Breaking Open Jam: with BGirl Ambush

The dance community in Brighton has a specific event coming up at The Dance Space on 2 March 2026. Titled Breaking Open Jam: with BGirl Ambush, the session is led by Amber, a member of the Risky Business crew from London. Her experience is quite varied, ranging from the competitive environment of the Red Bull BC One to performing on theatre stages and practicing in more informal street settings. This session at South East Dance is designed to bridge those different worlds, offering a mix of technical training and a traditional jam session where dancers can apply what they’ve learned in a more relaxed, social atmosphere.

The focus of the afternoon is on helping participants develop their own individual style rather than just mimicking moves. BGirl Ambush intends to share the insights she has gained over years of high-level competition to help others gain confidence when entering a cypher or a battle. Because the session is open to everyone from absolute beginners to seasoned professionals, the environment is likely to be a mix of different skill levels all working in the same space. It’s a practical opportunity to refine movement and understand the nuances of breaking from someone who has navigated both the underground scene and major international platforms.

Located at 28 Kensington Street, the venue is easy to find for anyone familiar with the North Laine area. The session is scheduled for 2 March, though some information indicates that these jams might appear on the calendar regularly throughout 2026. The cost to attend is £15.00, which is the standard rate for the session. It’s a straightforward setup: you show up, participate in the training, and then take part in the jam. For those interested in the technical side of breaking or simply looking for a consistent place to practice with guidance, this session provides a clear structure without the pressure of a formal performance.
