Dressed in loose oversized T-shirts and trousers with colourful wristbands and caps, the young audience at the 'Street Project' were treated to a dazzling performance by break dancers.

The battle between Street Rockers and Freestylers provided one of the many highlights of the extravaganza.

Although the event included the three other elements in hip-hop - emceeing (or rapping), deejaying (or turntable) and graffiti (or spray painting) - break dancing overwhelmed everything else at the event.

Break dance lovers saw a host of participants, including crew founders Ray, Kargo, Sam and Poyin, display their wonderful skills in a four-hour, non-stop marathon.

'After months of practice, it's time for me to show off the fruits of my labours before so many people,' said Poyin, the Freestyler who has just achieved his ambition of becoming a professional dancer.
