Get ready to feel the rush of adrenaline as Motion/Matter: All-Styles Dance Battle returns to Perelman Performing Arts Center.
After the wild success of PAC NYC’s sold-out 2024 showdown, the one-and-only Cebo is back to host a high-voltage battle that will light up Lower Manhattan! Top-tier dancers from NYC’s club scene and beyond will throw down in a fierce face-off demonstrating locking, popping, breaking, and all the moves that define the culture. A panel of all-star judges decides who takes the cash grand prize, but Motion/Matter: All-Styles Dance Battle isn’t just a competition — it’s a celebration of passion, a testament to dedication, and a showcase of the transformative power of street dance.
