Sqaure stepping- If you have square
tiles on the floor, you can use that as your guide for this exercise just follow the Borders of that tile. Make sure that you have a big square enough for you to have a big step. But if you don’t have that, get a tape and make a square on the floor and use that as a guide. We’re going to step on each corner tracing the shape first. Next we’re going to stab one corner to the opposite corner diagonally.
Striaght line walking- Find a spot in your house or outside that has a long straight line that you can walk safely on. Follow that line when you walk with your right foot first. Then when you turn around you follow that line with your left foot.
