Great to hear that many septuagenarians are working out out in Viet Nam!
Being elderly does not have to make you confined to watching TV, knitting and playing cards.
Not everyone can do karate, judo or taekwondo of course - but there is always the possibility of wushu or tai chi. Hey, someone has even created Slokwondo - a slow, low impact form of taekwondo - which may be just what the doctor ordered.
'Grandparate' anyone :)
Story:
At 76, there are several things that warm the heart of Nguyen Thi An, such as seeing her grandchildren smile when she slams her fist through wooden tiles.
An is one among the group of 20 elderly women, all of whom who are 70 and over, practising the martial arts, tai-chi chuan and wushu, early every morning at the residential play ground of Ha Noi's Quynh Mai Ward.
