European 2022 breakdance champion Danis Civil, aka Dany Dann, hopes to become one of the first breakdance Olympic medalists in history. The event makes its debut at the Paris Games this summer, but won't be part of the Los Angeles Games in 2028.
Dann, 36, started breakdancing "by chance" when, at the age of 14, he passed a hall in Saint-Laurent-du-Maroni, a city in the overseas department of French Guiana bordering Brazil, where his cousin was taking part in a training session.
