Red Bull BC One
Since its birth in the late 70s, B-Boying has been announced dead several times, but it's still alive and kicking—very much so! Today a vibrant and well connected B-Boy scene exists worldwide.

One of the most important B-Boy competitions is the Red Bull BC One, where 16 of the world's best B-Boys meet to compete and to determine in a 1-on-1 knock-out-battle who is The One.

Extraordinary artistic skills, an outstanding character, and a good reputation in the community are the success formula to get selected as a dancer for the Red Bull BC One. The challenge lies in finding influential dancers from all continents ready to set new standards and showing state of the art breaking.

B-Boy battles have their roots in 1-on-1 competitions. During the past 15 years these 1-on-1 battles have been pushed to the background as crew competitions became more popular at the big events. Red Bull's objective was to go back to the roots and show B-Boying in the most spectacular and powerful way.

After an auspicious start in Biel, Switzerland (2004), the battle moved to Berlin, Germany (2005) and Sao Paulo, Brazil (2006). The 2007 Red Bull BC One Battle took place in Johannesburg, South Africa. In 2008, the best B-Boys of the world battled it out in the heart of Paris!, France!

This year, B-Boying is coming home! Back to its birthplace in New York City!
The Red Bull BC One 2009, will be held at Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan.
