Laughter “Yoga” is a deceptively simple yet very powerful form of exercise, combining laughter exercises with yogic breathing (quite different from traditional yoga with postures). Ultimately, Laughter “Yoga” is about the cultivation of joyfulness. It teaches you to make happiness a choice and not a consequence. Laughter is a universal language that transcends all barriers; age, gender, language,

hierarchy, physical abilities, race, religion, political beliefs. Anyone can laugh without relying on humour, jokes or comedy. Laughter has profound effects on our mental and physical state of being.

Here’s the lovely Sally Lawson sharing the magic of what laughter yoga has done for her. Thank you Sally, you’re The Best!

We have a two day course coming up on 12-13 September. Even if you’re not interested in leading it’s a wonderful weekend of laughter, joy and learning how to handle stress and stimulate the vagus nerve. Message us or Hannah directly.

It's World Laughter Day TOMORROW! And we're the first Laughter Club to celebrate it in the world, how good is that?!

It's amazing to think that Dr Kataria has been sharing this laughter-joy for 30 years and here in Christchurch we've been sharing it for 19 years! How good is that?!

We hope to laugh with some of you tomorrow and if you can't make it, be sure to share a laugh with those around you. Very good, very good YAY!!

Melanin Bee curves her spine like a stretching cat as she lets out a maniacal, forced laugh.

Hey lovely Laughers!!
For only the second time in 18 years we are having to increase our session price....

To help cover hall costs, we are changing our pricing to
pay what you can easefully afford, ideally $5 per session.

We're really aware that even the smallest increase can be a stretch for some in these times, so please just pay what makes it easy for you to still come laugh with us! 🤗
