Who Invented The Moonwalk? Hint: It's Not Michael Jackson | the detail.

The moonwalk, if someone would ask you today who invented it, you'd probably answer 'Michael Jackson' without a moment's thought; becoming his signature move after he performed it during a performance of "Billie Jean" on Motown 25. However, the move has existed in some forms since the 1930s, with its true inventor still shrouded in mystery.

I keep seeing this perception too often around MJ dance videos, people think MJ copied the backslide which is incorrect. Michael had, in essence, created a completely different version of the backslide which became phrased as "the moonwalk". Although the backslide and moonwalk are very similar moves, they are much different on a technical scale, the backslide requires you to drag your feet back one at a time to create a dragging backslide effect, it can come off as rather clunky, however MJ completely changed this by forcing you to push off with your standing feet to further create the illusion of "walking forwards but moving backwards". He also added the neck movement to further elaborate the dance move and progress on the theme of "walking forward". I'd go as far as to say that Michael created a whole new dance.

A picture truly is worth more than a thousand words. For me seeing Dancer Bill Bailey do the exact moonwalk moves in the 1943 film "Cabin in the Sky" 15 years before Michael Jackson was born and again in the 1955 Apollo Theater clip, three years before Michael Jackson was born eliminates the need for discussion of the origins, the history, where Michael Jackson got it, what he said in his autobiography, the kids in the street who developed the dance,l Cab Callaway's claims, and all the other discussions. I'm going with the picture.

I think Michael not only mastered the moonwalk and popularized it, I think he reinvented the moonwalk. Before Michael, many performers did the move that evolved over time. It went from the buzz, to the backslide, and then the moonwalk. It went from looking like someone just sliding their feet back, looking like they’re just walking forward but backward, and then looking like the illusion that he was walking on the moon.

I used to have a vhs video of the Electric boogaloos, who were a major popin dance group (active from around 1970s), and I belive it was an interview with popin pete or Skeeter rabit (a crew member), they were explaining the origin of popin dance, much of it was inspired from studying old school pantomiming, and they specifically, studied videos from a French pantomime performer, called Mercel Merceau, from videos they borrowed from a local library. When you look at popin dance, and the moon walk, the 'illusion' is a big part the dance, and when we compare the 'illusion' to pantimime, to me the connection is very clear. Popin taco, who was a member of the Electric boogaloos (and also starred in a film called 'Breakin' 1984) was officaly hired by MJ as a choreographer, for a period of time. MJ actaully shared a stage with Mercel Merceau, once, later in his career in 1995. A simpler version of Backslide probably always exsisted, but then when the popin-dance movement happened, street kids who were incooprating pantomime techniques into popin dance, most likely merged the two into a moonwalk. Also, popin-shrimp (another memebr of Electric Boogaloos) who went by the name of Turbo, did a moonwalk in the film 'Breakin' (1984).

So I already was training it on my own way before Michael presented it on a mainstream level. I was caught off guard with the coin phrase Moon Walk. We called it the Backslide.
