The 40+ Double Dutch Club on Chicago's Southside is proving age is just a number. The all-female group meets weekly to jump, sing, and act like a kid again all while staying fit.

OMG...I am 43 years old and back in the day growing up in Newark, NJ this is what we used to do. We stayed outside jumping rope. None of us had time to gain weight or get in trouble. Man the memories. Keep up the good work ladies 😁.

I would have loved to jump in school but we had cliques, so I would practice jumping to no end at home. So I did the next best thing of turning the ropes and singing the songs. I work at a school and we need songs that were sung while doing Double Dutch. If anyone has any songs that they remember, please comment to me. Thank you.

I know. Other would like to join _too_ but let's face it, us women over 40 have challenges that maybe other, younger women are not facing. I see this as a very good thing. Possibly they could start - if you will - a sister group. That could be for women of a different age group.

👠 well said ! Jump rope, and any "outdoor" game teach social skills, and sometime how to handle (juggle & manuever through life)! These days these kids are either on their phones, oe inside playing vid games - which is why they (some) camnot or do not know how to any "life pressures"! sad
