Breakography

The Floor Crusaders were formed in the year 2000 after members from Brighton and Chichester crews met. Since then, through various performances and training sessions, the crew has expanded to include 9 active members (including a 10 yr old). The Floor Crusaders benefit from a very diverse cultural background coming from countries such as Italy / Ghana, Russia, Belgium / Spain and the US and deliver breathtaking performances.

The group has performed and taken part in breakdance competitions and events throughout the UK and Europe. They are very active in their hometowns of Brighton, Chichester and Portsmouth. They can be seen performing and enjoying themselves as well as providing lessons for socially excluded young people, students and adults. These classes are often a part of their constant involvement with local charities.
