Eight years ago, Zeng Yingying began performing her breaking routines to passers-by in a square in Xi'an, Shaanxi province. Now she can dream of dancing her way to Olympic gold for China.
Breaking, commonly known as breakdancing, was officially ratified as a medal event for the 2024 Paris Games following an International Olympic Committee vote on Dec 7, giving b-boys and b-girls like Zeng the chance to strut their stuff on sports' biggest stage.
