The aim of the Laughter Yoga Leader Training is to teach individuals who wish to implement laughter yoga with various groups—such as students, employees, and older adults—how to plan and conduct a structured laughter yoga program.
Brief Information About Laughter Yoga: Laughter Yoga was developed in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria, an Indian medical doctor, together with his wife Madhuri Kataria, a yoga instructor, by combining laughter exercises with breathing techniques. Laughter Yoga is a complementary therapy technique that integrates unconditional laughter with specific breathing exercises. It has positive physiological, psychological, and social effects on health and is used across various disciplines in the healthcare field for different purposes.
