Kalpana Doshi, Laughter Yoga Leader

---

I am a certified Laughter Yoga leader based in London, with more than nine years of experience across the UK and internationally. I received a qualification in 2012 from the Dr Kataria School of Laughter Yoga and have since worked with corporate clients, community centres, old people’s homes, voluntary organisations, private individuals, charities, health and wellbeing retreats and exclusive social events.

Examples of highlight events in which I have led Laughter Yoga sessions include Diwali in Trafalgar Square (2019), Zee London Mela (2019), Corona Energy (2019), Haberdasher Aske’s Girls School (2020), Karuna Manor Care Home (2019) and Mantra Therapy/ Urban Spirituality’s wellbeing retreat in Tuscany (2018).
I am purpose driven and use Laughter Yoga as a tool to help people improve their mental health and wellbeing, as well as companies to reduce workplace stress, encourage team bonding and create a happy and energetic workforce.

As well as Laughter Yoga, my sessions also include guided meditation and breathing exercises. I was a voluntary teacher at a Saturday spiritual school for seven years and have a certificate in Education in Human Values.

In these particularly difficult times, I have been hosting sessions on Zoom for 100+ participants of all ages, to keep morale high, lift spirits and bring communities together. This is because I truly believe that the more you laugh, the more you are able to laugh at whatever life throws at you!
