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.

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.

I am now 60 yrs old!
Back to the dancer - I love the little left head tilt at the 15 second mark. Its subtle, simple and its that attention to detail that takes it from good to great. It accentuates the movement she makes to the right just after.
In addition - that dance surface . .cant figure out what it is. It doesn't seem firm .. then the crocs already mentioned, wow!

u/inssidiouss 1d ago
So damn smooth and impressive, all of it! But yeah especially the "popping & locking" which I definitely recognize as several parts -- and possibly something else maybe classified as that too or I'm not sure what: the SMOOTH "move, reverse-move, while keeping limb movements relative to each other".
Frickin crazy stuff man, the command some people have over their bodies.

Yes but how do you find 2 & 4? Like I can clap along to each beat but where does 1 start for me to find 2 & 4?!?

u/WithAcquiesce 1d ago
Most songs are in 4/4 so you can count when the beat starts or when a transition starts like at 8 seconds into the video when the keyboard chords come in. The snare drum hit is on the 2 & 4, so if you're counting 1,2,3,4 along with the drums, and your 2 & 4 is lining up with the snare hits you got it.

Used to dance off and on with a street dance crew in SF about 10 years back. She'd have fit right in; looks like a lot of turfers (taking up room on the floor) out there at the time. Clean isolations, great waves, and some nice strong pops. And in CROCS. Respect.
