Why is it called breaking? Breaking started in the 1970s, in New York City, US. At parties, dancers got up to perform during musical " breaks", which gave breaking its name. Breaking is now an important part of hip- hop culture around the world. | How to breakdance? Breaking has four kinds of moves. A " top rock" is when a breaker dances| while standing up. A" down rock" is when a breaker dances on the floor, moving their arms and kicking their| legs. A " freeze" is when a dancer stops in the middle in a cool position, like standing on their head or| balancing with one hand. " Power moves" are really fast spins and twists that look like the dancer is flying or| spinning like a top. | ▲ Anyone can be a B- girl or a B- boy, which is what breakers call themselves. Victor Montalvo is a B- boy from the US. " Breaking is amazing. It doesn't matter what color you are, who you are, where you're from: it welcomes all kinds of people," he says. " It's all about peace, love, unity, and having fun." |
