Practice tips:
1. Turning should be flexible. The prismatic sliding step can be completed in a clockwise direction.
2. When turning and sliding, you can combine body and arm movements.
Supplement:
Explain in detail that sliding and emptying is a visual illusion effect that requires more practice. Here are the best exercises I could find for moonwalking, why not give them a try?
Step 1: Find a pair of tighter flat shoes. You can use soft-soled shoes at the beginning.
Step 2: Make sure the floor you are practicing on is not too rough and try to find a smooth surface.
Step 3: Stand with your feet together, with your left foot slightly forward than your right foot (the front of your right toes should be in line with the middle of your left toes).
Step 4: Then lift your right heel so that you stand on the front of your right foot as if you are walking, keeping your left foot in place (be careful not to move it).
Step 5: When you lower your right heel, shift all your weight to your right foot and slowly drag your left foot backward so that your left toes are even with your right heel. When doing this step, your left heel should be slightly off the ground, and don't step down with your left foot, otherwise you won't be able to slide. Make sure you slowly lower your right heel and move your left foot at the same time. Controlling speed takes a lot of practice.
Step 6: Keep practicing the above steps until you are sure that you can move without any obstacles.
Step 7: Once you've mastered the movement above, extend your left foot forward, but not touching the floor, making it look like you're kicking right against the floor. Move it one foot away from the front of your right toes. Do not raise any part of your left foot excessively.
Step 8: Move your left foot back to the starting position and lift your right heel again. Bend your left leg and repeat step 5. Keep practicing until you understand all the essence, can do it freely, and be recognized by others. Finally, you can overcome gravity, so you can moonwalk like a pro.
Step 9: Once you are proficient in bending your right foot, switch feet and try using your left foot Do the same movement. Lift your left heel and lower your left foot as you slide your right foot back. Support your left foot, extend your right foot, then lift your left heel, then lower your left foot again while Move your right foot back slowly.
One sentence: Do you know how to moonwalk? If not, I can teach you. < /p>
3. Then the right foot touches the ground with the heel facing inward, then the toes of both feet face inward, and then the same!
MJ changed the direction of the forward slide slightly and moved his legs to the side, which became a side slide!
Because the forward slide is too pure and does not look good. If you don’t believe me, you can slow down. Look at MTV for the action, it is the so-called forward sliding technique.
The step in the forward sliding is to the left, while the horizontal sliding is to the right and the footwork is different!! Please pay attention!!
To learn space walking well, the venue is very important. Note: the venue should not be too slippery or too astringent. Otherwise you won’t be able to perform well in other venues.
First, choose leather shoes with smooth grounding properties and practice tiptoe tapping. This action is the key to the success or failure of spacewalking.
Second, slide your left foot back about 30CM. Then point your left foot to the ground and slide your right foot backward. Be sure to maintain a balance.
Third, practice it repeatedly
Place your center of gravity between the legs, your upper body must be kept level with the supporting foot, and your ankles must be strong.
As for shoes, as a rule of thumb, the lighter the better, the thicker the soles and the elasticity, but not the grip. To dance Mike's dance, it seems that the soles of the leather shoes must be hard, otherwise if they are too soft, you will not be able to dance. For example, when dancing the backward sliding step, which is the moon dance, the soles of the leather shoes must be hard, otherwise the toes will not be able to lift, and also It just doesn't look good. The soles must be thick and elastic. This is the most important thing. There is a saying that "rhythm is the soul of dance." Elastic shoes can drive the rhythm of the body and reflect the soul of Michael's dance. The shoes should be light, so that the shoes can move the body. The lightness and elegance of Michael's dance are fully displayed. It is natural that there should be no grip. Just imagine what it would be like to moonwalk wearing a pair of basketball shoes?
This is the most real content, MJ is like this in most stage performances!
Let me teach you now: Billie Jean’s MTV version does not have a “moonwalk”, but as a concert repertoire, it must be included. You can go to the video store to buy: Kuala Lumpur Concert and take a closer look.
You should pay attention to two points when doing movements: 1. The distance between the steps and the angle between the toes and the ground (approximately 90 degrees) 2. The expansion and contraction of the head, the force of the neck.
If you can land on the balls of your feet when you first start practicing
But if you are a master, your toes must be strong enough to support your body on your toes. This is what you see in the original break dancing movies. In this way
If the strength of the toes is enough, even soft-soled shoes or even slippers can be used to lift the body with the strength of the toes!
I think it is like this: first point the toe of one shoe to the ground, lift the heel high, then press the heel back, and when the other foot is pressed down, it will immediately tilt up. Lift your heels and point your toes, like this,
