Wake
Up Session
Wake
Up Session is a street dance event
created in 2010 who introduced a regular battle dance platform in
Mauritius, with over 50 events organized until now. The events are
always free for public and all artists and staff has always
volunteered to help maintain this platform as often as possible.
Several
categories of dance battles are proposed on Wake Up Session:
- BBoying - Breakdance
- Debout – All Style Hip Hop dance
- Dancehall Battle
- Afro Battle
The
contest occurs as a tournament (Qualification- ¼ - Semi - Final) in
1vs1, 2vs2 or dance crews vs dance crews.
Since
2011, Wake Up Session collaborated with Reunion Island organization
Soul City
so that Mauritius Island can be represented on the Indian Ocean
breakdance championship called ‘Battle de l’Ouest. Each year
since, Mauritian dancers are selected to represent our island on the
Indian Ocean breakdance finals held at Reunion Island.
