101-year-old Dinkie Flowers, who is one of the oldest women in the UK, shared what keeps her healthy and spry as she ages. Flowers dances everyday and practices ballet moves on a barre, claiming that the daily ritual keeps her feeling young and happy. Flowers is a former professional dancer and owner of a dance school, called Dinkie Flowers Stage School, and didn’t want to give up her passion because of her age. The grandmother of four has been dancing since she was three years old and traveled all over the world performing. Flowers believes that it’s never too late to start dancing, and that she’ll keep on groovin’ until “they take me away in a box.”
