Workshops will take place in popping, locking, breaking, hip hop and house, with a B-Boy Bootcamp lead by Poe One to progress advance breakers beyond their abilities, followed by the Jam and Juice evening of dance theatre performances.
The b-boy battle comprises of solo battles between eight international invitees against eight UK breakers. Last year B-Boy T-Killa from Norway won Just Jam 2011, defeating B-Boy Zomas. T-Killa will return to defend his title against the new line up.
