"Thank you Mr Gendry! I walked into your laughter session very depressed. It was Easter week-end and I was very lonely. What you had me do did not just lift stress from my body, it lifted stress from my soul." Regie Wells, Make-Up Artist Of Oprah Winfrey

"I’m knocked out both by the possibilities that my new Laughter Yoga skills opened for me and also by your inspiring leadership in the field. You’ve opened my eyes in so many ways. [...] Keep up the great work — the world needs your skills, smiles, and inspiration."

"You moved my heart strings and touched me deeply"

"The Laughter Yoga exercises have brought me back to connecting and focusing on my goals, worthyness and your influence has been extraordinary and benefical."

"This training has been the best I have ever had.  Everything was perfect and beyond my expectation.  It truly opened my eyes, ears, heart, body, mind and soul."

"For about 38 years, I have been attending educational, fitness, and yoga workshops. Yours is by far the best workshop I have been to in all these years."

"Thanks again for being such an incredible instructor and helping us all to get so silly!  I had no idea how transformational it would be to receive PERMISSION to laugh (especially in a school) as I'd always considered myself pretty optomistic and open to humor to begin with.  Now, I make it a point to give a huge smile away to everyone I meet or make eye contact with, and it's amazing how that little gesture can change your entire world."

"This was a personalized, phenomenally effective, fun, challenging, joy-filled Laughter Yoga training! I loved your teaching methods to tell, to show and then have us practice. What a powerfully, effective method to use."

"I have studied and taught yoga for years, but you clarified, enhanced and expanded my knowledge of yoga tremendously. It all came together so much more for me."

"Thank you so much for an experience that far exceeded my expectations. I came in expecting to add an enjoyable something new to my "bag of tricks" to help others, and found myself transforming my own attitude and reactions toward stress and problems that have beset me for several years. As a yoga teacher, hypnotherapist, and vision improvement teacher, I have always personally reaped the benefits of what I shared with others, but Laughter Yoga has put things in perspective as never before. You have lightened my heart and opened my eyes and mind.....thank you laughs forever!"

"I just want to say thank you so much for such a wonderful learning experience last weekend at the Chicago Laughter Yoga Leader Training. My face still hurts from laughing so hard and "feeling the Love". This is such a perfect fit for you... Your passion and sincerity comes through so loud and clear. Your teaching style is so gentle and patient and you put things in terms that are easy to understand. I loved how you could just be sitting so still and you would make a very subtle facial expression with a slight smile and it would crack everyone up. And instead of stopping there, you'd continue to build on it, never breaking the mood. Very talented. "

"Thank you so much for your heartfelt facilitation during the certification program and your authentic nature. I also really appreciated the spiritual aspects that you brought into the process."

"Thank you for doing the workshop this past weekend…it was wonderful and you are a fantastic teacher! I led my first laughter group this week and it was AMAZING!!!! OH my goodness! 18 actually showed up and we had a ball! I went through a laughter meditation at the end that took many to tears of joy, otherwise it was all laughter. One woman showed up in pain, her pain was gone by mid class. Another who has fiber mialgia had no pain and had forgotten to take her meds. Two who almost did not come but decided they would, were the hardest laughers and could not stop at the end It was moving! I am so thankful for the experience and more grateful even that I just did it!"

"Yippee!! Thank you for all you add to this glorious concept! The training was inspiring and educational - I only wish I wrote more down."
