Pride and Prejudice, walking well is a sort of accomplishment. Elegant walking is also a lot better for you than ordinary slumpy walking. Good posture is important for a straight, healthy back, you project vitality and confidence, and you will probably feel better. Here are the things to notice when you are walking.
- Feet roll from heel to toe
- Pelvis balanced (not swinging with each step)
- Stomach held in (core muscles engaged)
- Shoulders down
- Head up
- Breath through your nose.
And then keep it going, up hills and over fields, until your skirt is six inches deep in mud!
Or until you come upon Mr Darcy!!
