All right, you guys. So now we're going to get into the Moonwalk, which was debuted by Michael Jackson in 1982 for the Motown 25th anniversary. If you haven't seen it yet, you've got to check it out. Please do.
So the Moonwalk: What creates the illusion is the fact that he's shifting weight, as he usually does in most of his moves, but he's shifting weight using the terminology from gliding.
So with that in mind, let us start out by pressing through the right foot. Now, as you press, this is what the right foot would be doing. You're here, and you're pressing all the way through to the heel. The other foot is just simply sliding back. Now, keep in mind that the leg that slides back, you don't want the weight to be on this leg. You want it to be sorely on the right, since this is the one that's creating the push, so if I did it slowly, it would look like this.
Now, what's going to happen is I'm going to change weight, shift it, the left heel is going to come up, and the left heel is going to push through like this, and as the left leg pushes through, my right foot goes here simultaneously. It looks like this. And then you switch and shift over to your right side. Shift. Switch to your left. Shift right. Shift left.
So with that in mind, let's try it a little faster. I'm going to go here. Shift. Left comes up. Shift. Right comes up. Left comes up. Right comes up. And so on and so forth.
Now, that is your Moonwalk.

sorry but his moonwalk just didn't look right, it didn't have the flow, through my own experience, you do have to feel it. feel the music.

[@Mickado]

“moonwalk backwards” would be walking normally 😂👌🔥

[@DeepJackalope57360]

Lol true

[@bts7jk24]

Exactly

[@TheElectricCheeseProductions22]

No, it would be gliding forward

[@CJRoyalOfficial]

ha. ha. ha. very funny. u got the whole squad laughing.😐

[@rajewellers84]

First you learn how to do moonwalk

[@redacted4601]

You float in the moon and walk and then a moonwalk!

[@samuelcabrera4314]

this moonwalk doesnt give it as much of an illusion

[@adamyoussef1574]

TurnThe BowlOver i was thinking that too its too unreal

[@gokusan8857]

Ongggggg only MJ can do that effect

[@santoshmahala835]

[@TONYTFOREVER]

I don't mean to be rude but Michael did the Moonwalk in the Motown 25 Anniversary in 1983

[@Unknown-zf2bm]

TonyT Forever no 1982

[@calvinfields2729]

AwesomeDUDE120 I'm 13 it's 1983 I had search it up on Google it said 1983

[@TONYTFOREVER]

See I know my history I love Michael Jackson he's my idol look on my RUclips channel I do covers of his songs and look at my Live Performances I perform Michael Jackson all the time

[@michaelwheatley7669]

Calvin Fields nobody asked for your age lol.

[@rhens8088]

BIG SMOKTON you’re disrespectful😂😂😂

[@PyROphantasie]

The moonwalk is the name of this technique, he isn't changing anything to qualify it being "backwards".
Adding the "backwards" is redundant. The moonwalk backwards would simply be walking forwards.

[@GrilledCheese_Master]

Basically walking but with extra steps

[@therandomnessfacility9948]

He said Backwards in the title because MJ also does the sideways moonwalk

[@sondre_ram2326]

He never said he was good, He just taught you how to do it.

[@ZARATUSTRA8511]

Haha

[@flyingsodwai1382]

Fair enough. I'm not removing my derogatory though. 😈

[@matti2882]

Just a tip: if you stand on your tip toe while you are sliding your other foot back, it gives it more of an illusion, especially if it’s done smoothly.

[@therandomnessfacility9948]

I've learned that doing the Moonwalk a dozen times, just note doing it with your tip toe is extremely difficult, as you are focusing on many things at incredible speed.

[@fatboydashredder9877]

Jon you need to go back to 4th grade and pay attention in class

[@ZodiacCC]

Don't know what 4th grade would do for anyone...you need to go back to that comment and delete it, then come back with a better one.

[@honie_b3029]

Jon he's good he doesn't need to do it just like MJ!!!!!

[@ma50nrc71]

what a good moonwalk , i learned it in seeing your vid 1 time

[@RamPatel-sd8kf]

A good moonwalk should look like that you are walking forward but you are going backwards, also, it should be in motion

[@daquavioushornswoggledilly1553]

This guy is good

[@shakeyboy9342]

You need to move both of your legs at the same time not one by one, one moves towards while the other goes backwards

[@MOHDKAIF-vq5dl]

yes you are absolutely right

[@lowrijones6328]

[@sumitagupta9005]

Happy Teacher's Day!

[@zeldaglitchgamer]

Debuted in 83, CHECK YO FACTS

[@xana1406]

*Back slide
This move is a back slide. Some journalist called it a moonwalk and the name stayed, but the moonwalk is another move (where you walk with big steps, in slow motion, as if there was no gravity). Please use the correct name :) !

[@darkrosed]

He first moonwalked on May 12th 1983.

[@jdzilla1340]

nice one huh

[@TheFashunSkater]

Actually you're not doing it corectlly

[@theprince_jay]

+Lil Zid true

[@mayilikestohavefun909]

how

[@Carepackage65]

Myrsini Moon his doesn't look as smooth

[@xana1406]

There's the base (the decomposition of the move) and the style (or flow, vibe however you want to call that). He is doing the move just fine, he just has a different style than MJ

[@shukesfruits2646]

Myrsini Moon you do it smooth then :-P

[@ollycollier6302]

The mow town anniversary was 1883

[@raeday1049]

Do a evis Presley one

[@rishabhsharma1152]

Moonwalk best steps
1 go to moon
Start walking
And keep walking

[@mugkneetwo9522]

Only mj can moonwalk perfectly

[@VictorHugo-zf2bv]

There are few people who know this, '' Moonwalk was not created by Michael Jackson, and the real name is not Moonwalk and yes Back Slide, Michael just put that name because he thought it cooler, Moonwalk is the step where he made a turn complete in 1995 at the MTV Awards.
