Waltz in slings: a new type of fitness for mothers with babies
In Stavropol, a new type of fitness is gaining momentum - slingots. Young mummies with babies in slings take to the streets, squares and parks to dance in good weather, and at the same time to “walk” the child. They dance right in the slings along with the babies.
Today, over 80 Stavropol mothers have become supporters of such a passion.
Dance movements are adapted for moms, given the fact that they have carrying-backpacks with children on their chests. Pa completely safe for kids.
The studio was organized by the mother of two children; by education, choreographer Yevgeny Krasnikov.
The woman was first supported by her own friends and neighbors, and then strangers began to sign up for unusual dance courses. Soon the initiative was assessed by the medical community. Pediatricians said the joint movement very useful for children, obstetricians unanimously agreed that mom dancing in a sling faster recovery after childbirth and returns to normal physical form. Psychiatrists have noticed that dancing moms don't have the slightest sign of postpartum depression.
Gradually formed a team that now often attends various city events. The dancer's costumes sew themselves - both for themselves and for the baby, since he, too, is a member of the dance.
From May to the end of October, moms with babies dance in the streets, and in winter in children's cafes and in indoor playgrounds.
All classes for moms are free.
Stavropol mothers showed a curious example to the rest. The fascination with Slignotans has already spread to some other regions - their studios have appeared in Samara, in Moscow, in Rostov.
