Ralph Macchio can do more with his feet than just crane kick.

The Karate Kid: Legends star sat down with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos on Friday’s Live with Kelly and Mark, where he shared that he took tap lessons growing up.

“I wanted to be Gene Kelly,” he recalled. “My dad had me working at the laundromat learning the value of a dollar. And my mom and I used to watch the old movie musicals when I was a little kid. That’s where I was sort of bit with the bug of wanting to perform.”

Consuelos asked Macchio if the dancing helped him when it came to learning karate to play Daniel LaRusso in the Karate Kid films, which Macchio felt it did.

“It’s choreography, right? One you pint your toes, the other you flex, I guess,” he teased.

Ripa chimed in, “Do you still tap?”

Macchio hesitantly replied, “A little bit.”

He then stood up to try out his tapping, warning viewers that his performance would be “really cold” and there was “no preparation” involved.

“But let’s see if I can make some noise,” he added.

Macchio began tapping, acknowledging that “it’s a little sticky.” Nonetheless, he earned applause from the studio audience and praise from Ripa, who called his performance “very impressive.” Once Macchio took a seat again, he quipped, “Yeah, we did not have that in the notes.”

Ripa echoed “that was not in the notes,” teasing that “once in a while, really good things happen.”

Consuelos agreed, “It sounded really, really good.”
