Tips For Model On CatWalk

Wearing and walking in sexy high heels is a totally different walking experience and it is not too difficult. With a bit of practice, you will step out in high heels in no time.

1. After you wear your sexy high heels, stand up slowly and get used to the new positioning of your weight. Have something nearby that you can grab on to because you might feel like tipping over at first. In front of a full length mirror, stand for a while, and then turn slightly to each side. Not only will you be able to check your posture and profile, but the act of merely standing in high heels will help remove some of your apprehension, and let you get accustomed to the added height of the heel.

2. Take a few steps in your high heels. Keep your legs as straight as possible and close together. Start off with slow, short steps, placing your heel down first then rolling onto the flat of your foot, then the ball, and then your toes. Remember also to swing your arms because it will help you keep your balance. With each step, point your feet as straight in front of you as you can. If possible, do this at first on a hard floor (not too slick).

3. Continue walking back and forth across the room, turning different directions, and stopping without wobbling on your high heels. The more relaxed you are, the easier it will be to keep your balance. Part of looking fierce is projecting confidence. So remember to keep your back straight, head up, and round out those shoulders. There is no slouching in fashion.

4. As you become more comfortable with your high heels or platform shoes, practice on various surfaces, like low carpeting and wood floors. Do not do practice on thick or padded carpeting because it can throw off your balance. Start off slowly with each surface and remember to work on stops, turns and even slow dancing. Avoid sand, dirt, mud, grass (your heel with sink into the dirt like a golf peg), snow, sleet, broken gravel, or any surface that is more difficult to walk on.

5. Finally, add that extra pop to your step, with a tip from the fiercest walkers of all: Models! When models walk down the runway they will take their foot and cross it slightly over the imaginary line onto the opposite side. This is what creates that sashay in the hips and neatly completes that fierce walk.

6. Have fun and practice!
