Amazing! I love the classical feel of this. An exercise in agility and grace (and flexibility! At 86! Incredible!). It reminds me that skill level alone does not make gymnastics beautiful - hard to remember this considering the current demand for difficulty (faster, better, stronger). This was simply beautiful and also brought a tear to my eye.
I feel the same way. I'm in my 40s and don't have that flexibility! my back hurt just watching her! In some ways, I really wish there would be an "adult" gymnastics league, centered more on the grace and agility, not the power and strength... Not sure there would be many watchers but I know I'd like it!
