The 4th National Recreational Dance Championship will be held in the
capital in July with both professional and amateur hip-hop dancers
taking part.
The annual contest, organised by the
Vietnam Recreational e-Sport and Electronic Sport Association and called
Floor Killer this year, will see dancers from Vietnam and abroad go
head-to-head in knockout contests.
The event will
feature the world’s six fastest growing hip-hop genres: breaking, hip
hop, locking, popping, waacking and house.
The jury will comprise famous dancers from Vietnam, the Republic of Korea, Thailand, and Japan.
This year’s event will also feature performances by two guest dancers from Germany, Uwe Donaubauer and Louis Becker.
Donaubauer graduated from the FRK Dance Academy in Austria as a
hip-hop, breakdance and locking instructor, while Becker is one of the
best known B-Boys in Germany and studied hip-hop at the Tanzzwiet Dance
School in Berlin.-VNA
