Toe Walk

Make sure that you are warm before performing this activity.

  • Stand side on to a fixed surface, such as your kitchen worktop, with your feet hip-width apart.
  • Lift your heels, putting your weight onto your big toes.
  • Walk up to 10 steps forwards on your toes, moving steadily and with control.
  • Bring your feet level before lowering your heels to the floor.
  • Turn around slowly towards the support, then repeat the toe walking in the other direction.

If you feel safe to do so, try the exercise without holding on to a support.
