A large programme in the afternoon with a rousing mix of aerobics, AROHA® and yoga, suitable for all ages, invited everyone to have fun and work up a good sweat. In the evening, the gymnastics action show transported the audience into a universe of athletic power, artistic elegance and choreographic creativity.
