Breakdancing around the World: India

Posted on February 24, 2009

Though breaking started in the Bronx, NY, it has since grown from a U.S. fad to world-wide phenomenon. I‘ll periodically post a “Breaking around the World” blog to showcase b-boys and b-girls from all around the globe.

I used wonder if India, the world’s second most populous country, had a strong breakdancing scene. Despite Battle of the Year and other global events, the nation was never represented. But with so many people there, and with their booming economy, it was only a matter of time before some desi’s started making noise.

Coming straight outta Mumbai, UD Kombat Crew has emerged as one of the country’s top crews and is helping to spread breakdancing culture all over the sub-continent.

Like they mention in the clip, this crew is in high demand. They’ve done commercials, started a breakdancing school in Mumbai and have also been on India’s Got Talent.
