Olympic organizers are proposing that breakdancing be included as a sport in the 2024 Olympics.
The Olympics will take place in Paris in 2024 but the International Olympic Committee must make a final decision by December 2020.
Their statement reads: "We are pleased to see that Paris 2024’s proposal for new sports to the Olympic program is very much in line with the reforms of Olympic Agenda 2020, which is striving to make the Olympic program gender-balanced, more youth-focused and more urban."
Other sports being considered are climbing, surfing and skateboarding. Meanwhile, surfing, sport climbing and skateboarding are all set to make their Olympic debut in Tokyo in 2020.
