Il 23 ottobre Mantis è stata invitata come insegnante ospite da Afaliah Tribune per le sue lezioni di pedagogia hip hop alla New York University. Puoi vedere le sue foto con gli studenti nella galleria.

I membri della FCS si sono recati a Filadelfia per l'evento UDEF Breakin' e in seguito hanno partecipato all'anniversario di Breaks Kru a New York.

Abbiamo iniziato le nostre sessioni di pratica sul punto il 24 ottobre.

Grazie a Traci B-Love Bartlow, Halley Halo, Odylle Beder, Paolo e Stella, Elya Fly host dal Belgio, Deana e Shiin Ying Shun, che hanno donato beni durante la nostra prima pratica da inviare alla nostra famiglia di ballerini di Porto Rico.

Puoi partecipare alle nostre sessioni ogni martedì dalle 18:30 alle 21:00.

6 treno per Hunts point 940 Garrison ave.

Kwikstep e Rokafella viaggeranno in Germania alla fine di novembre. I dettagli a seguire si prega di controllare la pagina fan di Facebook di Full Circle Souljahs.

Questo mese purtroppo sono passati due membri ICONIC della nostra comunità di ballo.

Edwin Davila noto anche come Eddy Ed di The Incredible Breakers, un influente equipaggio underground degli anni '80 della scena B-boy di New York e

Raymond Ularte noto anche come Voodoo Ray che si era affermato come uno dei più grandi trendsetter di musica e danza della vita notturna di New York City.

Erano entrambe leggende della danza influenti e ci mancheranno molto.

I nostri cuori sono con le loro famiglie. Possano riposare in pace.

The Company is back from it’s hiatus and the summer has officially come to an end. Here are some highlights from the last few months:

 

From July 27th to August 12th Mantis and and Flonetik visited Paris, Slovakia and Netherlands to attend two of the most well know breaking events in Europe, known as Outbreak and the Notorious IBE. They also took time to visit family and friends. Big shout outs to B-girl Hurricane who invited them to her practice spot just outside Paris and to Willy from Soul Mavericks who brought them to hip hop Huis. Mantis was the runner up in the finals of the “Return of the B-Girl" Battle at IBE versus B-Girl Mad Max who won first place, congrats to them both!

 

Kid Break and Styleski took the win at several competitions this summer.

July 22nd they teamed up for a 3v3 at "Brooklyn's Finest Kids Vol.1" and beat some tough competition for first place. 

Sept 9th they entered and won the 1v1 and 3v3 categories at Kids of New York. They competed in the 3v3 with Concrete Monkey, Styleski entered the 10 and over category and Kid Break entered the 10 and under category.

Congratulations to Kid Break and Styleski!
