It will be! Breakdancing is officially the newest Olympic sport, and competition will debut at the 2024 Paris games. It’s part of the International Olympic Committee’s ongoing effort to appeal to a younger demographic. The real question is: Will the gold medalist be a TikTokker?

The definition of a sport is not athletic development but competition. So while dance is definitely an artform, all dance is not a sport. The sports of gymnastics and figure skating both have elements of dance.

Dance takes hours and hours of practice just to learn one move. You have to be physically capable to throw your body around into all of these crazy positions. You have to be dedicated, flexible, athletic and strong. It takes so much to be a dancer. However this being said it is also an art form because you create beautiful dances for people to enjoy. It is a sport because of the athletic abilities you need to do it, but never forget that it is to an art.

Technically, to be a sport, the activity must be active and the player, or dancer in this case, must have physical effort and skill.

If you have ever done dance then you will understand that dance is active and the dancer must have physical effort in order to maintain the beautiful art. The dancer has much training to be as flexible, well prepared, and coordinated as a dancer should be. Without skill, this sport would not be a sport, so technically, dance is a sport.

I think Breakdance should be an OLYMPIC SPORT..... SERIOUSLY it is very hard to do and not everyone has the TALENT to do it.....and they should make it as a sport in all the schools in the Entired world.... because it might be ppl who never thought they can do it but if they just give it a shoot at it, they should decide if they are able to do it.....

and if ppl dont wanna agree then all the ppl should VOTE if it would be good for the schools to have BREAKDANCE as a SPORT in all the schools

No, as of 2012, Ballroom Dancing is not an Olympic sport. There is a good possibility of Dancesport (the name for competitive ballroom) becoming an Olympic sport in the future though.

Ballroom dancing has received a certificate from the olympic committee recognizing it as a sport, however, it is NOT on the list of sports to be included in the Olympics as of yet.
