Exercise Your Laughter Muscles for Health & Happiness (FREE)

Join us for Laughter Yoga at Lake Murray the first, second and third Friday mornings! We have moved to a more convenient location at Lake Murray. Take Lake Murray Blvd and turn onto Kiowa, (Starbucks is on the corner) follow the road past the Trail Head at the gate to the parking lot and turn left at the first parking row. Our group meets in the area to the left, there is an asphalt walk way. We are no longer near the boat ramp! Please call to confirm the class is meeting: Nancy Clement (619-933-1716) or Evelyn Eads (619-742-8638). Hope to see you there!

NOTE: This is not just a Meetup group; many people participate without going through Meetup so don't be deterred if the RSVP only shows a few attending! :)

WE'RE BACK! This is a live in-person gathering for yoga.
We meet every Saturday 9:30 A.M. Location is just south of 6th Avenue Playground in Balboa Park, cross street is Spruce. If you can't make it, don't worry because we will be there every week, same time same place.

It is not necessary to RSVP on meetup but I recommend it so that I am able to send you the latest updates (in case we need to change time/location last minute). It also helps us to know who to expect.

OUR GROUP HAS BEEN MEETING FOR OVER 15 YEARS! It's a great way to start the day and the weekend. We do some simple stretching, playful laughter exercises and end with a deep relaxation.

MORE PEOPLE WILL ATTEND THAN RSVP ON MEETUP because Meetup is not the only way we promote the group.

WHAT WILL WE DO? We practice "Laughter Yoga." We start with gentle stretching, then engage in simple playful exercises that elicit genuine laughter without the need for jokes or comedy. We do a lot of breathing in between exercises which brings more oxygen to our body and brains. We end with a "laughter free-for-all" where everyone is invited to laugh, make whatever noises they want, or just lie quietly. Each group ends with a period of relaxation. It is a practice called "Laughter Yoga."

WHY IS IT CALLED "YOGA"? Laughter Yoga is NOT hatha (physical) yoga. Laughter Yoga was started in India in 1995 by a medical doctor and his wife who is a hatha yoga teacher. "Yoga" is a generic term that refers to anything we do that brings our mind, body and heart/soul into balance and laughter certainly does that! Also, Laughter Yoga incorporates the breathing and relaxation of hatha yoga and practicing it makes us more flexible in our lives, teaching us new ways to react to normally stress-producing events. For more information about Laughter Yoga, visit www.LaughterYoga.org.

NO YOGA MAT OR SPECIAL CLOTHING REQUIRED.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME. People of ALL ages and abilities laugh with us. The group is done standing but you can bring a beach chair or folding chair if you prefer to sit during all or any part of the group.

WE STILL MEET IF IT RAINS. If it rains, we meet under the overhang by the Bridge Club building. It's just a little further south of our normal spot.

Thanks for your interest. This class, unfortunately, is postponed until further notice.
But, keep laughing. Look for Laugh Exercises on YouTube.
