The purpose of this study was to clarify the effect of rheumatic gymnastics walking ability in older adults with joint pain. This type of research is "True Experimental" with The Randomized Pre Test and Post Test Control Group Design. Population is elderly in elderly house of Dharma Bhakti Pajang Surakarta who suffer joint pain and not in a state of total dependency. Sample was elderly who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria are 40 people (20 people per group). Nonnality test data used the Kolmogorov-Smimov test. Analysis of data (pre and post test) with a paired t test (for normal data) and Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test test (for not normal data) with significance level of 95%. Changes in walking ability differences between groups were tested with unpaired t test with significance level of 95%. The results showed all components of the ability to walk (the mileage, stride length, walking speed) in the treatment group experienced an increase, in which all prices are p <0,05. The results showed that in the control group only increased mileage which has a p-value = 0,008 (p <0,05). The results of the study data analysis between groups showed that only the mileage have p <0,05 (p = 0,022), which means 'that there are significant differences between groups. It needs a longer time for the adoption and application of the distance so exercise movement performed by the elderly is closer to the direction of movement so that the effect of exercise on walking ability is higher.
