What springs to mind when you think of someone in their 90s? Well less spring in their step for sure!
This however, is not the case for Bernice Bates, a 91-year old mother of three, grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of three.
This sprightly pensioner has stretched her way into the Guinness Book of Records as the oldest yoga teacher in the world. Starting yoga in 1960 (when Bates was in her 50s), Bates says “Yoga gives you flexibility like you’ve never had before, and it makes you healthy because you’re working on the whole body, inside and out”.
Think being 90 and feeling half your age is too good to be true? Well, check out how Bates does it – it’s never to late to get your yoga on!
