பாட்டிக்கு வயது 93 ஆனால்

கின்னஸ் புத்தகத்தின் தரவுப்படி உலகின் மிகப்பழமையான யோகா ஆசிரியையாக டஓ போர்ச்சன் லின்ச் என்ற 93 வயது நிரம்பிய பெண் காணப்படுகிறார். தனது வாழ்நாளில் பல்லாயிரக் கணக்கான மாணவர்களுக்கு யோகா கற்பித்த பெருமைக்குரியவர்.

தற்போது நியூயோர்க் நகரில் அமைந்துள்ள பயிற்சி நிலையத்தில் தொடர்ந்தும் யோகா கற்பித்து வருகிறார். யோகாவில் சுமார் 80 வருட அனுபவமுள்ள இவரிடம் பயிற்சி பெற பலரும் விரும்புகின்றனர்.

இது குறித்து டஓ போர்ச்சன் லின்ச் தெரிவிக்கையில், எனது நாள் யோகா மூலம் ஆரம்பமாகிறது, நான் யோகாவை மிகவும் விரும்புகிறேன் என்றார்.

18 வயது சுறுசுறுப்பு ஆச்சரியம் தான்
