Today, at the Giulio Onesti Olympic Preparation Centre at the Acqua Acetosa, the first of the Italian breaking team’s gatherings in preparation for qualifiers for the Paris 2024 Games came to an end.

For the six Olympic hopefuls in training – under the supervision of coach Kacyo and athletic trainer Flavio Mancina – the appointment on the agenda is the second stage of the WDSF Breaking for Gold Series scheduled in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) on Friday 14 and Saturday 15 April.

From 28 to 30 March, the Italian B-girls and B-boys will undergo technical and health tests in collaboration with CONI’s Olympic Preparation and the Italian National Olympic Committee’s Institute of Medicine and Sport Science.

Italy got off to the best possible start on its way to the five-ring event thanks to B-girl Anti-Antilai Sandrini, who managed to finish third in the opening leg in Kitakyushu (Japan).

Breaking will make its Olympic debut in Paris 2024, after having been introduced at the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Games.
