Definitions
1
One of the five elements of vogue femme. You drop into a low squat on your heels, then kick the feet out one at a time, scooting forward in time with the music. Named for exactly what it looks like: a duck waddling. Looks effortless, murders your thighs. It's a foundational element judges expect to see, so a sloppy duckwalk gets you read.
“She duckwalked the whole length of the floor without breaking the beat once. Stamina for days.”
