Breaking in the Olympics

Last week, four new sports were announced to be included in the Paris Olympics in 2024, and one in particular was the subject of much attention: that sport is breaking. While there has been excitement at the inclusion of breaking, it has also been met with skepticism. We discuss what this could mean for breaking as a dance form and the breaking community.
