Have you guys seen this video? http://gawker.com/5889996/baby+swinging-yoga-guru-still-terrorizing-babies-listen-to-them-cry
I don't understand how this woman has a business, I couldn't make it through the entire video because I was too scared and horrified for those babies.
I've been Googling this woman, Lena Fokina, and she has/had a business swinging babies in Egypt.

Oh my goodness I couldn't get past the first 29 seconds of the video. This is horrible! The baby is crying for goodness sake. How is this legal?!?!

That is horrifying. I did watch the whole thing, but it was so hard to watch. Parents who allow their children to be subjected to something like that need to be investigated by CPS.

No way am I clicking on that link again. One of my friends sent it to me, and I watched it for maybe 15 seconds before I turned it off due to the horror. That just looks terrifying.

Terrible! Couldn't get passed the first few seconds with that baby crying! I literally see arms popping out of socket with that!!
BTW, how is that yoga?! It looks like she is using the babies as a personal toy for juggling!

It's not yoga--it's pure craziness! She looks like she's doing a kettlebell workout with a baby. I read another article about her that mentions how the babies scream, cry, and vomit while she's doing it, but she and her clients still believe it's beneficial and that the babies like it.

I was so disturbed watching that video. I started crying and couldn't get through the entire thing. Who would think that is good for a baby??????

I couldn't watch more than the first part of the video. Too awful for words.

I don't have sound on this computer, and had no clue the baby was crying, (and my screen is tiny)--I kept thinking that must be a doll, no one would do that to a baby.
I only made it through a few seconds before I had to turn it off.
In my head "baby swinging yoga" was like... mom is on the matt doing yoga, and sometimes she picks up the baby and the image in my head was SO CUTE. and SO NOT what that video actually was.
