Balance Quote by Amy Purdy

“The human foot has bones and muscles and can balance…” quote by Amy Purdy — Download Open image

“The human foot has bones and muscles and can balance back and forth. If you step and you maybe make a little mistake, your foot can compensate. But if I step in the wrong spot, my foot isn't going to compensate because it's just one piece of carbon fiber.”
