You’re out enjoying the city when you find a group of people on the sidewalk. They are standing around some street dancers. The dancers are young, and they’re wearing backward baseball caps, baggy pants, and sports shoes.
As the music plays, the dancers take turns showing off their movements. They slide their feet back and forth before they drop to the ground. Then, they spin around on their heads and backs. Sometimes, they even stop their bodies for a short time in the middle of a move.
The dance they perform is break dancing. The young break dancers move with lots of speed, power, and energy. You can see that they have a great deal of talent. You can also see their love for break dancing. It’s really cool to watch.
Break dancing is a form of dance full of energy. It mainly has four kinds of movements. They are toprock, footwork, power move, and freeze. Also, the music that is used has clear drum breaks.
Breaking got its start in New York City in the early 1970s. Young people fell in love with it, and thanks to TV, movies, and newspapers, the dance quickly got popular in many different cultures. By 2010, there were independent competitions around the world.
The rise of breaking isn’t over yet. In 2024, it will enter the world stage as an official sport at the Paris Olympics. There, 16 male and 16 female break dancers will go head-to-head for the gold. This is great news for breaking and break dancers everywhere!
