Start by sitting in a chair with good posture. Rest the edge of your heel on the floor as shown. Then, slowly trace a clockwise circle with your big toe and return to start position. Repeat, this time tracing a counter- clockwise circle. Continue for 10-15 repetitions per circle direction per ankle.

Start by standing with feet shoulder-width-apart. Next, take a step forward and allow your front knee to bend. Your back knee may bend as well. Then, return to original position, or you may

walk and take a step forward and repeat with the other leg. Keep your pelvis level and straight the entire time. Your front knee should bend in line with the 2nd toe and not pass the front of the foot.

Not all exercises are appropriate for every person. Please consult with a healthcare provider before starting.
