Music

The most common feature of break dancing music exists in breaks, or compilations formed from samples taken from different songs which are then looped and chained together by the DJ. The tempo generally ranges between 110 and 135 beats per minute with shuffled sixteenth and quarter beats in the percussive pattern.

FashionThe break dancers of the 1980s typically sported

flat-soled Adidas, Puma, or Fila shoes with thick, elaborately patterned laces.

Today's break dancing styles, which emphasize fast-paced, fluid floor moves and freezes, differ from that of two decades ago, requiring more freedom of movement in the upper body.

Battles Battles can take the form of a circle battle and an

organized battle between individuals or groups of dancers .

My break dancing life

I started to dance from 2002 when I entered the university in my country.

I danced for 5 years until I finished my army obligation in 2007.

During the dancing time, I participate in lots of break dancing battles.

Although I don’t dance any more, I was still haunted by the break dancing.
