Laughter Yoga in Bali, Indonesia
16-Mar-08I was invited to Bali, Indonesia to hold Laughter Yoga workshops during the Bali Spirit Festival between 12th -15th of March, 2008. In my first laughter workshop, I met a young man Kadek who started the first laughter club in Bali six months ago. He had read about Laughter Yoga on the net and was so taken up by the concept that he immediately started the club without any formal training. He was very keen to meet me and was glad that he would do so at the festival. He straight away signed up for my workshop.
Normally, laughter clubs in the West meet once a week. It is only in India that people laugh together daily, but I was pleasantly surprised to find about 70 – 100 people attending Kadek’s club everyday. The session was dynamic, full of joy and enthusiasm. The members exercised vigorously like aerobics and by the end of the session, they felt extremely fresh and energetic.
Laughter Yoga was well received at the festival and all the workshops were well attended. It generated a lot of media awareness and interest.
