The Cidade de Vigo Trophy for sports dance returns to the stage where it started, the Municipal Pavilion of Candeán, and reinvents itself, because for the first time it will be divided into two events, one specifically for a break, which will be held next Saturday, and another for the modal standard and Latin, Caribbean rhythms and choreographed dance, which will announce its date in the coming weeks. The mayor of Vigo, Abel Caballero, presented the first cycle, exclusively for breaking, an Olympic sport for the first time at the Paris Games 2024. “Hip-Hop – a cultural movement that includes breaking – has an extraordinary growth,” said he. .
The head of the local government announced that this is “the first event of the Galician Dance Tour, which will take place in four different venues and we started in Vigo”. From these four championships, the participants will be able to put aside money for the final classification of Galicia.
Regarding the choice of the Candán sports center, the mayor explained that “It is a new and wonderful pavilion that is very suitable” for this sport. The consultant also reminded that the sports dance has already been staged on the slopes of Central, Bouzas, Navia and O Berbés, so “the event is making its own tour of different sports halls.” The City Council sponsors this event, which is particularly important for training sports and so that the students of the city sports school program have a “reference”. The Club de Baile Deportivo Pasos-Bailegalicia is the organizer of the Ciudad de Vigo and teaches Hip-Hop precisely in Candán, within the program of the municipal schools. The organization has revealed that around 200 dancers will compete for victory in four categories: battle, groups, couples and individuals.
