Baby yoga of a Russian woman shocks people that reach the level of abuse.

Lena Fokina (51) has practising the techniques of baby yoga for the past 30 years which is for from 2 weeks to 2 yeas, the UK Daily Mail said.

Lena can be seen a baby over her head and spin and somersault the babies by their wrists and ankes in film. And most of the baby were screaming or crying, and vomited during or after their 'baby dynamics' session.

Lena said said baby enjoy the movemants. "The method was developed to cure and correct the health of children having muscular or skeletal problems but it is also suitable for healthy children."

"The movements are designed to improve their muscular abilities and development. And the children often turn out to be early readers, singers, talkers, swimmers. It also makes their hands stronger. We are humanists and we don't do anything wrong", she added.

In Dahab, Egypt, there is a seminar of Lena called 'Parenting the Deliberate Way' and some parents from Europe were paying her and attend the seminar to same moves on their infants.

Doctors have warned dramatic and unnatural movements for young baby can lead to brain bleeding, retinal hemorrhaging and brain swelling, known as Shaken Baby Sydrome (SBS). And some researchers said that SBS can occur lower levels of head movement than prviously thought.
