Hear Alicia's philosophy on Laughter Yoga
Alicia Dattner is a certified Laughter Yoga leader, trained by a student of Dr. Madan Kataria. What is Laughter Yoga? It's not about doing a bunch of asanas and trying to laugh and hold a pose at the same time. ¬ŻLaughter Yoga is a simply a practice of laughing for the purpose of union with the childlike nature. There is a quality of returning to "beginner's mind". We do silly, playful exercises that encourage laughter and mirth, with no jokes, to return to a simple state of joy!. The class begins and ends with yogic breathing, meditation, and positive intention.Read about the benefits of laughter in Alicia's blog!
"I just wanted to drop you a note telling you how grateful I
am for the Laughter Yoga that you lead. It's made a huge difference in my life already, and it's something I look forward to every week. No matter what is going on in the rest of my life I know I can look forward to just laughing in the park with all of you. It's a big deal to me. Thanks so much for holding the space and making it happen." -Brad Neuberg, Laughter Yoga Participant
