We just launched a new after-school b-boy / b-girl program for high school kids called BEAT BREAKERS, which will be taught by none other than the legendary Ken Swift.  The pilot program runs for seven weeks starting on April 20th and debuts at the Bronx Academy of Letters, a really progressive high school that emphasizes good writing skills as a path to success.

To kick off the program and give students a taste of what they might eventually be able to do, Ken brought some of the Breaks Kru (WaAak, Nemesis, and MykeToes) to perform a brief exhibition in front of students who were interested in learning more about the program.  Much more in updates and news on this program to come… Peep the vid and slideshow for now:
