Red Bull BC One All Stars Tour in Sri Lanka

View(s):

Four of the best B-Boys of on the planet Red Bull BC One All Stars will return for a second trip to the island.  The Red Bull BC One All Stars are a team of nine of the world’s best dancers, representing the best of the best in the scene. Together they showcase the art of B-Boying. Each crewmember is an outstanding individual in his community and each brings a certain style, skillset and original movement to the group, from hardcore power moves to intricate footwork.

‘B-Boying’ is a unique style of street dancing that originated from New York in the early 1970. The style is very popular in South Korea, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia and Japan.  The Sri Lanka tour of ‘B-Boying’ has just completed with the Sri Lankan B-Boy Championship at the Galle Fort (Moon Bastion) on Friday 27 September.

The tour started in Colombo on 23 September and then they travelled to Galle. Sri Lankan B-Boys met with Roxrite (USA), a proud owner of more number-one titles than any other B-Boy. Pelezinho (Brazil), the master of acrobatic, powerful moves and flips, will also be here. Also in tow will be Wing (South Korea), the newest member to the crew, who earned his nickname from his lightness in step and jaw-dropping aerial moves. And last but not least, two-time Red Bull BC One World Champion Lilou (Algeria) too was in action. 

They shared their knowledge of both Hip Hop culture and the incredible art form of B-Boying in workshops in Colombo, from 23rd – 27th of September.  From these workshops, the Red Bull BC One All Stars selected the most accomplished local B-Boys who was capable of battle it out at Galle Fort, to be crowned Sri Lanka’s B-Boy Champion. The event is becoming an annual highlight event for all Sri Lankan B-Boys!
