There's also Edith Wilma Connor, 77 (current oldest female bodybuilder) and Tao Porchon-Lynch, 93 (oldest living yoga teacher).

Wow! Love it!

But how about these gals too!
- In 2012 Edith Wilma Connor, a 77-yr-old woman from Denver, Colorado, was declared the oldest competitive female bodybuilder by the Guinness Book of World Records. She entered her first competition on her 65th birthday and won first place at the Grand Masters in Las Vegas.

And in White Plains, NY, 93-year-old Tao Porchon-Lynch has been recognized as the Oldest Living Yoga Teacher by Guinness World Records.

I better start being more disciplined about doing yoga!

Imhere2dance, thanks for the picture of Wendy Ida! I am not familiar with her, as I don't do or own a lot of Leslies. But Wendy is an inspiration to me! When I am in shape and have been working out pretty good, that's what I look like (the beach picture of her in black, not the competitive body builder shot). I think that is an ideal look for me, as she has my general body shape. It's good to know I can look like that at 60!

She looks like your typical grandma, with short white hair, but she does not move like one!

Tao Porchon-Lynch is a fave for me, too! Not interested in becoming a vegetarian (as she is), but hope I can keep up the yoga as I age!

You can find all kinds of videos of her on YouTube if you search, but here is a short one:

and I actually have this as one of my favorites on my computer:
