You pick up a lot of new things moving to such a huge and diverse place like Jakarta. One of those things is the Melbourne Shuffle, which is supposedly a very happening dance in its city of origin. Hmm, how come I didn’t hear about it when I was in Wollongong or Sydney?
Anywho, I saw quite a few people doing this dance in Jakarta nightclubs. It’s a very unique kind of dance that I somehow can only imagine Asians doing. I know this dance comes from Melbourne, but I just can’t imagine a non-Asian Australian doing this dance. It’s just so typically Asian.
So when I found this video of an Asian kid doing the Melbourne shuffle inside an Asian grocery shop, I just HAD to post it.
Boys and girls, for your viewing pleasure…
