Whatever you call it, b-boying, breaking, breakdancing there’s no doubt in anyone’s mind who knows anything about Hip Hop and its origins that this urban dance form was born here in The Bronx influenced by the predominantly Puerto Rican dancers who created this style of dancing which became one of the 5 pillars of Hip Hop.

Are you surprised that The Bronx creates so much and exports it to the world? The Bronx isn’t just a borough or a county or a geographic place, it’s a way of life, a culture, a living breathing art exhibition in perpetual motion in a flurry of dazzling colors representing all the ethnic groups that make up The Bronx past, present, and future.

Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Italians, Irish, Garifuna, German, Black, Jewish, Russian, Albanian, Mexican, Bengali, West African, Jamaicans, you name it we are ALL of it!
