Menno van Gorp is one of the most accomplished, competitive B-Boys on the breaking scene, having won almost every major solo title there is.
Known on the worldwide breaking scene simply as Menno, he was born and raised in the city of Tilburg in the Netherlands and now lives in Rotterdam. He started breaking in 2001, when he was around the age of 12 years old. At that time in his life breaking was extremely popular among the youth in his hometown, and Menno also had two older cousins that he looked up to, who were both also breaking. With the dance and culture going on all around him, Menno took up the art form as well and has built a career for himself that has surpassed anything he ever imagined he would achieve through the dance of breaking.
