WORLD'S OLDEST YOGA TEACHER TURNS 101 TODAY

8/13/2019

 
Tao Porchon-Lynch, the world’s oldest yoga teacher who turns 101 today,  kicked off her birthday week doing what she loves best — teaching her weekly Sunday class.  Sixty students showed up for her special day birthday class bringing fruit salad, champagne and a carrot cake inscribed “101 and fabulous” to toast their teacher who was recognized by the Guinness World Records as the “World’s Oldest Yoga Teacher” in 2012.

As the celebratory pictures found their way to Instagram, messages from fans from around the world, including from Norway, Germany, India, Spain and Brazil, flooded the comments section thanking her for inspiring them.

“To me 101 is natural. It doesn’t scare me. I awake with the sun and think of all my many friends and that makes me ready to know that you never put anything off for tomorrow because tomorrow never comes,” Porchon-Lynch, a resident of White Plains, NYT.
