Instructions to disrupt usual walking patterns

The purpose of these instructions is to prompt you to think about moving in a different way. Each instruction should be followed for at least 5 minutes*

You decide:
How many instructions you follow each day
The order in which the instructions are followed
How many times you follow the instruction

Walk backwards

Skip to work

Change direction every time you walk on a different surface

Stride

Walk barefoot

Notice the different surfaces that you step on

Hop

Walk to work an hour later than usual and notice the difference

Move at the same pace as the person next to you

Walk round the perimeter of buildings as opposed to through open space

Shuffle

Close your eyes and let someone else to give you directions of where to go

Every time you cross a road, alter the pace of your walk
