My DJ Laughter Club Feb 2010


My first laughter session after certification as a Teacher is with a group of retirees in an open park in DJ, Petaling Jaya. There were 30 odd people practicing TaiChi every Tuesday morning. One of the practitioners invited me to run a trial session with the group. The response was wonderful and everybody immediately wanted to know more about Laughter Yoga after the 30 mins session. After 3 weekly sessions, I moved the Laughter sessions to Wednesday as the exercise ate into their TaiChi class. Now The DJ Laughter Club starts at 7.30am every Wednesday, with a committed core group of Laughter Members.

Laughter Yoga Training with Dr. Madan Kataria in Bangalore, India ( 10th-15thJan 2010)





The idea of spreading joy and fun with Laughter is so mind boggling simple, that I couldn't but need to find out everything about it. Yes, I have conducted sessions, I have used the laughter exercises to bring happy laughing faces to a number of people, but was unable to explain the health benefits of laughter. I know the framework but lack the content. Finally, January 10th, 2010, I flew to Bangalore to train with the founder of Laughter Yoga, Dr Madan Kataria.
There were 25 students, of various ages and differing cultures. From 11 countries, as far as North America, South America, Europe and Asia. Laughter breaks down all barriers amongst us. Some of us took sometime to open up, but when they did...whoa, nothing could contain their laughter. All of us experienced change....a first hand experience of the life changing effects of laughter . I believe no other type of training can produce the kind of bonding between individuals as laughter does. Laughter Truly is The Best Medicine

Laughter Sessions (Oct 2009)



December 2009, 3 BNI Chapters organised a Triparte Team Building Event in Janda Baik, Pahang. I was requested to conduct a Laughter Yoga session in the early morning so that members have a happy start to the day. There were 80+ members and although many slept late the night before, they all had a laughing good time at 6.30 am before breakfast.
