Which type of dancing became a new sport for the Paris 2024 Olympics?

Breaking.

Breaking is a style of dance that originated in the United States in the 1970s. It took form in the lively block parties in the Bronx, emerging from hip hop culture, and is characterised by acrobatic movements, stylised footwork and the key role played by the DJ and the MC (master of ceremonies) during battles.

Breaking made its Olympic debut at the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires in 2018. Following its outstanding success, breaking has been chosen to feature on the Paris 2024 Olympic sports programme as a new sport, along with surfing, skateboarding and sport climbing.

One of the interesting things about breaking competitions is that they consist of one-on-one battles. In one-on-one battles, two breakdancers face off, taking turns to showcase their skills. Battles typically consist of multiple rounds, with each dancer getting a chance to perform. They take turns, attempting to outperform their opponent in each round.
