In Japan, the art of community isn’t just practiced — it’s spoken. Words ending in -kai mean a gathering with purpose — turning intention into habit. From the 90-year-old “Granny of the Fields” in Aichi, to the 84-year-old café owner on Ama Island, to the elders of Okinawa — when asked their secret to a long, happy life, they all say the same: “I don’t worry.” If stress kills, then belonging heals. This kai is Undōkai — Sports Day — in the small inlet of Ukenson, Amami Island, where every generation dances together in one joyful circle. #LongevityAndTheArtOfCommunity #Japan #Undokai #AmamiIsland #NeverTooLate #BlueZoneJapan #Longevity #Community #Belonging #HealthyLongevity #AgingWell
