Historical information

In the 1990s and early 2000s, the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria conducted a range of exercise classes under the theme, "Move It Or Lose It". One such class was a pole exercise class for the Vietnamese community, designed for people 60 years of age and over. In this photo, a man and an elderly woman (and another person, partially obscured) are exercising on a grass lawn outdoors. They are each holding a wooden pole horizontally above their heads, with their arms outstretched. The man is leaning backwards, as he pushes his pelvis pushed forward. In the background, there is a multi-story building in the distance.
