It slipped our mind that the Kangatraining class we were dropping in on wasn’t one with moms and their quiet sleeping babies, but with excitable five to 10-year-olds with quick feet. Kangatraining is a baby-wearing full-body workout for mothers, usually done while holding babies in carriers wrapped around their bodies. But when coach Pooja Jambotkar’s son Rivaan got too old for a carrier, she decided to enroll herself in a Kangakids certified course, an updated version of the workout, so she could continue exercising with her workout buddy. Here’s what her Kangakids class looks like.
The class — at a studio in Phulawa’s School of Dance and Gymnastics, Mahim — begins with a warm-up session, although the kids seem to have already warmed up by running around the studio, caught up in their own games.
