Winter is Waddling Toward US

Learn to protect yourself in Edmonton’s winters with snow and ice. How: Walk Like a Penguin
• Bend slightly and walk flat footed.
• Point your feet out slightly like a penguin.
• Keep your centre of gravity over your feet
as much as possible.
• Watch where you are stepping.
• Take shorter, shuffle-like steps.
• Keep your arms at your sides (not in your
pockets!).
• Concentrate on keeping your balance.
• Go S-L-O-W-L-Y.
