bgirl
She spins, freezes
A bgirl is a female breakdancer—someone who practices the acrobatic street dance style that emerged from hip-hop culture.
The term parallels bboy for male breakdancers, with the "b" standing for "break" (as in break dancing).
The bgirl crew dominated the competition with their power moves.
