Would you like to become a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader with Laughter Yoga International?

Become a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader (CLYL)! Whether you plan to start your own Laughter Yoga Club, offer sessions in businesses and health centres, or share more laughter with friends and family, this weekend will immerse you in the joy of laughter. Graduates receive a Certificate from Dr. Madan Kataria’s Laughter Yoga International. The training is presented by the Centre for Mindfulness Canada, North Vancouver.

At this two-day Online Training you will discover:

Laughter’s physical, emotional and social benefits.
How to simulate and stimulate laughter.
Stress-relieving techniques that deepen creativity and build resilience.
The philosophy and history of Laughter Yoga and fundamentals of leading a laughter session.
How to lead your own community Laughter Club or Laughter sessions (healthy-workplace, healthcare, seniors etc.).
Laughter yoga exercises that will bring more happiness and connection in your personal/professional life.
How to connect people with optimism, health and healing through a wonderfully playful, scientifically-proven form of exercise.

Before the training begins, you need to have attended at least two Laughter Yoga sessions. If you have not attended a Laughter Yoga session, you can join me in the monthly Free Laughter Yoga session. Otherwise, you can take a class in any other laughter yoga club in the city (here is great link to listings). And, if you still can’t attend two classes locally before the weekend training, you can try this phone laughter yoga club !

This training is presented by Centre for Mindfulness Canada. Facilitator for the weekend training is Dr. Kasim Al-Mashat, with guest presenter (Seia Roots) on Sunday afternoon.

Dr. Kasim Al-Mashat’s (PhD, Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher) counselling background and interest in mental, physical and emotional wellness led him to Laughter Yoga in 2007. He trained with Dr. Madan Kataria, the founder of Laughter Yoga, and became a Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher. Kasim has been running the Laughter Yoga certification training since 2011. His work in Laughter Yoga has caught the attention of media including North Shore News, Maclean’s magazine, Simon Fraser University News, Global BC Television, Vancouver Courier, and TELUS Optic TV. Kasim is also a certified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Teacher through the University of Massachusetts Medical School and Authorized MBSR Teacher Trainer through the Center for Mindfulness at Brown University.

Kasim, you were fantastic, thank you! Your timing and pacing was perfect! Your energy remained elevated and you held my interest! I stayed interested the entire 2 days! I felt present throughout the training, and had so much fun learning, playing, imagining, pretending, laughing, and being part of the group! I learned about myself and am excited to create new neural pathways through regular laughter and childlike play! Thank you, Kasim!

Laughter Yoga was created in the mid-1990s by a Physician from India, Dr. Madan Katria with the support of his wife Madhuri Katria – a yoga teacher. It is a unique exercise routine which combines unconditional laughter with yogic breathing (pranayama), and playful exercises and activities. Anyone can laugh without relying on humor, jokes or comedy.
