It may be a cliché, but age really is irrelevant. Nobody could have demonstrated this better than Shirley Clements, a Canadian high school dance teacher in her sixties. She was getting ready for retirement in 2015 despite her love for teaching. She knew the time had come to move on. Instead of becoming melancholic, she made the decision to join her students for a yearly dance competition she started nineteen years previously. You will never look at aging the same way once you see this competition.
