Why what we do matters
Children and teenagers need spaces where they can move, create and belong to a community. Breaking combines physical activity, music, creativity, improvisation and social interaction.
Movement
Coordination, mobility, fitness and body control.
Creativity
Improvisation, musicality and individual expression.
Personal growth
Discipline, patience, independence and the ability to learn from mistakes.
Belonging
Interaction across generations, cultures and experience levels.
Opportunities
Access to mentors, camps, competitions and experiences beyond the training room.
We do not aim to shape identical dancers. We aim to help them find their own style and get better at what they choose to do.
One ecosystem, five projects
Asociația Break4Kids is the independent, non-governmental organisation in Bucharest that coordinates every project. Space Cadets, Hueco Mundo, The Cirquit, First Orbit and The Cadets are chapters of one story, not separate organisations.
Breaking school in Bucharest
Space Cadets – Breaking Club opened on 4 November 2025. Kids (6+) and Legacy (16+) classes on two levels, Monday to Friday, in Romanian, English and Ukrainian.
The first class is free.
