Our Story
Dynamic Rockers have been moving, competing, and building since the late 70s — a crew forged in New York City's streets and shaped by four decades of hip-hop culture.
The Dynamic Rockers were established in 1979 in Queens, New York, bringing a fresh and explosive energy to the early breakdance scene[cite: 2]. Originally formed by Eddie Ed (Osvaldo Luna), the crew stood out by fusing traditional Bronx footwork and uprocking with gymnastics and acrobatic power moves. This high-level athletic foundation gave the crew a visual intensity that set them apart, helping propel breaking from underground park jams into the national spotlight.
In 1981, the crew cemented its place in hip-hop history during their legendary battle against the Rock Steady Crew at the United Skates of America in Queens, which was followed by a historic televised rematch at Lincoln Center. These iconic moments, along with early national media appearances, helped introduce b-boying to mainstream American audiences for the first time.
At the heart of the Dynamic Rockers' longevity is a profound story of family and generational legacy. The crew's leadership and traditions were passed down from foundational member and longtime leader, Glyde, to his son, Kid Glyde, who continues to guide the crew into the 21st century as its current president. Today, over 45 years later, the Dynamic Rockers remain an active, driving force in the culture[cite: 2]. Through ongoing competition, international mentorship, and our structured curriculum, we are dedicated to helping the next generation Break out Your Shell and Find your voice. The foundation has never changed: respect the culture, elevate the art, and always show up for the community.
We didn't just dance — we built something that outlasted the trends.
Breaking is more than a sport or a performance — it's a living art form rooted in hip-hop history. We carry that history with us everywhere we go.
Countless battles across the country and beyond. We compete hard, win with respect, and lose with grace. The cypher is where character is built.
We run workshops, mentor young breakers, and show up for the scene. The crew is only as strong as the community around it.
