Promising to be even bigger and better than last year and bringing together some of the best b-boys from all around the globe, Breakin' Boundaries returns to London in March, bringing some explosive dance action, while raising money for Oxfam International.
It will be the fifth anniversary of the annual hip hop extravaganza and this will be no ordinary night. Packed full of dance battles and shows featuring the top eight breakdance crews in the UK (inc. Soul Mavericks from the UK B-Boy Championships & BBC’s Ballet Boys), stars from every continent will compete against each other to help raise money for charity.
Furthermore, there will be a live PA from EoDub featuring Reeps One, the UK’s current number one beatboxer, and also back by popular demand are the Tuca E Mel live funk drummers, coming straight from Brazil.The popping competition will also allow some of the best poppers from around the country to show you what they’ve got, as they pull out all the stops to be crowned the winner of Breakin’ Boundaries 2010.

If you haven’t witnessed b-boying at first hand before, don’t let this opportunity pass you by to discover the underground world of some of the globe’s finest dance athletes. The Seven2Smoke battle will test the stamina and creativity of each dancer and will leave you wondering, ‘how do they do that?’ as you marvel at moves you wouldn't think were physically possible.
Proceeds from this event will go towards Oxfam International, a leading charity to help put an end to global poverty. They work directly with communities to influence the powerful in a bid to ensure that poor people can improve their lives and livelihoods and have a say in the decisions that affect them. Oxfam also helps to provide aid to those in need in countries which have been struck by natural disasters or emergencies.
The event takes place on Thursday, March 11, 2010 at Tutu's, Kings College, Surrey Street, WC2R 2NS and tickets for Breakin' Boundaries are priced at £7 in advance or £8 on the door, available from KCLSU Student Centres and Ticketweb.
