Connect with a natural sense of joy, pleasure and ease in your body, heart and mind through a unique fusion of gentle asana, meditation and Laughter Yoga. We’ll take a break from the seriousness of city life and current events while enjoying an evening full of playfulness and lightness, restoring our innate ability to be happy, peaceful and connected.
Laughter taps our inner well of joy and connects us with others like nothing else. Most of us love to laugh, but many of us don’t do it enough or are dependent on funny movies or other forms of comedy to stimulate laughter. Laughter Yoga liberates us from this dependency and offers the freedom to laugh anywhere at anytime, gaining numerous mental, emotional and physiological benefits, almost instantly. Simple and fun Laughter Yoga exercises surface our innate child-like playfulness and help us access unconditional laughter, while offering the opportunity to form stronger social bonds, feeling a deeper heart connection to all beings.
Some of the scientifically proven benefits of Laughter Yoga include:
Stronger immunity
More oxygen to the blood and brain
Abdominal toning
Release of muscular tension
Decrease in physical and emotional pain (from injury, illness or childbirth)
Increase in the “feel good” hormones: endorphins, dopamine, and oxytocin as well as the neurotransmitter serotonin
No yoga experience is necessary, just the willingness to breathe, LAUGH and have fun! Everyone can benefit from this accessible practice.

From her very first experience with Laughter Yoga, Britt Fohrman knew she needed to bring it into her yoga classes, photography sessions and work with pregnant and birthing women. Since 1997, Britt has been offering yoga instruction with her unique blend of Iyengar and Restorative Yoga, breath guided movement, mindfulness meditation and slow deep breathing. When she’s not teaching, attending births or taking photographs, Britt enjoys laughing on the dance floor, out in the ocean and with her dog. You can find out more about Britt at www.brittfohrman.com
$25 in advance, $30 at the door.
Doors open at 7. Feel free to stay for tea in the lounge until 10.
