We’re often told it’s never too late to take up a hobby and this woman is proof of just that.

 

At 91-years-old, Johanna Quaas is the oldest gymnast in the world and has been wowing audiences for the past 40 years.

 

 

Born into a family of gymnasts in 1925, Johanna trained in her school and at the local playground but gave up on the sport after having a family of her own.

 

Fast forward 30 years and Johanna was ready to get back into the swing of things – literally.

 

 

What’s her secret?

 

Well, the mum-of-three says a healthy diet, plenty of greens and yoga keep her fighting fit.

 

 

The 91-year-old was officially named the world’s oldest gymnast in the Guiness World Book of Records five years ago.

 

“I’m really excited that I’m in the book and that my achievements in my area of sport have been recognised and honoured in this way.”
