Laughter leader Kamlesh Masalawala from Surat, India has been appointed as laughter yoga teacher, or in local parlance “Laughter Sir”, in a Sanskar Bharati Vidyalaya, a high school in Surat, India.
Laughter Yoga has been introduced in many schools in Bangalore, Mumbai and Surat, but this is for the first time any school has taken the initiative to appoint a laughter yoga teacher.
Earlier they has ‘PT Sir’ for exercises, ‘Music Sir’ for Singing and playing music and now comes ‘Laughter Sir’. Kamlesh has been officially appointed is on the payroll as as Laughter Sir. His duties are teach laughter yoga for 10 minutes to 1000 students 3 times in a week after morning assembly.
Mr. Paresh Patel, the principal of the Sanskar Bharati School is very pleased with the outcome. He believes in laughter yoga and has set himself the challenge of doing laughter yoga with 25,000 children in a stadium within 2007 to set a new official record.
This is a milestone in the development of laughter yoga, one that we see as the beginning of a worldwide trend.
In the last weeks we have heard about laughter yoga being introduced at an international school in Hawaii, at Harvard University, and at a university in China.

It’s such a wonderful thing to start with the young ones. It’ll definitely impact
them positively. It’ll be one of the fondest memories for them too when they grow up.
Thumbs up to the Principal!
