“In the beginning, I started dancing all by myself. I’ve learned alone in my room, without knowing the basis of hip hop or Krump. Whether I’m happy or sad, I know I can dance,” said Alexandre, who is typical of Krump devotees. He says it helps him express himself: “I’m very quiet, I don’t talk often… but when I’m dancing, I improvise, everything that comes out is true, it’s the real me.”<br /><br /> Gen Y first met Alexandre and other member of his Krump group BBF a year ago. Then they were just taking the first steps on a very special journey. When we discovered BBF they were improvising some moves at the Gare de Palais, a railway station in Liège, in Belgium. <br /><br /> The buzz they created among commuters helped spread the word about Krump, the urban dance at group specialises in. Soon they got into a project called 7STEPS, working with French choreographer “Grichka”: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Grichka-RAF-NY-Madrootz/104205133048556<br /><br /> Five other groups of young dancers also took part in 7STEP
