  • The B-Boy Summit Internationally Acclaimed B-Boy/B-Girl Event
    THE B-BOY SUMMIT INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED B-BOY/B-GIRL EVENT Produced by No Easy Props OVERVIEW The B-boy Summit continues to be a major trendsetter in Hip-Hop street dance, art and music culture. Established in 1994, The Summit presented innovative ideas in Hip-Hop culture, offering a conference forum complete with competitions, performances, panels, workshops, and a marketplace for consumer friendly products marketed toward the Hip-Hop community. Never content with success, The B-boy Summit continues its mission to bring the hottest street dance, art, and music above ground to the masses. The B-boy Summit has grown into an internationally acclaimed 3 day festival incorporating all aspects of Hip-Hop in different plateaus, including the most intense battles, rawest circles, theatre performances, a DJ/MC Talent Showcase and live aerosol art painting. The B-boy Summit was created in 1994 out of the need for a community orientated Hip-Hop event that encompassed knowledge of the history of Hip-Hop culture and the skills of B-boying and B-girling. At that point in time B-boys and B-girls didn’t have a platform in which to come together, dance and pay homage to the traditional dance of Hip-Hop. Each year the event has expanded to encompass B-boys, B-girls, MCs, Aerosol Artists, and DJs from across the globe, steadily building into what is now the foremost Hip-Hop cultural event in the world. More recently, The Summit has become one of the most important events for Lockers, Poppers, Freestyle and House Dancers to take part in during The Summit’s Funk Fest.

However, controversy surrounds which specific area in New York created the cultural phenomenon, called Hip Hop. The history concerning which part of New York created this influential and multi-billion dollar movement is documented in 1985. The battle rap included rappers from Queensbridge (MC Shan & The Juice Crew) versus rappers from the South Bronx (KRS-One & Boogie Down Productions). Even though, New York, is noted as the birthplace for Hip Hop culture, Hip Hop’s roots were developed before one city or state declared ownership of the cultures’ creation.

  • Ultimate Battle Masters, Le Retour
    Communiqué de Presse ULTIMATE BATTLE MASTERS, LE RETOUR Après le succès de la première édition en 2018, qui l’a hissée d’emblée dans le top national des compétitions internationales de breakdance, « L'Ultimate Battle Masters (UBM) » - revient sur le territoire du Grand Paris Seine & Oise, le samedi 28 septembre 2019 au théâtre de la Nacelle à Aubergenville. UBM2, la garantie d’un spectacle explosif Pour cette deuxième édition, le Centre de la Danse Pierre Doussaint (CDLD), équipement communautaire, et l'association KDA élargissent encore les horizons de cette compétition, en dépassant les frontières de la France et de l’Europe, avec l’accueil d’une équipe aux couleurs du Brésil. UBM 2, c’est la garantie d’un spectacle explosif qui allie performances artistiques et prouesses athlétiques de très haut niveau dans une ambiance festive, qui s’adresse à un public intergénérationnel, averti comme amateur. Le Breakdance, une entrée prévue aux JO 2024 Le breakdance ou « breaking » est emblématique en France comme dans le monde entier de l’engouement pour les cultures urbaines. Une ferveur populaire et planétaire pour cette discipline artistique et sportive qui justifie pleinement son entrée en 2024 aux Jeux Olympiques Paris. Les rudiments d’un battle : 2 b.boys (danseurs), plusieurs B.boys (armaguedon) ou 2 crews (équipes de danseurs) se jaugent et se répondent du tac au tac en rivalisant de technique, de musicalité et d’originalité au milieu du cercle (cypher) pour exécuter leur chorégraphie et convaincre le jury comme le public afin de l’emporter. Le DJ a un rôle prépondérant car c’est lui qui choisit les musiques (breakbeat) qui vont entrainer les danseurs à se surpasser sur le rythme, secondé par le speaker qui harangue le public et fait parfois office d’arbitre : rappel des règles, maître du temps… A l’issue de chaque battle les juges ont la lourde tâche de déterminer le vainqueur en s’appuyant sur des critères précis mais qui laissent part à la subjectivité.
