B-boying is a form of hip-hop dancing, which is known as breaking.
It consists of footwork, spinning moves and freezes. B-boying came from
the Bronx in New York. The expression "B-boy" came from Kool
Herc, who was a B-boy in the Bronx. B-boy stands for break boys. They
were called that becuz they danced to the "break parts" in
music. In the
1980īs, breaking spread out of New York to the rest of the world.
B-boying became very popular as "Breakdance" by media. But
when TV stopped showing breakdancing, people thought that it was only a
fad that was gonna burn out. Some B-boys stopped b-boying just because
of wut people thought. After
1985 the "winter period" came for the B-boys, it was a time
when not so many danced, just the few and the proud. It started to come
back around 1990. I donīt know exactly how it happened, but I guess it
was by the support of the real B-boys who never stopped b-boying during
the "winter period". I am tryin to learn how to break
right now, my friend Henry first introduced it to me during my Sophomore
year. I barely kno anything, but I'm learning the basics. It takes a lot
of determination and strength. How does J Tha Breaka sound?
