Joanna (24, B-Girl Joanna) and Serhat (26, B-Boy Said) share the same passion: breaking.

In 2024, Breaking will celebrate its Olympic premiere in Paris. They are happy about the opportunity to make their art form more visible to society. At the same time, it is a challenge to do justice to the breaking culture and the Olympic system. Serhat has been a member of the “Sankofa” crew since 2008. For Serhat, being able to live and dance freely is not something that can be taken for granted. Serhat lives in Munich and was also born there, but he is Uyghur. Joanna lives with her family in Dresden. Her friend Felix, B-Boy Rossi is a founding member of the “Saxonz”. He brings his daughter Feenja into the relationship. So, Joanna bears the responsibility of a mother early on, because Feenja’s birth mother has died. At the same time, Joanna is doing her master’s in psychology. Now Joanna faces the challenge of dividing her time between family, studies, and her passion, breaking.
