Emerging from the streets of the Bronx, New York in the 1970s, Breaking, also known as breakdancing, sees competitors, known as b-boys, b-girls and crews, blend cutting-edge urban dance with remarkable athleticism. This unique partnership will support the growth of Breaking culture, community and competition, through a series of activations and content, enhanced by instax's unique ability to capture life's unique moments in the form of photo prints, and convey emotions that go with them.

Headlining this partnership is the creation of the new FUJIFILM instax Undisputed Masters, a series of global gold ribbon events which sees the champions of the most prestigious Breaking competitions compete together in a world series Masters championship.
Breakers from all over the world will bring their best moves and unique styles to the arena, and audiences will witness the most incredible action as competitors go head-to-head all captured by the power of instax instant photography, creating truly one-of-a-kind photos with the unique feel of a physical print.

Launching in August, the partnership will also be brought to life in two new movies shot by Fujifilm, featuring the worlds top breakers who competed at the inaugaral FUJIFILM instax Undisputed Masters event in June 2022.
