"Of course, I never imagined I'd actually be doing it at this age but when the opportunity arose I thought, 'Why not? It sounds fun!'" Saruwaka said.

Saruwaka is now a member of Ara Style Senior, Japan's only breakdancing club of its kind made up of elderly citizens.

On a recent Friday, eight members gathered in a community center wearing matching orange and green T-shirts to rehearse for a performance at a local festival in two days.
