Dancing in the street. Breaking and battling
Breakdancing emerged in New York in the 1970s. The style of movement, which combines dance, gymnastics, and boxing was performed by kids, often in teams, in competitions at street corners. Breakdancing was part of the larger hip-hop culture that also incorporated rappers, DJs, and graffiti artists. The Rock Steady Crew from the Bronx was one of the first hip-hop groups and became world-famous. The group still organizes a Rock Steady Crew Anniversary every year in New York to celebrate hip-hop culture and its main focus is always a street dance competition The Anniversary attracts competitors of all different ethnic types from all over the world and over 20,000 observers.
