One of the various dance techniques that was popularized by the legendary singer and dancer Michael Jackson was the Moon Walk. Henot just gave it the name but was also world-famous for doing it almost effortlessly, a technique that is being copied till date the world over.
This technique is done with a gliding motion and gives the illusion of the dancer being pulled backwards even while he is trying to walk forwards and was performed for the first time by Michael Jackson during his performance of "Billie Jean" in march 1983.
It is one technique that needs a lot of practice and focus must be given to how the feet are moved in order to get it right.
