Our CEO

Merv Neal is the Chief (or Chortling) Executive Officer of Laughter Yoga Australia whose passion for the benefits of Laughter Yoga is only just matched by his desire to make sure that nobody goes down the same road that he did in not looking after his health. Watch this short documentary The Laughing Man to understand why.

Laughter Yoga Australia’s qualified and experienced laughter wellbeing facilitators believe healthy people equals healthy organisations. We believe it’s time to get serious about personal health and workplace wellbeing. We enjoy working with organisations that genuinely rate staff wellbeing as a priority and an obligation, not just a business requirement.

If that’s your way of thinking too, let’s talk — and then let’s laugh together.
