Break-boy (Bboy)
Breaking, also known as b-boying/b-girling, is an athletic style of street dance from the United States, commercially coined as “Breakdance” within the mainstream media. While different in the measure of variety accessible in the move, breakdancing predominantly comprises of four primary movements: Toprock, Downrock, Powermoves and Freezes. Breaking is commonly set to tunes containing drum breaks, particularly in hip-hop, funk, soul music and breakbeat music, albeit current patterns take into consideration a lot more extensive assortments of music along specific scopes of rhythm and beat designs.
Breaking was made by the African American youth in the mid 1970s. The pioneer breakdancers were the first Generation Bboys known as Trixie (Lauree Myers), Dancing Doug (Douglas Colon), A1 Bboy Sasa, The Legendary Smith Twins and Clark Kent. The gatherings incorporated the “Zulu Kings”. By the late seventies, the move had started to spread to different networks and was increasing more extensive popularity; simultaneously, the move had topped in fame among African Americans and Puerto Ricans.

In the age where Radikal Forze (one of Singapore’s pioneer crews) were up and coming and started to hold their anniversary jam as we know today as Radikal Forze Jam that started out hosting crew battle competitions for just Bboys. In recent years, the event has grown and started hosting international All-Style battles.
