    How Smart is your Right Foot?

    Just got sent this in an email and have been trying all morning to prove it wrong!!

    How Smart Is Your Right Foot?
    This is so funny that it will boggle your mind. And, you will keep
    trying it at least 50 more times to see if you can outsmart your foot.
    But you can't!!!

    1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and
    make clockwise circles with it.

    2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right
    hand.. Your foot will change direction!!!


    I told you so... And there is nothing you can do about it. Make sure you
    pass this on to your friends... They won't be able to believe it
    either!!!

    Must be something wrong with me then.. because I can keep it going clockwise whilst doing the figure 6 with my right hand... and yeah, I'm getting some really strange looks in the office now!!

    Mine must be really clever then I managed to do it right on the 2nd attempt!

    Nothing to boast about though, my left foot's so stupid I can't even draw a circle with it!

    Ok I failed this time.... I can't move my left foot clockwise and draw a figure of 6 with my left or right hand!

    I must be pretty slow, it took me to the 4th attempt....

    I find this hard enough using my left hand, let alone my left foot!

    The compulsion for the foot to join the hand is quite scary...I thought I was in control here!

    Me too, in all combinations of right and left feet and hands...

    But, to be fair, I think these tests are generally much more accurate when done on 'normal' people - dancers spend more time than most people thinking about where their feet and hands are and what they're doing, so we're probably slightly more coordinated and able to control said appendages (I'm making no comment about the ability of dancers to control any other appendages they might have, I'll leave that to CJ).

    I can do both feet cw, both hands figure 6 at the same time first go

    Which is particularly funny because the directions in Ceroc to go cw or acw usually confuse me

    Be Well,
