Can personal coordination play a role in being a victim of a crime?

I found an article on the BBC and I’m a little skeptical. I always figured that crimes were based mostly on opportunity and luck (or lack thereof). Does it really matter how you carry yourself if you’re alone in a dark alley in a bad part of town? Can you really improve your chances of not being mugged if you walk differently? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
