The Midwest Monsters Breakdancing Crew (partners of The Hip Hop Congress of Rockford,IL) is hosting the third annual Battle Schmattle, which is a breakdancing competition on Saturday, Oct. 10th, 2009 5pm–11pm at the nCenter (220 S. Madison St., Rockford, IL 61104). The breakdancing competition gives individuals a place to showcase their talents to music provided by a live DJ while giving them a chance to win prizes for being the best dancer of the competition.

The breakdancers will show the foundations of hip hop dance as they compete head-to-head with dynamic moves in the form of flips, spins, tricks, and more. The competition will be judged by judges from the Chicago, Madison and Rockford area whom are respected worldwide for their dancing abilities. This competition will present those in attendance with a real-life perspective on what it really means to be a breakdancer, while providing competitors with a positive place to share their talents. The music provided by a live DJ will range through various generations and genres of music, which will enhance the experience for all in attendance. Breakdancers from Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, and several cities around the local area will be in attendance and everyone is more than welcome to attend and/or participate. The competition cost $5 to enter and watch, and all of the proceeds will go directly towards supporting the dancers by providing prizes and funding future events. Please support the dancers in this fundraising event as they physically defy the laws of physics.
