Dances of the world
Break dancing is a relatively modern form of dance, which started in the late 1960's in New York City by African American youths. A combination of acrobatic dance moves and martial art techniques, the high-energy dance form is very competitive in spirit, resulting in break dance battles. In addition to New York City and other urban centers in the U.S., you might catch break dancers in action in Tokyo's Yoyogi Park. Luis Sanchez Saturno
