There’s a reason we spend so much time on footwork. 👣
Yes, it gets your legs working. But there’s a lot happening before you even press the carriage out.
Sensory receptors in the soles of your feet respond to pressure, touch and skin stretch, sending your nervous system information about where you’re making contact and how you’re distributing your weight.
That’s part of why we use bare feet in our neuro sessions—to work directly with that sensory feedback through the skin.
And in our group classes? Even with your sticky socks on, the pressure of your feet against the footbar still provides valuable sensory input. Each repetition is a chance to notice how you’re pressing, find support and coordinate that connection through the rest of your body.
Footwork deserves your attention. There’s much more to it than pushing out and coming back in.
