Breakdancing, also known as b-boying, is a dynamic style of street dance that originated in the 1970s in the South Bronx, New York City. It combines acrobatic moves, intricate footwork, and creative spins, often performed to hip-hop music. Dancers, called b-boys or b-girls, showcase their skills in battles, where they compete against each other to impress judges and audiences. The dance form is characterized by its unique elements, including toprock, downrock, freezes, and power moves. Breakdancing has evolved over the years, gaining global popularity and even becoming an official sport in the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympics.
