Icon12 Course Teaches How to Walk in High Heels >>   Show Printable Version  Show Printable Version   Email this Page  Email this Page  

A college in London is offering 16-year-old girls a six-week course on how to walk in high heels.

The 'Sexy Heels in the City' course is supposedly designed to prepare girls for the 'business world and their social lives'.

Click the image to open in full size.

South Thames College is paying Chyna Whyne, author of Mastering The Art Of Wearing High Heels, £60 an hour to pass on her expertise.

Miss Whyne, a former backing singer for Elton John, claims her life was made a misery because she was not taught how to walk in such shoes.

She insists women should be taught the skills at an early age as it will be better for them 'in the long run'.

The course also involves learning how to walk on a catwalk and shop for shoes.

Toni Eastwood, of training provider Everywoman, said: "This sounds like Britain's most trivial course.

"It panders to stereotypes. It's an extraordinary waste of money and time."

I think this course is a must for any woman! It should be just after how to cook up how to park a car

"How to dial an osteopath!" should be the next course.
