Meet The Crew | Bboy Jonah | Clean North

Jonah is the newest member of Clean North having just joined in January. Our crew training takes place after the Wednesday class finishes at St. John’s Bowling church in Bradford. I would sometimes come early to see how things were going and that’s where I saw Jonah breaking for the first time. Even then I thought his footwork was fresh. It was fast, it flowed well and I thought that he transitioned from move to move very smoothly. I could tell that he enjoyed what he was doing. Sometimes when I watch some of the younger dancers, they don’t follow their movements all the way through. They don’t quite use their full range of motion or they don’t know how to yet. This wasn’t the case when I first saw Jonah dancing. […]

Meet The Crew | Bgirl Spider | Clean North

I met Spider when she was about 8 years old at the Thursday class at St. John’s Bowling Church, Bradford. She was so small when I first saw her. All she wanted to do was spin on her head. She was and still is one of the rawest around. It’s rare that I’ll hear Spider complain about anything. If she gets knocked down, she just gets right back up. She’s one of the few people that I know that seems to have no fear. If I ask her to try something, she will. If she maybe bangs herself, she’ll readjust and go again. This is one of the reasons why her level is where it is. She doesn’t give up and makes no excuses for herself. […]

Meet The Crew | Bboy 1K | Clean North

I first met 1K at the Thursday class at St. John’s Church 6 years ago. Up until this day, I have never met anyone as charismatic as he is. He is that guy in the city that everyone seems to know. I can’t walk around town with him without someone stopping us to chat. 1K has a big heart and he always does his best to look out for the people around him. Whether it be his family or the other Bboys/Bgirls in Bradford, he will put in the time and the effort to help out without asking for anything in return. […]

MEET THE CREW | CLEAN NORTH

Gain insight into each member of Clean North with our exciting “Meet The Crew” series starting tomorrow evening at 6pm!I, Bgirl Labyrinth, will be conducting interviews and giving my own personal views on each crew member. I joined Clean North in 2014. As the crew has grown, so have I. Personally, I had always hoped to be a part of something like this so to be in this position now, writing to you all, is a dream come true. Clean North are family to me so I can’t wait for you to get to know them in some of the ways that I do. Here is some unprecedented info about my crew Clean North! Who are we? What do we do? We dance! We’re a crew of Bboys & Bgirls based in Bradford, UK. Clean North was established in 2002 so we have been around for over 15 years now. The “what” of it all hasn’t changed. We do everything from competing and performing to teaching and choreographing. We get to travel across the UK and the world through breaking! Clean North have performed for major global companies such as HSBC, Land Rover & Footlocker to name a few. We recently performed as part of the Bradford BID presentation, in collaboration with The Brick Box, last year which was a huge deal for the city! Clean North play an active role within the Bradford community providing workshops and performances throughout the year. We are a Bradford based crew after all so giving back to community is very important to us. We are definitely a diverse group of Bboys & Bgirls. If you saw us walking down the street together, you’d be puzzled as to how/why [...]
