Fancy Feet aren’t just for Dancers! Articulate feet for runners, basketball players, yogis, surfers, nurses and people of all walks of life help the body absorb and transmit force. Do your feet ache after long days at work or after performing your favorite movement activity? Do you ever feel like traditional treatment options for foot/ankle pain have failed you or only resolve pain in the short term?

Follow these FOUR easy steps to increase the mobility of your foot, resulting in a more articulate foot and beautiful banana boat feet! Spend 1 minute on each step with each foot. In 8 magical minutes, a banana is born!Watch Full Movie Online Streaming Online and Download

1. Lace your fingers between your toes so that the webbing of your fingers meets the webbing of your toes. Once laced, make small infinity signs or circles with your hand to stretch the space between the metatarsals and stretch the toes. Perform for 1 minute on each foot.

2. Use a soft tennis ball and SLOWLY roll the sole of the foot from the heel to the toe tips. When you reach the arch of the foot, pause, and use your hands to mold your foot to drape passively over the ball. This stretches the tissues on the dorsal (top) aspect of the foot and increases the space between the bones in the midfoot.

3. Repeat step #2 with a wooden roller or a slightly harder prop to increase the depth of the release to the plantar tissues and mobilize the bones of the foot.

4. Stretch the ankle by padding the floor and sitting back towards your heel. Hold the stretch for at least 1 minute. Stretch one foot at a time for best results.

“I try to perform the feet exercises Kim taught me before and after every dance class I take as a warm up and cool down. I started to see my feet improving after only one day of this regimen! #biscutbegone.” – Genna Mattana. Screen Shot 2015-06-08 at 12.16.49 PM
