    Reminds me of one of mine. In the middle of my lesson, my instrument teacher paused to ask me some questions: can you tie your shoes without looking? Do you have trouble unlocking your door in the dark? Etc. Turns out I have little to no muscle memory lol.

      Holy crap is that a thing? I have to pay attention to stuff like that - I will be brushing my teeth and it seems awkward and I’ll realize I’m using my non dominant hand.

      Though my feet do point reflexively when I jump or kick, and arm positions for dance I can feel still, large motor skills my body remembers.
