What year was street dance made?

The origins of street dance as an organized phenomenon can be traced back to the hip-hop movement that emerged in the Bronx, New York City, in the 1970s. Street dance forms such as breaking, locking, popping, and waacking originated in Bronx block parties and underground clubs during this period. Hip-hop culture, including street dance, gradually spread to other parts of the world influenced by elements of street performance found in various cultures that predate street dance.
