Fatal Sting: 1 v. 1 Breaking Battle
To support their weekly sessions and to further dialogue about gender balance in the hip-hop community, a group of women in San Diego are hosting a dance battle that is open to all genders and will feature dancers from San Diego, Los Angeles, Riverside, and even the Bay Area.
Breaking, and hip-hop in general, encourages participants to find value in themselves and to celebrate their individual identities through powerful movement. The collective of women at Queen Bee’s believe that this aesthetic can help women and girls of all ages face the world with greater self-confidence and self-love. They host a free weekly practice for women and girls to come learn the movement, art, and culture of breaking, one of the four elements of hip-hop and the original hip-hop dance style.
