Breakdance competes against ballet, street style against contemporary, and hip-hop measures itself against pointe work. The successful dance format from The Saxonz and HELLERAU is back on the program in April.
“Floor on Fire” thrives on the individuality of the dancers, their virtuosity, and their boundless creativity. What initially looks like a competition between individual dance styles transforms into mixed dance teams that spontaneously showcase their collective skills on the dance floor. In the end, a jury with audience participation decides on the best team – an experience for dancers and audience alike!
Founded in 2013, The Saxonz are now one of Germany's most successful breaking groups. In 2014 and 2015, they won Battle of the Year, securing the unofficial title of German champions, which they won again in 2019. In 2023, they received the sponsorship award from the state capital of Dresden.
The project is a collaboration between The Saxonz and HELLERAU.
