Have you heard of these dance moves?

The lego leg? A clock blender? Helicopter?

Don't worry. By the end of the summer, you may know all these words!

Paris is preparing to host the Olympic and Paralympic games, and a new sport will be making its debut.

Breaking is also known as breakdancing.

The dance sport is characterised by stylised footwork, acrobatic movements and freezing, where the B-boy or B-girl stops all movement, often upside down and balancing on one hand.

From power moves like windmills and head spins, breakdancers really push the limits of physicality and creativity.

It was in the streets of the Bronx, New York, in the 1970s that breaking emerged as a revolutionary dance form, deeply rooted in hip-hop culture.

It's come a long way from there to the world stage in Paris.
