About Foot Taps In And Out

Foot Taps In And Out moves the feet from a narrower position to a wider one and back while the hands rest on the lap. The task is a light, even foot-placement rhythm rather than a large reach with the legs.

What to focus on

Keep the upper body steady while the feet move.
Place the feet lightly and use a comfortable distance between them.

Make the movement smaller

Tap a smaller distance outward and slow the rhythm so each placement is deliberate.

A mistake to watch for

Dragging the feet far enough to rock the chair or torso. Shorten the step and keep the movement light.

Practice time and pacing

The app assigns 30 seconds to Foot Taps In And Out. Use that as a time block, with pauses whenever you need them. Move at the demonstration’s controlled pace; the timer is not a repetition target. Watch the full movement once before following along.

Set a firm chair on a nonslip surface and leave room for the arm and leg movements shown. A chair without wheels keeps the setup steady.
