Dominika Banevič, better known as B-Girl Nicka, was born in Vilnius, Lithuania. At just five years old she started watching breaking videos on YouTube, in between cartoons, and began trying out the moves on the carpet in her bedroom. She convinced her mother to enrol her in classes and they began the search for the best teacher Vilnius had to offer.
Since 2015, when she was eight, Nicka's commitment to breaking has remained entirely unwavering. At the start of her journey, her first and only coach, B-Boy BBloke, developed Nicka's breaking foundation and taught her to dig deeper, beyond the moves, to gain respect for her understanding of the culture, history and roots of breaking. But by the time she was 10, Nicka had chosen to forge her own path, training independently to develop her unique style.
