Namita Thapar On Staying Fit At 48: "I Mix Bollywood Dance With Gym, Yoga And Pilates"

Entrepreneur and social media personality, Namita Thapar, has shared a dance video and inspired other women to prioritize their health and well-being. In the clip she posted, Namita, who is the executive director of Emcure Pharmaceuticals, was seen dancing to Bollywood beats with a friend.

Namita highlighted how dancing with a friend can be a great way to lift your mood and stay fit during perimenopause. Exercise, in general, is a great way to alleviate symptoms like mood swings, hot flashes, and joint pain. But Namita shared that she often switches up her regular gym workouts or yoga and Pilates with a dance session.

How Namita Is 'never Bored And Always Motivated':

Namita wrote in her caption, “Perimenopause is full of mood swings, and what can be better to lift your mood and fitness than dancing with a dear friend?! My kids are named Vir and Jay after Sholay (A Bollywood classic that released in 1975) – so you can only imagine my love for Bollywood. So, I mix Bollywood dance with my gym, yoga, and Pilates to ensure I'm never bored and always motivated to move and keep that attitude of 'I'm 48, I'm going to be selfish and take care of myself, to h*** with the world, you do you girl'. Mindset gift of perimenopause!!”
