很期待! 筹备了1年的R16 Bboy Championship终于来到了马来西亚!我想每个Bboy也和我一样期望踏上这个舞台和拥有同样兴趣及爱好的朋友一较高底。请别误会,我并没有资格比拼但是我会是每个成功享受这个舞台的舞者后的成功女人!

如果你不熟悉R16 Bboy,我并不惊讶毕竟这个爱好(可以这样形容吗?)或舞蹈文化近年来才逐渐被转型,演变成了国际年轻舞者的新玩意儿。近年来真正保持Bboy舞蹈文化的较劲舞台只有5个吧!当然其中一个就是R16 Bboy Championship,其他的包括UK Bboy Championship, IBE, BOTY & Freestyle Session。

看看我贴上的短片吧。一个没有国界,肤色及语言之分的舞台,让全球年轻热血的舞者透过肢体语言发挥友情,团结及和平的讯息!所以不要再以为Bboy 只是一个街头游戏。

马来西亚的朋友们,快来和我们一起加油!今天就游览www.r16seasia.com下载报名表格吧!截至日期为17th April 2010.

仅有一场的马来西亚竞选赛将在24 April 2010, 1300-1800,Berjaya Times Square LG Floor Concourse进行. 由来自国外评审评选首两组代表马来西亚进入竞选 R16 Southeast Asia Final。

R16 Southeast Asia Final将召集泰国,越南,新加坡及马来西亚的首两对在马上演一场好戏!在8对Bboy 的竞选的过程中,我们可以想像多么激情及享受那一刻!而成功脱颖而出的唯一队伍将代表Southeast Asia到韩国竞选全球R16 Bboy Championship 2010!

还等什么?快报名啊!www.r16seasia.com
该玩意儿是由Korea Tourism Org及LG Electronics (M) Sdn Bhd呈现赞助,由GF World负责筹备。同时获得8TV的极力宣传配合,所以不要错过即将播映的最新消息及大赛后的转播。亦勿忘在15/5/2010,7-11pm, KL Live Centre的精湛比赛咯!
