Moonwalk
The moonwalk is legendary all over the world. First made popular by Michael Jackson in the early 1980s, it's part walking backward and part shuffle. But when you and your friends try it, it will be all fun! It's easy to moonwalk as long as you remember a few key tips. Watch this eHow video tutorial on Moonwalk Dance Step Basics.
Instructions
1. Put on the old moon boots. This is what the footwear required to moonwalk is called, but truthfully you do not need a pair of early 1980s retro Michael Jackson moon boots. Just find a pair of shoes with smooth soles (not hiking boots) like Converse high-tops or dress shoes, or maybe even Keds. If all else fails, just wear socks.
2. Find a flat, smooth surface that won't provide an immense amount of friction. Wood floors are ideal, while concrete or rubber surfaces will hinder you. Carpet, depending on the length (the shorter the better) can be effective.
3. Lift your left leg into the "l" position, so that the toe of your left leg is pointed to the floor. You are ready to moonwalk like Michael Jackson.
4. Place your right foot about 12 inches in front of the left.
5. Slide your right heel back so that it is even with your left foot.
6. Snap the left heel down and raise the right heel simultaneously so the right heel assumes the "l" position. You have now completed the first step of the moonwalking dance!
7. Repeat! Keep repeating the movement, alternating feet to execute the dance of the last century, the moonwalk.
