Laughter Yoga Initiative Brings Joy to Yishun Seniors Through SWA & IMDA Partnership

By SWA Laughter Yoga Wellness Club, 11 Feb, 2025

On 11 February 2025, the Singapore Women’s Association’s (SWA) Laughter Yoga Wellness Club was invited by IMDA to bring smiles and laughter to over 50 seniors at AWWA Dementia Day Care Centre in Yishun. This heartwarming session was made possible through the generous support of IMDA, as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative.

Led by six dedicated leaders from SWA Laughter Yoga Wellness Club, alongside passionate volunteers from IMDA, the seniors engaged in a joyful session filled with clapping, breathing exercises, mind games, laughter exercises and dance. Their faces lit up as they experienced the many benefits of laughter—reducing stress, boosting the immune system, and fostering meaningful connections.

Beyond the laughter yoga, the seniors were also treated to a vibrant Lion Dance performance, a delightful lunch, and festive goodies, making it a truly memorable and uplifting day.

At SWA, we believe that laughter knows no barriers—it is a universal language that brings people together, uplifts spirits, and promotes well-being. We are grateful for this opportunity to share the gift of laughter with the seniors at AWWA Dementia Day Care Centre and extend our heartfelt appreciation to IMDA for their support in making this event possible.

💖 Laughter is the best medicine, and together, we spread joy! 💖
