Laughter Yoga

Join  us for one of the most enjoyable and funniest exercise classes you will ever  experience! Laughter  yoga is an exercise system that uses rhythmic clapping, yogic breathing and  simulated laughter to bring about hearty laughter from deep within the body. You  do not need to have a particular sense of humour, nor do you need to feel like  laughing to enjoy a laughter yoga class. You will find that before long the  laughter flows naturally due to the group dynamics and the contagious nature of  laughter. Laughter  yoga teaches you to laugh freely from the body, rather than from the mind. In our busy world we often do not have the opportunity  to really stop and just laugh uproariously the way we did when we were  children. Laughter yoga creates a space for people to have fun and release pent  up stress and tension through a good deep belly laugh! Laughter is nature’s  antidote to stress – scientific research has shown that sustained laughter  reduces the levels of stress hormones in the body, leading to improved health and  wellbeing.

Sydney  Laughter is run by Kylie Willows, a Laughter Yoga Teacher internationally  certified by Dr. Madan Kataria, the founder of laughter yoga worldwide Kylies Webiste is http://www.sydneylaughter.com.au/
