Heel-toe shifting technique

My attempt at demonstrating heel-toe downshifting technique. This is a single-clutch technique. Double-clutching can also be useful. Some day I'll get around to making a video demonstrating that. :)

I prefer wearing high heels

Article by Marissa Connie

High heel shoes have been popular for centuries. Their glamorous look and total impracticality make them a "must" for women who are dressing up or wish to show off their style. While they are most commonly known for killing your feet, heels actually can have some health benefits as well. So think twice before you buy those beautiful heels. It is wise to wear heels depending on the occasion.

High heels appear in illustrated history as early as 4000 B.C. in Egyptian temple murals. At one point in time, heels were almost entirely monopolized by men because they made horseback riding easier, but everyone who wished to add a little height enjoyed the fashion whether they were men or women. Today, high heels are extremely stylish, but mostly worn by women. In addition, a recent focus on the damage that extremely high or pointed shoes can do to the feet, ankles and back have led many women to limit their wearing of heels and reserve them for extremely formal or dressy occasions.

High heels can serve many purposes. Many people wear them to make their legs appear longer and to give the illusion of height. Heels are also very flattering to the calves, and are popular with skirts that are knee length or shorter. Shoes with heels tip the pelvis forward and gives the body a shapely curve, albeit at a price to the health of your spine and feet. There are many types of high heel. heels can be chunky, and almost like a platform, or they can be stilettos, and have a very pointy, narrow heel. Some people classify platform shoes as heels as well. Generally, anything over an inch is considered to be a heel, with lower elevations called "pumps" or "kitten heels." However, this distinction is not a formal one, and some people consider any shoe that does not have a flat, athletic sole to be a heel.Many people believe that wearing high heels successfully is largely a question of will power, and as a result they force themselves and their feet to undergo serious stress in order to "get used to" wearing heels. While high heels can give your legs great exposure, it is not advisable to wear them all the time. heels place unusually high pressure on certain parts of your foot, which can cause corns and damage tendons over time.If you know that you are going to be wearing high heels for an extended period of time, do some preparation to protect your feet and make the experience comfortable rather than a literal pain. Gel foot pads can help cushion the high pressure areas of the foot, and walking or standing in the shoes for up to an hour each day before you are going to wear them out for an evening will help build your endurance without straining your tendons too greatly. If possible, wear heels that have backs or at least straps that will hold them firmly on your feet.
