Join Joanie and Deva for a playful, energizing experience that blends Laughter Yoga, Nia, Yoga, and Yoga Nidra to support health, happiness, and connection.
We’ll begin with laughter, breath, and gentle movement to warm the body and open the heart, then move into a joyful, heart-pumping Nia practice to awaken body, mind, emotions, and spirit. We’ll close with grounding yoga and a nourishing 30-minute Yoga Nidra with sound healing so you leave feeling light, steady, and renewed.
What is Laughter Yoga? A unique practice combining intentional laughter and yogic breathing, based on the idea that we can access laughter anytime, no humor required.
What is Nia? A barefoot movement practice blending elements of dance, martial arts, and healing arts into one expressive, feel-good experience.
What to Expect:
Breath-led movement to energize and release tension
A balance of guided structure and freeform play
Sensation-based cueing so you can move in ways that feel good for your body
A full-body nervous system reset to uplift mood and restore ease
All bodies and levels welcome. No dance or martial arts background needed.
Just come as you are, wear comfy clothes, and bring water.
Another misconception is that yoga is just about stretching, but it's like saying a car is just about the wheels. Yoga is a holistic practice that includes breathwork, meditation, and mindfulness, all of which can have profound effects on the mind and body.
Yoga is like a tightrope walker for your body. It can help improve your balance by strengthening your core and leg muscles, and improving your proprioception (your body's awareness of its position in space). Plus, it's a lot more fun than walking a tightrope all day.
Absolutely! Yoga is like a prenatal superhero. It can help improve your strength, flexibility, and endurance, all of which can come in handy during labor. Plus, the focus on breath control can help you stay calm and focused during contractions.
Yoga helps with heart health like a personal trainer, providing a gentle and effective workout to keep your heart strong and healthy. It can help lower blood pressure, improve circulation, and reduce the risk of heart disease. Plus, it's a lot more enjoyable than sweating it out on a treadmill.
Yoga helps with focus and concentration like a laser beam, helping you hone in on the task at hand. It can help improve mental clarity, reduce distractions, and increase productivity. Plus, it's a lot more enjoyable than staring at a computer screen all day.
