U.S. breaking star Sunny Choi, the first American woman to qualify for the Olympics in breaking, believes the sport should be in the Olympics.
“One of the most beautiful things about breaking is that there aren’t tons of barriers to entry; you just need a floor and a studio to practice in,” Choi, who uses “Sunny” during performances to express her vibrant personality, told uInterview in May. “Anyone can get started, so anyone who watches breaking can do a Google search and find a space to start.”
The Queens native noted that she was very grateful to represent New York but sometimes worried since she believed that she was an outsider to the community.
Choi’s younger brother, who is a break dancer, introduced her to breaking in 2007.
Before her Olympic career, Choi performed as a youth gymnast and served as a director at Estée Lauder after attending the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Business School. The breakdancer’s career went international in 2014 when Choi competed in global events, winning silver at the 2019 World Urban Games and gold at the 2023 Pan American Games.
