Toe Walk
Walk on the balls of the feet with the heels held high all the way; the calves carry every step.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall on the balls of the feet, arms relaxed, a clear path ahead.
Steps
- Walk with short steps, high on the toes.
- Arms relaxed and swinging, torso tall.
- Come down off the toes only at the end of the walk.
Common mistakes
Heels sinking as the calves tire: rise again or end the walk. Leaning forward to keep going: stay tall. Stomping onto the toes: land lightly each step.
Breathing
Steady throughout the walk.
