Project Walk Fall 2009 - Stepping with Tubes

First steps without anything solid to support me.

The use of exercise tubing lets you combine balance and strength training.

Project Walk Fall 2009 - Knee Walking

This helps to practice keeping my hips in a better position when walking.

Project Walk Fall 2009 - Hiking Poles

Still practicing with hiking poles. They use a different set of muscle groups than when I use a walker.
