]]><![CDATA[2020 Shoe List!]]>Sat, 01 Feb 2020 17:49:42 GMThttps://www.sarahpetrich.com/blog/2020-shoe-listGood shoes are incredibly helpful to re-training and maintaining good walking and movement mechanics.  Always remember the first rule is they need to be comfortable but beyond that a good heel counter, wide toe box and flexibility at the toe box (but stability behind the toe box) is usually recommended.  

You should also be able to sense your WHOLE foot in a shoe when weight shifted on that side.  

Included in the new shoe list is also a guide on what to look for in a good shoe.  This year there are some additions to looking at how narrow the heel counter is so that it can really hug and control your foot on initial impact with the ground.

Ever notice one leg looks longer than the other or you are much more flexible on one side than the other despite your best stretching efforts?

The Postural Restoration Institute identified the most predictable asymmetrical dominate patterns decades ago and retrains them with specific, targeted exercises to help us be the most efficient movers we can be.  Luckily, they have now combined their concepts with Pilates in a new teacher training course to create a new unique “twist” to many of your favorite reformer, chair & mat exercises.    You can learn all about these patterns and how to effectively address them in the new Postural Restoration Integration for Pilates course.
