The debut of breaking in the Olympics is not only about competition; it’s about legitimation of the dance style and inspiring new participants globally.
While performances like Phil Kim's gold win spotlight the sport's potential, reactions to other dancers like Rachael Gunn reveal the complexities of public perception.
For many breakers, bringing breaking to the Olympics was about much more than medals; it was about internationalizing an art form and engaging new audiences.
The journey to Olympic inclusion has been long, and while there are challenges ahead, the community continues to advocate for breaking’s rightful place on this grand stage.
