i'm going to try to learn a new
challenging skill every day by the end
of five days we will see if i can become
a boxer skateboarder breakdancer artist
and a ballerina with no experience this
is brian who is a pro mixed martial arts
fighter and i definitely am not so
hopefully he can teach me
[Music]
that looks really hard break this down
nice and slow at first one two slips so
the punches come towards my face turn
out of the way of it now this punch is
right there and the box is standing like
this people try to take you down on the
street or something here i can defend
hands up
yeah
that's how we're gonna start with just
one two
turn like this like this yeah
right so try it just go just go one two
slips like with her yep one two
yeah there you go do it again
okay let's try it again
i know it's really fun so now you're
going to add the cross hook then we'll
put the kick in
one two slip
what's
that's the turn get out of the way
that's it yeah
now when you kick
yes yeah you did naturally and as i turn
and straighten my leg and i hit with my
shin i picture myself with a sword or a
baseball bat and i want to go through
them like with your legs yeah like
trying to cut them in half a lot of
people just think you just throw a kick
right but it's more too you got to do
that from spinning around so it looked
like this so i was going to throw a kick
all right so just try the kick so bring
me up there getting better
all right
there what you got to think about is
when you you got to be able to move
right so you want to be able to get out
of the way right
you slip
somebody's in your bathroom you want to
get out of whatever way i know whatever
you need to do to get a kicking door in
stop okay
all right awesome work that looked great
that was intense but i think it was a
success let's move on to the next one
today i'm going to teach myself how to
break dance i could be completely wrong
but i feel like this one might be a bit
easier for me to learn i thought
breakdancing was going to be easy but
once i started trying to teach myself
this first move i quickly realized i was
wrong i'm trying to do the move where
they spin their legs around in a circle
and i am so confused after several
failed attempts of what i think is
called a helicopter i finally figured
out that in order to do it i needed to
start with my legs in front of me and
not behind like i was doing these
definitely were not perfect but they
were getting a little bit better each
time so close okay
this is going to be it right here
the next couple moves came pretty easily
to me until it was time to try a kip up
surprisingly i have never tried this
move before after trying this the hard
way many times i finally got it and then
i realized a kip up is way easier if you
just start it with your legs straight
teaching myself to break dance was
pretty hard so i almost gave up but then
i remembered you can't get good at
something without practice i'm going to
try to put together a routine with these
break dancing moves now and it probably
won't be perfect but like this video if
you think it's not bad for my first try
[Music]
the only way i've ever used a skateboard
is like this so today i'm going to try
to learn how to skateboard standing up
at first i was very ambitious and
decided the first thing i was going to
learn is an ollie which is basically a
trick where you jump on top of the
skateboard my first couple attempts were
not that bad but then after a few major
fails
some other skateboarders came over and
told me that i need to learn how to ride
it before trying any tricks riding the
skateboard was pretty challenging at
first
but eventually i finally got the feel of
it
[Music]
time to move on to the next skill
my next goal is to learn to paint i had
absolutely no idea what i should paint
or where to start so i decided to try to
follow a bob ross tutorial on youtube if
you want the chance to win my painting
then like subscribe and comment why you
want it
[Music]
i quickly realized that my painting was
not looking like the one in the tutorial
but i kept working at it anyways
[Music]
[Applause]
this painting was supposed to be of a
sunset over a lake but you can't really
tell by looking at it
so sadly i think today's skill was a
fail but let's just move on to the next
one
today i will be attempting point before
i try anything too hard i think i should
break in these shoes a bit but by the
end of today my goal is to be able to
hold a needle on point
[Music]
doing ballet on point without proper
training can be dangerous so i
definitely don't recommend trying it on
your own like i am
once i felt like my feet were warmed up
it was time to try the needle first with
a bar i obviously don't have a ballet
bar at my house but i figured this
railing was pretty close
doing a needle with the bar was pretty
easy so i moved on to trying to do it
without holding on to anything
[Music]
i don't know how this happened but the
ribbon literally just fell off of my
point shoe
[Music]
it took a few tries but eventually i got
it
[Applause]
by the time i got the needle my feet
were hurting so badly that i could not
do any more point but speaking of
needles shout out to today's hashtag
anna mcnulty challenge feature who got
her needle
[Music]
