Side Stepping
Please make sure you are warm before starting this exercise.
- Stand tall, facing your kitchen worktop, and look ahead.
- Hold on if needed.
- Take 2 to 3 sideways steps, then repeat the other way.
- Take your time, and continue until you have performed around 10 steps in total.
If your kitchen is big enough, take more than 2 to 3 steps in each direction.
As your balance improves, try the exercise without holding on to the worktop and perform up to 20 steps.
