CAT WALK TIPS!!

CAT WALK TIPS FOR MODELS :
Learn to stand like a supermodel. Practice your posture, throw your shoulders back, and push your pelvis slightly forward. It might create the illusion that you're leaning back a little, rather than hunching forward.
1. Look straight forward, capturing the essence of the clothes you're wearing with the expression on your face. Focus on an object straight ahead of you. Keep your chin down a little and your eyes up - you want the spectators to see your face without looking down completely. Keep your head still as your body moves down the runway. Don't swing your upper arms, try to look natural and let your lower arms gently sway as you walk. When you make your turn at the end, take one step back, pivot on that back foot and let your head be the last part of your body to move.
2. Train yourself to place the ball of the foot down first, and keep all of your weight balanced there rather than on the heel. It may feel strange, but placing the ball of the foot down first gives you more of an elegant stride than a clunky heel-first walk would. It's almost like walking on your tippy-toes, the way ballerinas do.
3. Put one foot in front of the other (literally). Toes should face forward. Your footprints should form a single line, as if you are walking on a rope or a beam. When done quickly, this gives the body that characteristic swing.
4. Make your stride look long and commanding by lifting your legs almost in the same fashion a horse would. For each stride, you want to lift your foot a good distance off the ground (with a bend in the knee) and then place it down a good distance in front of the supporting leg.
5. Fingers naturally curl under when relaxed, but don't let them! this makes it look like you have NO fingers, especially in pictures. Just let them hang straight down, shaking your hands out will help your fingers relax and look more natural.
Watch supermodels walk the walk. Learn from the best so that you don't have to reinvent the wheel.
If you should trip, fall, or have any other unfortunate circumstance, recover gracefully. Smile laugh, and keep going as if it never happened. Nothing will demonstrate your confidence like your performance under stressful circumstances.
The best way to create your own unique style is to experiment, practice, and get feedback.
