Martin Luther King Jr Day

Source

Today we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. who used his most precious feet to fight for freedom and called others to use their feet to stand up for what they believe in. Remember those who have walked to bring about the changes that we get to enjoy today. Never underestimate the power you have to make positive changes in our world and know that with belief, creativity, and ingenuity anything is possible!!!

How Does He Do It?

Last week Dr. Feeny and I traveled to Las Vegas for a Marketing Summit and had to stop in front of Bally's to watch a performer.

But how do they do that??

I did a little research and here are the steps on how to moonwalk:

1. Get a pair of shoes with flat soles (i.e. converse or keds)
2. Get on a flat surface that won't provide much friction (i.e. wood floor) ideally you would practice at a skating rink
3. Point your left toe on the floor (but it really doesn't matter which foot you use first)
4. Place your right foot ~1 foot in front of left foot
5. Slide your right heel back so it's even with your left foot
6. As soon as you slide it back, snap your right heel up so it's pointed (like step #3)
7. Repeat!
8. You are now a Michael Jackson Moonwalker!

And here is what you can look like if you keep practicing!
