional Laughter with Yogic Breathing (Pranayama). Anyone can Laugh for No Reason, without relying on humor, jokes or comedy. Laughter is simulated as a body exercise in a group; with eye contact and childlike playfulness, it soon turns into real and contagious laughter. The concept of Laughter Yoga is based on a scientific fact that the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter. One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits.
