Walking in Heels….Nothing More Than a Balancing Act.
Walking in Heels….Nothing More Than a Balancing Act.
Hello Everyone!
I actually came to writing this post by accident. I’m a Canuck gal, so playing hockey is part a big part of my life. I was having difficulty with my skating, and i wanted to improve during this past summer. My agility and lack of foot speed was slowing me down. I asked around, and did some web searches and decided that my balance needed to be improved. Thats means to practice my balance away from the ice all together. I purchased two different balance or “wobble” boards. So there I was, in my living room struggling to stand on the 2 foot square piece of wood. Many concerned and confused looks from my dog also! As I started, I could feel the tendons and muscles being worked in legs. Little by little over the next few weeks, my posture and balance seemed to be much better. I was training in my running shoes and wearing high heels didnt even enter my mind. I was going out one day and figured my outfit needed a pair of heels as the finishing touch. I couldn’t believe the way i was moving.
With grace and agility that was never there before I felt i was walking on air. If any of you ladies are having difficulty in heels, you just might want to temporarily trade them in for your runners. This works. Big time. Practice balance separately….you WILL see results. They are simple to make, costing under $5 worth of lumber. Here is a link where they can be purchased.

I reccommend this style because it worked for me. Be careful at first, take frequent breaks but stick with it. Youll be tearing up the runway in no time. Special thanks and much love to my dear sister Denae….you taught me to be a lady. You are such a blessing to us all. Your instructional DVDs have helped me so much. I was lost without them!
