Oldest Living Yoga Teacher - Tao Porchon Lynch

93-year-old Tao Porchon-Lynch has been recognized as the Oldest Living Yoga Teacher by Guinness World Records. With 400 students, she's a busy one, too. Her interest in yoga began when she was just a child, but her interests and work have been all over the map – literally.



She worked as a cabaret dancer in London and modeled in Paris after winning a contest for the "Best Legs in Europe." She later traveled to the U.S. and worked at MGM as a starlet. She also pursued an acting career, followed by script-writing and documentary producing.

Porchon-Lynch found her ultimate calling later in life. She embraced her interest in yoga at age 73 and turned teaching into her primary career. Currently, Porchon-Lynch teaches yoga four days a week at her local JCC.

"I believe that we can always reach just a little bit further, I'm inspired to bring yoga into others' lives along with helping people unearth new talents." she said in a Guinness press release.
