Jon Graznak is a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader through Bharata Wingham in Yogaville and in direct affiliation with Dr. Madan Kataria, present-day Founder of Laughter (Haysa) Yoga. Jon came to laughter yoga after seeing Leigh present at a professional conference he was attending for his “day job” in Substance Abuse Recovery Programming. Recognizing Haysa as a natural fit in his developing efforts to bring alternative healing to Recovery settings, he began to participate in Charlottesville Laughter Club events, and began leading elsewhere.
Before beginning his path as a healer, Jon enjoyed a diverse background in business and public service working as an owner and manager in both retail and manufacturing businesses, Park Ranger, River Guide, Actor, Stage Magician, Naturalist and general Mad Scientist. He is a board certified Hypnotherapist, certified in Acu-Detox Acupuncture and recently completed a 630 hour course of study at Virginia School of massage. Jon revels in the wonder and curiosity of life, and owns a growing collection of flying monkeys.
