How to walk: Should elbows be bent?

Rent My Fair Lady and watch it.  You can pause and rewind as much as you like when you get to the part where he teaches her to walk.

Slightly, you don't want your arms hanging there like there dead!

*relax....what's with all these questions about how to walk?*

Answer 4

Unless you want to look like a robot or a runway model then yes

Answer 5

elbows should be bent and held at a 90 degree angle to the ground with the exception of steep inclines in which arms should be held straight out at the exact angle of the incline, I like to attach and protractor to my belt for this reason.

Another exception is when walking with a date, arms should be angled outward to avoid unnecessary bodily contact.
