Like most of you, I’m going to be at home for a while, so my new things won’t be very big in scale, but I will try and keep them fun!
I’d wager that today’s new thing – learning to Moonwalk – most of us have had a go at before. I’d be lying if I said I haven’t tried to bust one out on the dancefloor before! Whilst my previous attempts have always been in the heat of the moment, today I was going to try and learn how to do it for real.
For this, I watched a couple of Youtube videos and tried a few different techniques, but the one that seemed to easiest to follow was here.
Although Michael Jackson made it look like such a smooth movement, for someone who has two left feet, it was really hard! I tried so many times and it constantly felt like I was just clumsily, walking backwards. However, when I looked back at the videos, I found some first steps of a Moonwalk and tried again…
Unfortunately, that was the closest I got. I think with a bit of practice I’ll be able to do it properly, so I’ll keep going until I’m ready to show off my dance moves for the next opportunity!
New Day, New Thing
