B-boying, also known as breakdancing, is a dynamic style of street dance that originated in the 1970s in the South Bronx, New York City. It combines elements of acrobatics, dance, and music, often performed to hip-hop or breakbeat tracks. B-boying is characterized by its energetic movements, including spins, freezes, and footwork, and is typically performed in a competitive setting called a break battle. B-boying has four main components: toprock, downrock, power moves, and freezes. Toprock involves standing dance steps, while downrock is performed on the ground. Power moves are acrobatic maneuvers that showcase strength and skill, and freezes are poses that dancers hold to emphasize their style. B-boying has become a global phenomenon, influencing various dance styles and cultures.
