Classification of street dance
Based on action, hip-hop can be divided into two categories: hip-hop and break dancing.
Break: technical street dance, including style movements and strength movements. Dancers are required to have high strength, flexibility and coordination, which is a highly skilled sports dance, so they are first loved by domestic teenagers. Teenagers who dance this type of dance are called B-Boy/B-Girl (boys or girls who dance Breakin). B-Boy/B-Girl does not excessively pursue the performance of technical movements, but pays more attention to the performance of dance to music. For this kind, we call it "break dance".

Now with the enhancement of dance concept, this situation has changed, and even B-Boy has begun to practice, and many all-round hip-hop players have appeared.
