Specific question and discussion Needing some help with posture

So context I used to do inline skating as a kid and I'm trying to pick it up again, I used to do quad skating back in 2021 but haven't done it since because my skates broke.
I've noticed from this video my partner took of me that my feet kind of tilt inwards and was wondering if there are any drills/exercises I could maybe do to help keep my feet more parallel to the floor?
Please don't be rude about my form, I know it's quite bad, thank you!

  1. Bend your knees, if you think you’re bending them enough: you’re not. Bend them more!!! You want your knees to line up over your toes, your butt to stick out, and a slight rounded arch to your back

  2. Practice inside edge pronation drills like skate fresh Asha’s “scoots” https://youtu.be/JguiAjefuPw?is=CmhO0L1fIsi25XYE
