Tiny Toones - The First Hip-Hop Center of Cambodia

Tiny Toones Cambodia uses breakdancing, Hip-Hop music, and the contemporary arts as creative tools to empower the youth of Cambodia to live healthier lives free of HIV and drugs, build a more promising future by furthering their educational opportunities, and become positive role models for their community.

Tiny Toones welcomes all youth to participate in its programs, regardless of gender, social-economic status, physical handicaps, family background, or other personal disadvantages. The education, health, and arts curriculum of Tiny Toones consists of free daily classes in English and Khmer to supplement the children's public schooling, and the integration of HIV education and drug prevention in a fun, child-friendly approach through fun games, skits, and performances. Peer mentors are available around the clock to provide positive support and to teach the elements of Hip-Hop, including breakdancing, rapping, and DJing.

I love seeing others breakdance, but my arms and my body cannot move properly, I think I just can't do any of the movements with all my limbs, no matter how much I try and learn from my friends ..

I'm Sorry, I don't want to offend anyone here... but I don't think Breakdance is for Cambodian people. It changed the Cambodia Pride by doing so. I love it, but I just want them to learn Cambodia Dance instead. Cambodia Dance is much more beautiful then Breakdance.

In the US, break dancing are usually done by teens who quitted school. They are typically criminal gang members.
Picture below are gang members doing break dancing in Cambodia. Some of these people are criminals in the
US that they are deported back to Cambodia. They terrorized Cambodian Community in the US. I hope they
don't do the same thing when they are in Cambodia.

That is a very good story to hear. I hope they continue to do good things for Cambodian kids other than break dancing. You know as well as I do that break dancing is NOT highly regarded in the US and you also know the perception of it is less than desirable. I am affraid that the Cambodian kids will end up doing criminal things. I am affraid and really AFFRAID that you and your group are trying to introduce a bad culture to Camodia.

I´m not in this breakdance group and I don´t have contact with them.
I see him on the German TV and they said he help Kids with HIV and kids
at the street.Much Kids in his community don´t have parents and they
don´t learn only breakdance , they learn also english,maths and Khmer Culture.

I love my Khmer culture so much! But for a country like Cambodia we also need our young generation to know everything not only our culture.

I'm always open heart for every break dancer in Cambodia because I consider it just a execise sport and most of them love their body so much..! I mean every dancer ,sporter.. They are always prevent themself from HIV. Drug...!

This is the reason: Cambodia a lot of HIV, drug..!

Not every family in Cambodia has ability to support their children to have a better education.

If we can't do just late them do it!
Break dance and XGame almost the same way because it's perform by young generation.

So maybe young Cambodian bring to country with Cup or Champion from the above Breakdance or Xgame in one day.

Peoples if over study can be error some day! So should have some execise!
Did you all see alot of young and old P-penian dancing everyevening at every garden...riverside...!!!

It's not our culture BUT.... Think again!
