Breakdancing family steals the show on SEPTA subway

B-Boy Funsize is 4 years old and he's the youngest member of Crowd Pleaserz, a family of breakdancing subway performers made up of father Aaron Blackston, his three sons B-Boy Kid Freeze, B-Boy Flex and B-Boy Funsize, and his brother Donnie Thompson.

"Watch him turn up!" the older men rhythmically command on SEPTA's Broad Street Line subway train, as the three B-Boys strike poses on headstands and perform acrobatic stunts up and down the narrow, moving train aisles.

Dancing on the train for the Crowd Pleaserz is much more than just that.

Thompson tells filmmaker Cory J Popp in the fourth episode of Popp's series "Uncover Philly," "We're showing the kids a way to stay off the streets, where they don't have to be out there trapping and robbing people or doing anything wrong to get money."

"If you see your child doing something positive," father Blackston says, "and they love doing it, inspire them to do better."

Indeed the young B-Boys seem to love what they do, dancing and performing in front of different people everyday, as they speak and demonstrate in tandem about their favorite dance moves: "A pose…like this!"
