Fitness Model Competition - Glass Shoes

July 18, 2002

Try doing a Net search for " shoes. " You will come across various

URL's that sell these sorts of shoes. They're very easy to find in

Venice, CA and places like Hollywood, but if you're out of these

areas, it's tough. These things are not cheap either, usually

costing about US$60. Of course, I can understand the need to try

them on. Balance is often a problem If you can find one with a

strap across the ankle, I'd suggest doing that. Then make sure your

client practices walking in them. So many women get up on stage and

have a hard time; the shoes throw their natural gait off and they

walk like stiff-legged cows. I've also seen some ladies have some

very close calls of falling off these things. Most promoters are

well aware of this and will assist these women up stairs on to a

platform.

I understand that the best thing to try to do when walking is to put

the weight on your toes and not try to shift it to the heel until

you are simply standing. So again, it takes some practice.

Good luck!
