Japan Pom Pom - the cheerleading squad for the over 55s

When Fumie Takino was 63, she started Japan Pom Pom, a cheerleading troupe for the over-55s. She's now 84 and still dancing for the troupe, who put on regular performances at sporting and charity events. Alessia Cerantola went to a dance studio in Tokyo to meet Fumie.
