New York, N.Y. (Jan. 23, 2007) - Ericka Simmons of KangooNYC.com presented attorney Brian Schachter, winner of the Business Development Institute's Nikki Beach networking event prize drawing, with a pair of Kangoo Jumps at Schachter's Park Avenue law offices, Schachter and Levine, LLP, on Jan.17.

"I hit the jackpot," said Schachter, who is recovering from an ankle injury and is hopeful that the low-impact running and aerobic fitness shoes will help get him back into a running routine.

Simmons, a certified fitness instructor who discovered Kangoo Jumps while on the road to recovery from major knee surgery, shared her own experiences with using Kangoo shoes in her fitness routine. "Kangoo Jumps got me running again," said Simmons. "My experiences inspired me to bring Kangoo into the lives of those who not only want a great workout and healthy lifestyle, but also to those individuals whose fitness routines may be hampered by lower leg injuries."

"Kangoo Jumps' architecture and technology supports the intense training regimens of athletes such as runners and marathoners. Anyone looking to start an aerobic fitness routine or to expand their fitness training can also benefit from Kangoo Jumps.

Kangoo Jumps, popular among runners and athletes in training, and in the rehabilitation of lower leg injuries, are now available to the mass consumer market through KangooNYC.com the official Kangoo footgear and product distribution web site represented by Simmons, a young entrepreneur with business interests in New York City, New Jersey and Philadelphia.

According to a study by the J.M. Buchanan Exercise Science Laboratory, School of Human Kinetics, at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, 25 novice runners who used Kangoo Jumps experienced greater cardiovascular improvement and fewer injuries when compared to the group wearing regular running shoes.

The benefits of low-impact aerobics and running range from cardiovascular and muscular, to fat reduction and cellular revitalization.
