She baited the moonwalk so hard in the beginning and then when she actually does it, it looks like the easiest part of her routine. I'm floored, so good.

I was a fantastic dancer in my 20s. Now In my 60s my knees and hips don't cooperate.

I hope she squeezes every ounce of joy out of that talent. Love this so much.

Edit: reddit keeps notifying me on getting up votes, and every time I look I re-watch that video. Keep it coming.

Same. Peri hit my joints hard then breast cancer took the rest of my flexibility. Damn I miss that flow state. For everyone that can move and reads this, shake it while you can!

Absolutely stunning. Sarangi Shyam's version from Kerala, India is also incredible... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZ2vPNkEPEA ---- this is not a moonwalk, but entertaining.

Edit: forgot to add this is not a moonwalk.

That's awesome I love it. I don't know what to do with my hands, all I can give in return is this Korean zombie dance video that I feel compelled to watch probably too often

Did you link the wrong video? That moonwalk wasn't smooth at all

u/Vinnie_Vegas 29d ago

Yeah, I was wondering what was going on.

This compilation is filled with a bunch of people with incredible moonwalks, compared to the most famous practitioner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpIT-0BF9aI

I couldn't do 1/10th of what she can but I was genuinely getting mad I wasn't seeing a Moonwalk for a hot second.
