The first focuses on arm movements, head turns, wave-like and geometric body movements. The second increases the load on the arms, its main figures: running around its axis, push-ups, rotation on the head or arm.
Interesting facts about Break Dance:
- In the 80s, the dance was so popular in Europe that some schools replaced physical education classes with it.
- Break Dance is included in the Olympic Games. Yes, the discipline was first presented in 2018 at the Youth Olympic Games, and the next competition will be held at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Cool, right?
- There is an opinion that this is a purely male style and girls do not do it – this is a blatant stereotype. Girls dance no worse than guys, participate in competitions on equal terms and win over men. In Dream Team, for example, excellent b-girls (girls who dance break) have been practicing for a long time and professionally.
- In the early 2000s, the style was very common in popular culture. It was danced everywhere: at weddings, proms and right on the street. The hype gradually died down, so it may seem that no one dances break anymore. This is not true, it’s just that the style has reached the professional level, on the festival and competition stages. The biggest championship is the annual Red Bull BC One, in which 16 of the world’s strongest dancers compete in front of thousands of spectators.
- At the 2019 World Championships in the Czech Republic, the Dream Team took first place.
