It was a case of arthritis that brought Mabes Morrill to yoga. The 91-year-old yoga instructor recently brought her love of yoga to NBC's "TODAY" show and even taught a few moves.

While living in Venezuela in the late 1960s, Morrill developed a bad case of arthritis. A neighbor helped her ease the pain with yoga. In return, Morrill brought yoga to the states where she has been teaching for the last 40 years -- for free.

Practicing yoga has done a great deal for the nonagenarian's health, as she claims to be ailment free. Want to learn a few yoga moves? Check out the above video for a how-to from Morrill.
