I got a full night of great sleep afterwards
Sunny's sessions are well thought out, lots of fun and leave me feeling very warm and tingly. And as someone who has struggled to sleep for may years, I was delighted to realise that I got a full night of great sleep afterwards. Highly recommended! Thank you, Serious Laughter, this stuff really works! Elk Burland November 2025
My team LOVED the Laughter Yoga session
Today was awesome, you rock! My team LOVED the session, and we were laughing for most of the day after you left with a noticeable reduction in stress levels. What a way to brighten up ‘Blue Monday’. I’ve already emailed my team about getting you out to do the same session with our clients at their next away days and conferences, so watch this space. Thank you so much. And thank you for the Smiley Lemon. Stewart Hilton, ZEAL Creative January 2020

Dr. Waikin (Miyake, Gifu) - Found My Mission Through Laughter Yoga
My name is Miyake and I live in the countryside of Gifu. My nickname is "Dr. Waikin." Although I'm in my late twenties, my life has begun to shine again since I discovered laughter yoga. It all started with an article about laughter yoga I saw in the local newspaper. Interested, I immediately contacted him, and Mr. Yoshimi from "Kokohito no Kai" came to my home and arranged for me to receive direct instruction. At that moment, I felt that this was truly amazing. In fact, a year prior, I had undergone surgery for horrific pancreatic cancer and was undergoing …

An Unexpected Encounter with Laughter Tové Kane is a highly respected Master Trainer and Ambassador of Laughter Yoga, admired for her resilience and radiant spirit despite living with chronic health conditions such as Fibromyalgia and a dual-chamber cardiac pacemaker. Her journey began in the year 2000 during a Marketing Expo where, amidst the noise of presentations and booths, she heard an eruption of laughter coming from one of the breakout rooms.

Why I teach LY
Laughter Yoga (Hasyayoga) is a practice involving prolonged voluntary laughter. Laughter Yoga is based on the belief that voluntary laughter provides the same physiological and psychological benefits as spotaneous laughter. I have intergrated other healing techiques into my practice that has made Yoga Speaks Volume-LA very popular. I have traveled and spoke at conferences, taught workshops and worked all over the world teaching the power of laughter. On of my proudest moments was meeting Dr. Kataria and all the LY teachers around the world. That's healing within itself.
