Breakdancing around the World: Australia

Though breaking started in the Bronx, NY, it has since grown from a U.S. fad to world-wide phenomenon. I‘ll periodically post a “Breaking all over the World” blog to showcase b-boys and b-girls from all around the globe.

Breaking never completely died, it just went underground for a while. In the late 90s and early 2000’s, b-boys and b-girls starting resurfacing anywhere you could hear a beat.

But there were different approaches towards the dance. You had styleheads, who focused more on footwork, and powerheads, who focused on some of the more dynamic moves. Few mixed power and footwork, but those who did would leave a fresh impression every time they threw down on a dancefloor.  

In 2002, a group of these b-boys from the land down under formed Fresh Sox in Melbourne. They were amongst the first on the continent to mix power and style and now have members Japan and Indonesia.
