The 23-time Grand Slam champion shared a video of her older daughter helping out her baby sister “work out” on Christmas Day.
Serena Williams is teaching her daughters how to train together.
On Christmas, the tennis pro, 42, shared an Instagram video of her daughter, Olympia Ohanian, 6, helping her 4-month-old baby sister Adira River “work out.”
Williams shares daughters Olympia and Adira with husband Alexis Ohanian, 40.
In the photo, Williams speaks to her eldest daughter in French as she lifts and lowers the infant and shows her how to “work out.”
“Document, document … comme ça,” Williams is heard telling Olympia (meaning “gently, gently … like that”). In the video, Olympia (wearing a ruffled red dress) carefully lifts her baby sister (in holiday jammies) from the ground and lowers her back down, holding her hands the whole time — for a sweet version of baby sit-ups.
“We all work out in this family. @adiraohanian @olympiaohanian,” wrote Williams of the family moment caught on camera.
