Gretski

Dance your way through life and nothing can go wrong!

When did you start breaking?
I started in 1997, so I’ve been dancing for almost 10 years now.

What made you start breaking?
I’d seen it on TV, so me and my friends started practising.

How would you describe your style?
Allrounded style and that’s the way it is.

What is your cultural background?
I'm pure Icelandic blood, raised in a very small community, a town in the western fjords of Iceland, Isafjord. I moved to the capital in 97 and been doing my thing ever since.

What inspires you?
Many things: good dancers, good music, art...

How is the scene in your hometown or in your country in general?
It not big enough, we try to throw jams and events as often as we can, open practise sessions weekly to keep the B-Boys and B-Girls going and get more people into the scene.

Do you practice any other dance forms?
I try to study other dance forms related to B-Boying. I enjoy dancing so if I get the chance to learn some basics, no matter what the dance form is called, im up for it.

What do you expect of the RED BULL BC ONE?
I expect to have a whole lot of fun, be inspired, meet new people, that’s all for now.
