I can do a good curtsey but I can't even imagine in a kimono. The skirt of one can't be easy. But I guess she has plenty of practice at it.

I'm amazed by the agility of Anne, her figure is great for 66.
Camilla was properly bashed by some because she's not able anymore to do those low curtseys. But she has some well known back problems and clearly has not the same fitness than her in laws...

]Yes, osteoporosis is a family problem with both her mother and grandmother living in chronic pain and dying from its complications.
I remember Zara showing how it was done and seeing Anne curtsey it's easy to see who taught her and how well.

Well said. I am not a fan of curtseys but this one with the full on eye contact between the older Princess (albeit Princess Royal) and the younger King delighted me no end. It may be my favorite curtsey ever.
And I also am amazed at her ability to pull this off. In fact, I'm going to take the photo to my yoga instructor and ask her to help me get to that level.

Wow, that's the deepest I've seen Anne curtsy since her wedding, before she and Mark left the Abbey! (which was 17 years before I was born, but I have seen video footage.)
FYI Nico, she will be 67 a month tomorrow.
