New member in NCCU break dance club

Last Thursday, we had a new member, Teng Jin Gao. I introduce him to all of you because he is so special. He grew up in America. To our surprise, He is a Tibetan. Tibet is a mysterious country for most of us. What I though Tibetans before are all dressed in cassock. (袈裟) and all they are sincere and serious. However, Teng Po is very optimistic and very energetic. Although he is just a beginner, I can feel how actively he want to learn break dance. Unfortunately, as long as I wanted to share my experiences to him, I found myself not knowing how to express in English. Learning break dance for over three years, it's the first time to teach others in English. Thanks to another member, she interpreted for me. But it's really embarrassing that I have learn English for over six years but I still can't express clearly in it. Maybe form now on, I need to spend more time in English and don't doze off in English class. Without doubts, English is quite important for me.

First showcase in NCCU

Last Saturday, I joined the frist showcase in college life. It is really amazing that I
can perform on the stage again. I think performing to other people is quite different from practicing. On the stage, we share our happiness and enthusiasm to audiences. We enjoy dancing and we hope that those audiences can enjoy our performance. Even though I don't dance much part of show, I am still proud of all members in NCCU break dance club. Thanks to those who always encourage me. They truly help us a lot because confidence is very important  for dancing. Without them, I might not do vert well on the stage. This experience is really impressive and is helpful for my dancung life. Unfortunly, I had to join other class so that we didn't took a picture. Too bad!


By the way, Red Bull BC One international took place in Brazil on December 9th. If you are interested in it. Here is the link and hope you enjoy.

Be proud of Taiwan. Formosa Crew

Recently, an important international competition, Battle Of The Year, just ended in France and Formosa Crew won the forth place. This news really encourages all b-boys and b-girls in Taiwan. Exactly, every year Taiwanese crew can get very good grade in Battle Of The Year. Sometime we won the third place or just lose the final game. Although we don't win the champion, I think sooner or later we will get it and all Taiwanese will be proud of these dancers.

                                                                    Formosa Crew


Battle of The Year is one of the biggest game for B-boy and B-girl. All country can choose one of the best team on behalf of their own. One part of the game is showcase. The other is battle. First All teams need to perform a show that all themes can be used. There are five judges scoring all part of showcase, skills, creativity, Integrity, and so on....... The top 4 teams can join the battle part. Four teams battle with each other and five judges score again. In the end, which teams get the most grade in showcase and battle. They win the champion.By the way, there is also one-o-one battle.

Spotkight:Bboy Domkey

Today, I want to introduce a great break dancer, B-boy Domkey. Recently, b-boy Domkey,who comes from America, won The Red Bull BC One North America Qualifier. He has danced for ten years and I think he is really a great B-boy. While watching B-boy Domkey trailer, I can always feel his power and his enthusiasm for break dance and that just make me excited. No matter which elements of break dance, I think B-boy Domkey did very well. Domkey has his personal style.You can feel he is really enjoy dancing. Every move he did is quite clean and fast. Every part of his freeze or power move are also smooth. You'll never feel it tired and hard when seeing him dancing. I regard hims as one b-boy that is worth learning for me. And I hope one day maybe I can be a good b-boy like him. 











Red Bull BC One is an international b-boy competition organized by the energy drink company.It is an one on one b-boy battle. Sixteen best  b-boys around the world compete for the first place every year, and there are five judges to decide which one win in the end of the game.Usually every one has two rounds to show himself. While in semi-final battle, there are more chances to fight for the champion.







Here is a vedio aboht b-boy Domkey.

The Same Language!!!

    During the past two weeks, we seldom practiced together becasue our free time could not match. For bboys and bgirls, more people practice together, more inspiration we get from other dancers. Although break dance club in NCCU is smaller than most clubs in NCCU, there are lots of bboys and bgirls in other schools come to NCCU and join us. Last Friday, many dancers came  to NCCU. We didn't know each other before. However, we danced the same style. All of us enjoyed danceing and this helped us know others more easily. We talked about many bboy super stars,such us Hong 10,Taisuke,Roxrite and so on. We shared our feeling and we cheered for others' great moves. We were strangers but we seemed to be a family. We came from different places but we shared the same language,not by speaking, but by dancing. I think break dance is international language. We share, we dance, and we just have fun together. All bboys and bgirls around the world share the same language.

Dance in college for the first time

  Last week I joined our school break dance club. They are all very nice and dance very well. I met my high school friend Kido and he introduced me to other b-boy and b-girl.(We call those who dance break dance b-boy and b-girl) I also saw many beginners practicing some foundation. They really made me remind of the time when I first joined the break dance club. Break dance is really hard and difficult at first. A lot of skills can not be understood. Even if you know how to do it, your body may not keep up with your mind. It is absolutely frustrated but only you gave to do is practice again and again and never give up.
  After warming-up, I tired to do some movement that i had done in high school. Without doubt, no one can dance well if he don't practice every day. Suddenly, I thought that I have not danced for two years because of the college entering test .Now I have  a lot of things to do . I need to find my losing skills .So I regard myself as a beginner before I can dance as well as myself in high school. Maybe I can get all the skills soon and enjoy break dance with all my college friends.
