First Person: I’m Norma Abraham, and I’m a 90-year-old ballerina

‘My profession was actually as an opera singer. I was singing professionally until I was about 60 – that was 30 years ago.

I’ve only been doing ballet classes since Tina (professional ballet dancer and choreographer Tina Yong) started running it at ReCreation Health Club Trackside in Hampton a few years ago. Tina said to me, “You should come to ballet”.

I said, “At 86, 87?” And she said, “Yes, you can do it”.’
