Agbegnenou and Ourahmoune, these champions who make you play sports at home

"Why should we have limited virtual lessons to confinement," questions Clarisse Agbegnenou. On the contrary, it is something that should be democratized, especially within companies. Active for several months, the quadruple world judo champion was still offering a yoga session to her community last Saturday. She also continues to share her preparation sessions. “I am convinced of the benefits of sport on physical and mental health. I want to help maintain the French enthusiasm for sport during confinement and I believe that we sportsmen, we are ambassadors and that it is a fair return to help the French to feel good through the practice of sport. "

In interaction with his students

No question either of stopping for Sarah Ourahmoune. During confinement, the boxer attracted up to 1,500 people during her almost daily sports sessions. "I have had people from all walks of life and all levels in recent weeks, including people who have never been in a gym, especially for fear of the eyes of others," said the Olympic vice-champion. With them, nobody watches them, the complexes fly away. Even those who have never done a jump rope, can dare to start. "

The sportswoman therefore offers anonymous sessions that can be followed live (on Twitter or YouTube) or at her own pace - and innovates with sessions on Zoom (on Saturdays). With this time an interaction with his students. "This allows me to correct and encourage them," she notes. What should have been a parenthesis during confinement has turned into an adventure.

"I film my own sessions, I post or I store for the next few days", laughs this hyperactive. “At the beginning, when I saw that I had experienced athletes and over 70 year olds in the same course, it destabilized me. But it forced me to innovate. In today's society, people peck, follow your course one day, another that of another person, without necessarily a logic of progression. A phenomenon that must oblige sports associations to reinvent themselves to capture this new audience. "
