While breakdancing is the more commonly known term, the original B-Boys and B-Girls adopted the word “Breaking” as an ode to the nature of the dancing, which originally happened in between the breaks of a DJ track. The Olympics have adopted the same name throughout the events in order to honour its culture and history and to preserve its authenticity.
Breaking originated in New York in the 1970s as a dance form at block parties. By the 1980s, it was hitting the mainstream with groups like the Rock Steady Crew and the New York City Breakers, who are believed to have innovated some of the moves you’ll see on the biggest sporting stage over the next two days.
The sport’s techniques include standing footwork known as top rock, and floor movements known as down rock. In Breaking, there are also tricks allowed. These are known as the power moves (twists and spins) and the freeze. You probably know the popular ‘baby freeze’. Similarly, all freeze movements in Breaking are when breakers freeze in poses while using their heads or hands for support. Another reason to pop down to La Concorde tomorrow!
