'The Olympics, it just feels a lot more serious.'
Known among the uninitiated as"breakdancing" -- a term roundly rejected by its practitioners -- breaking blends artistry and dance with acrobatic moves and was announced as part of the Paris programme in late 2020.
A fundamental divide remains between the old guard and the new generation over whether breaking could maintain its roots as an art form while joining the ranks of elite Olympic sport."I always felt like we're on the same level as athletes who are in the Olympics," he said. "There's definitely a level of pressure there," said Diaz."Just trying to remain calm. Trust the process. Trust your coaches. Trust your training."
The world championship bronze medallist did not particularly care about the Olympics early in his career, telling Reuters, "I was like, 'Oh, it's just a gold medal, whatever, and you're forgotten after that'."
