Is It Possible To Walk Too Straight?

[Badabang]

Lately I've been told that I walk with my back too straight, my chest too puffed out,etc in a way that really doesn't look smooth and natural. My mom even told me it looks like I have a broom up in there when I walk that way. Have you ever heard those types of comments too? If that's the case, how did you solve the problem? I used to walk with my head very forward, so now I'm always scared of going back at it if I don't go full military mode. It also hurts my back when I walk that way. I'd just wish I could have good confident posture while also looking natural and smooth instead of horribly rigid. Thanks for you collaboration

What I've found is that basically you want to have a straight posture with chest puffed out, with shoulders back, but not so much that it looks like caricature. I think that having posture that is too straight can make you seem rigid and stiff. Basically what you want is to walk with smooth motions. I think Liam Neeson exemplifies this perfectly here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRZh_NO5tic&t=2m40s

I also like this dudes, walk. Seems really smooth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75aX9mlipiY&t=1m30s

My 2 cents.
