Legwork
Categories: HiHeeling
As part of our very serious research on the physical health benefits of walking and the emotional health benefits of owning numerous pairs of high heels, we joined a session of Legwork, an exercise class combining principles of yoga and pilates, designed to target the muscles necessary for walking properly in heels. Following the challenging mat workout was a lesson on walking in heels. Students brought their favorite or most difficult pair, and with the aid of booming Bitch Hop, we learned to strut like supermodels. Most memorable were our instructor’s very accurate as well as hilarious demonstrations of the various mis-walks that most women perform on a daily basis, inflicting themselves with blisters and back problems, not to mention inadvertently impersonating chickens or horses at dressage.
Victor Chu, founder of Legwork and a seasoned designer of women’s shoes, also has a very interesting fashion technology portfolio.
