In India, Laughter yoga has been introduced in many schools in the cities of Surat, Baroda and Bangalore.

That includes 10 minutes of laughter in morning assembly followed by five minutes of laughter session in the classrooms at the beginning and at the end of the day.

This regular practice has shown that the mood and atmosphere changes for the better. Teachers and students are happier with a more positive outlook, communication is improved, less discipline is required and attendance improved. Academic results have shown improvement. Apart from India, there are laughter clubs in Ithaca College in NY and Minnesota that attracts many youngsters and are fast becoming popular.
