Ha Ha Yoga
about the program
Ha Ha Yoga, our own light take on this ancient mind-body practice, combines a world-class yoga teacher with a master joker, so your team can limber up and laugh away at the same time! That’s right, we’re going to do some gentle, mindful, restorative yoga together, while our comedian takes the liberty to playfully make fun of your exertions in good spirit. Life is too short to take too seriously and what better marriage of the physical and the mental is there?!
