At 60, this pole-dancing Singaporean influencer is showing how to age well

By taking up diverse physical challenges and pursuing new knowledge, she proves that a person’s seventh decade can be one of expansion.

The posts on her Instagram account @skeletalwombat (she fell in love with wombats during a trip to Australia, while “skeletal” reflects that she is thin) could easily be mistaken for outtakes from a fashion editorial or behind-the-scenes stills from a campaign shoot. It is clear that Poh loves strutting her stuff for her followers – but she does not consider herself an influencer.

“I just enjoy dressing up. Even in my younger days, I liked experimenting with clothes to channel different vibes and moods,” she says.

“I wanted to remember those outfits and how I felt wearing them, so I’d take photos or videos before going out and post them on Instagram. Over time, my account evolved into a digital journal of all my different looks.”
